Their community and faith have been a huge part of how they've managed to get through this.
Of course, they have had a lot of healing to do, but they've shown a lot of grace and understanding towards the sisters.
Today we are going to be discussing the tragic, senseless murder of Brooklyn Sims.
18-year-old Brooklyn Sims was described by friends and family as a soft-spoken young lady who just had the best heart.
She had a bright smile and an amazing sense of humor.
She could walk into a room and make anyone laugh and smile.
She was the life of the party and she could make friends with just about anyone.
Brooklyn also had a two-year-old daughter, Casey, who she loved with everything she had.
All she wanted in life was to be the best mother she could possibly be.
Casey was Brooklyn's entire world.
At the time, Brooklyn and Casey were living in Pensacola, Florida.
The father of Brooklyn's 2-year-old daughter is a 20-year-old named Keith Agee, who had been living in Alabama at the time.
Keith and Brooklyn had been in an on-again, off-again relationship for about three years at that point.
During that time, they had lived together on and off, breaking up and making up multiple times.
According to those who knew both Keith and Brooklyn, their relationship had been rocky from the very start.
Brooklyn's friends said that Keith never treated Brooklyn well, but because they had a baby together, she was trying to co-parent with Keith.
All she wanted to do was give her baby the best life possible.
And if that meant continuing to co-parent with Keith, that is what she was going to do.
While co-parenting, they would still see each other romantically from time to time.
Keith later described that they would still sleep together once in a while.
