JACKSON, Tenn. The daughter of a Haywood County Sheriff’s Office deputy who was killed outside a bar in 2008 is coming home to speak with students about her experience with gun violence.
On the outside, it may have looked like just “girl talk,” but Ashlee Akins’ message to high school students at Liberty Technology Magnet High School on Thursday morning was much more.
“A lot of people have a lot of advice, but a lot of people don’t want to put the action or the work in, and I’m here to do that,” said Akins, a published author, television personality and influencer.
