St. Augustine, Fla. – Tristyn Bailey’s sister placed an empty jar on the witness stand.
When she began her victim impact statement Wednesday, Alexis Bailey turned to Judge R. Lee Smith and said, “114.”
She then began dropping heart-shaped, aqua-colored stones into the empty jar, making sure each one made an impact as it landed. The courtroom was silent during the nearly 2 minutes it took Alexis to drop in 114 stones.
“One for each of the 114 stab wounds that my sister had to endure,” Alexis said.
