Susanna:

I can say that I feel vindicated that we have been able to come so far that we can have this court case and that the story, our story is being heard through the press, through the news, through the court, and we are hopeful that we can get the justice that we want.

The family requested prayers for wisdom for the lawyers, witnesses, and the judge.
