Emma Walker's legacy gives a voice to victims of domestic violence
My life changed forever on the morning of Nov. 21, 2016, when I found my beautiful daughter, Emma,had been murdered in her sleep. Those are words...
Brooke Morris of Knoxville, Tennessee, was a vibrant young woman and a loving mother to her 3-year-old son. In 2011, Brooke was stalked and murdered by her ex-boyfriend and boss. She was shot three times while running for her life on the side of a Roane County road. Her body was found by a passing driver.
"I hope it shows younger girls if you are mistreated in any way, you need to get out and stay out. Domestic violence is a huge problem," Brooke's mother, Tina Gregg, said.
When the man charged with her daughter's murder left the state, Tina was never notified. She instead had to find out on Facebook.
Her family honors her legacy by sharing her story and fighting for victims' rights. Read more about Tina's experience as a victim of crime here.
