What IS heartbreaking is that a beautiful, vibrant and loved 17 yr. old child (with a bright future ahead of her) had her life taken from her family, true friends and all the wonderful people she touched. It is unjust. This CHILD, as well as, her family did nothing to have such a horrible tragedy happen! I am amazed and shocked by the "descriptions", accusations and projected defense that people feel the need to post online! It is sad, hurtful and puzzling... pathetic to read the lack of sympathy, lack of awareness of the severity of the situation, lack of respect for her family and lack of basic empathy for human life! We will continue to have faith that justice will be done and the TRUTH will be unlocked. Brittany Nicholas and her family are loved.
