I've never followed a case with so many google alerts afterwards as to money raising by others and such compassionate updates on the family, and efforts for reform.
This one hit my mailbox today... an interview with her mother. (1:43 minutes video and article)

In the video, 1/2 of it her mom speaks about the Senate Bill for registered violent offenders.
"Mrs. Vaculik, 45, said the public concern and compassion that followed was stunning. Supporters wrote emails, cards, and posts to Facebook. They would stop Mrs. Vaculik and offer their story, or provide a book that gave comfort. .....Only two months ago could Mrs. Vaculik read the notes others left at Ms. Joughin’s viewing. Old friends wrote of her kindness, and it was affirming to see what they recognized, she said.
Another planned event is the second annual Keeping Our Girls Safe Memorial Ride. Motorcyclists leave at noon Sunday from Toledo Harley-Davidson, 7960 W. Central Ave., to the Fulton County Fairgrounds.
Mrs. Vaculik called it a therapeutic event for Ms. Joughin’s boyfriend. Proceeds too will fund free self-defense courses for area women. They wish to one day implement such classes into the schools as a required course. All three of Ms. Joughin’s relatives said they want to see the death penalty for Worley if convicted of the capital offense. It’s a matter of justice, they said......Mrs. Vaculik recalled that the prosecutor asked if she would accept a plea bargain. She said she could not, believing there are other victims and those families would need closure first. If that happened, she said she could accept one."
ETA: BBM.. Also...
Question: Is there a verified insider on this case at WS? I cannot recall.
:grouphug: as this family has done so much in her memory. It's outstanding. And Kudos to the Toledo Blade for keeping up with the coverage.
