i hear where your'e coming from, about your opinions. also seriously, there are things that were said that weren't true..because my father was not involved in any drug schemes and the book says that he was..my sisters pic is in the book, she's the little blonde girl...my aunt was very smart she had a 4. 0 average and she was beautiful..wish you could have seen her. she was hella cool too..

there was more to it than the book. and imma tell you..my grandfather thought that she was not a virgin..a part of him committing to this heinous crime was for that reason as well as others..apparently since you cant fix death, the autopsy showed she still was a virgin and thats why she was buried in a white gown..i mean she did have it rough on her..

i was too young at the time to really know what she was going through, but i faced so much criticism that i now know how hard it was..i'm married to a spanish man and that was hell..i mean my dad still doesnt talk to me and its been 2 years..my other family does..and i mean my aunt's story really changed the way ppl think..they dont murder their kids anymore they just disown them...

its not fun, but i told everyone if they dont want their daughters to see what's out there, they shouldnt raise them in america in the first place...i know you may think that i'm sticking with my family, but i'm not ,and i'm not against them either..family is family and you cant change that.. whether they be good or not, thats not for me to judge..but murder is murder and cant be justified...now that's my opinion
