Marissa Pierce (Daughter of Maurice Pierce)

Like, I would like to know when was the last time, you know?

It felt like...

A series of unfortunate events that led to the arrest and murder of Maurice is what it felt like.

There were so many things that had to play out and went wrong that resulted in his death.

It's hard that they knew the truth and they just didn't care.

And that it didn't matter that they were ruining four boys' lives.

I feel that today.

Like nobody really cares about the four boys or the harm that it caused them or our families.

And it's still...

focused more on the serial killer and the victim's families than the four boys.

Um,

I mean, I think it was a little cathartic to go through it, write the statement, say what I wanted to say.

I honestly thought it would never be solved in my lifetime.

So it was kind of a relief to finally just hear it all.

I mean, the DA did apologize publicly.

That day was a good day for us.

We're hoping that out of it,

all of the things that went wrong will be brought to light and some serious reform will, you know, come out of it.

Oh, it's definitely not enough for his life.

It was very hard to try to say that that was enough.
