sandi. do you feel like cliff reed got away with murder? yes. absolutely. absolutely. but sandi s family doesn t blame the prosecutors. i think they took on a big undertaking, and i mean, i m thankful. i believe they did more than their job, those two. the good news for sandi is the world knows cliff reed killed her. she did not abandon her children. she did not go missing. he killed her and put her in the woods, and that is worth something to know that and say that. while justice for sandi may not look quite like what anyone imagined, her family is taking solace in the beautiful person sandi was and the reflection they see of her in her children. your dad says that he sees your mom in you and in your sister. do you think she would be proud of you and what you ve accomplished?
