Jessica's favorite color was purple, too. Everyone wore purple in the courtroom during her case, including ARS' family.

A beautiful park was built in Jessica's honor; all the playground equipment is purple:

The lovely picture of Jenise posted upstream with her cat reminded me of this photo of Jessica, who also loved animals. She is seen in many photos with animals; this one is my favorite photo of Jessica, the one with the duck:
