R.I.P. Missy! We will find who is responsible for this horrible tragedy & bring you justice!!
Until we make the penalty for leaving a hit and run 25 years in prison, people are going to keep killing people and driving off…What is the difference if they had shot this woman in the head with a gun and then drove off? Our society is so messed up….
