After the verdict came down, Ian's family members headed outside hugging, crying, and embracing one another then released four blue balloons in the air as a sign of justice being reached for them.

"We finally got some answers and we finally got justice for Ian after two years of waiting and not knowing," Jennifer McGregor, Ian's second cousin, said. "It's still going to be hard, and there's still, of course, questions on why and how could something like this happen. We feel a little bit better now."

"I'm very pleased that we have justice for Ian today," Baker said. "That was the goal when we started this case. We thought it was a murder case from minute one, and it was a murder case. That's what the jury found."

"I am hoping now that we can lay Ian down to rest and that we can grieve and mourn the way we were supposed to," Elizabeth McGregor, Ian's great-aunt, said.

"I think he got what he deserves," Jennifer McGregor, Ian's second cousin, said. "He can't hurt another child."

Before the sentence was imposed, Elizabeth gave a statement, in her broken voice, to the courtroom explaining how she has custody of Ian's older sister who now has behavioral issues, nightmares, and goes through counseling.
