We have experienced every parent's worst nightmare. We live with this pain for the rest of our lives and a hole in our hearts that can never be filled. There will always be an empty chair at the table and at all of life's milestones that her children reach. This was all taken by the hands of another human being who has been given charges as if he simply made a mistake.

It was not a mistake to lie about what happened. It was not a mistake to treat April like a piece of garbage. It was not a mistake to send Denzel in the bathroom, traumatizing him forever. It was not a mistake to tamper with evidence. It was not a mistake to falsify a report. This was intentional homicide of an innocent person. I am a Christian woman with faith that I didn't even know I had.

Through this tragedy in my life, I have found that I am much stronger than I ever thought. I won't walk around with an anger that strips me of the person I've been created to be. I will walk in the spirit and not the flesh.

As I read this statement, there are simply just words. These are simply just words to everybody. This is part of a procedure for sentencing and considered to be a privilege to read a letter. You allow me to say a few last words to the courts and the murderer of my daughter. To me, this was my flesh and blood. This was not just a file for your filing cabinet like it has been treated since day one.

This was my child. This is not just another number in the log of how many homicides happened this past year. This was the mother of my grandchildren. April Holt was a person. April Holt was a case that I pray makes an impact to the entire justice system of all the wrongs that happened in her investigation and that through these mistakes, changes are made.

I will make it my mission as her mother to get policies and procedures changed so that no family has to endure grieving while investigating their own child's case because the system failed them and refused to listen or see the facts presented to them numerous times. When you hear the name April Holt from this point forward, hear an echo of the change that is to come.
