      To true. She was my sister she will never be forgotten. I have tried to get the full details of the people involved in her murder.the case base been closed until 2055. Which means I will have to live until I am 103 years of age.not much chance of that. The official reason the case is closed.is so the families of the murders do not get any problems from the public what a load of official bullshit.
