And I just remember they didn't want to leave until I had someone come to my house. So I called my one friend and I just said, I said, Patty, Haley's dead. Because I just wanted them to leave my house because I just needed to grieve more. or process without it being with strangers. Even though they were the nicest gentlemen, I mean, I wouldn't want to have to do that job. Oh God, I'm sorry.
She did give them his name, but she was hesitant to press charges.
because of the cost of each tire added all together, the price would be to a point that it would be considered a felony. To my understanding, if you commit a felony, I don't think you're allowed to continue in the nursing school at Decker. That's not something I've looked into to see if that's a fact. But I think it was something that Haley was very concerned about.
That's the conversation that transpired between Haley and myself. And that was my understanding of why she was hesitant to press charges.
She hasn't said anything else has happened, nothing else has transpired, and it seemed like he took some responsibility for his actions. So I kind of thought, well, everything must be okay. Haley handled it, he paid for the tires, and everything's back to normal. But Haley never really told me to what extent he was stalking her.
I don't know if because she didn't want me to react in the same way I did with the tire slashing, or she just thought she could handle it because she knows Orlando and didn't expect anything that tragic to occur.
She trusted him. So that's probably the biggest thing. She trusted him.
A detective came down and that's when they told us how it happened.
Then they separated us all and they were asking us all questions. The police officers were asking us questions, the detectives were asking us questions. On Sunday, I went up to meet the DA and his office.
It was very upsetting to the university students because this is someone that, whether they knew her or not, this is somebody that is their age. They don't think about that they're going to die. So when somebody their age dies, it's almost like a reality check. And it's very disconcerting to them. And it was, you know, the campus reacted.
They closed classes in the nursing school just to let the kids, you know, process, process what's going on to a colleague, a schoolmate.
I was very happy that they had found him, he was arrested, and then it was just a waiting game.
I got a call from the D.A. He said that they're not extraditing Orlando. And right away, I said, well, what does that mean?
As it started moving along, everything started to come together. They both complied that they would have the trial on Skype, or whatever they called it, video camera, in between the two court systems.
And they had an interpreter so when we didn't understand it she would explain everything to us.
The judge was female. They had a female prosecutor who was such an advocate for Haley. Very impressed with her. I was very proud of everything that she was doing.
We wrapped everything up and then I think 30 minutes to an hour later, they delivered the verdict.
He got the full 30 years, and that was the fullest extent of their law.
I'm glad he got what he deserved to the fullest extent of the law, but death is forever, and he's not going to be there forever.
Since Haley's trial, I've been on a mission to bring awareness to femicide. trying to enact femicide as a law in the United States. Many countries in South America have adopted the law. In Africa, more and more people are starting to adopt the law because it is becoming so much more prevalent. And even here in the United States, femicide has become much more prevalent.
