"TriffieWadmanwas more than a mother to me, she was my role model from the tme I could walk," she said.
"There are things that my mom will never get to witness and things I'll never get to share with my mother. When I graduate high school, or the day of my prom, or walking me down the aisle when I get married."

SerinaWadman, Triffie Wadman's sister, said it was too painful for her parents to give a statement, saying noparent should have to bury a child. She said Triffie's father "goes to her grave each day to be with her."
As for herself, Serina Wadman said she had shut herself down to the point were she didn't want to go out.
"You marked me as that poor girl'ssister," she told the court. "Ya know, the girl shot in the street."
She said Triffie should have been there for her,to hold her hand when she delivered her baby four months premature.
