Shannon Smith Remembered
5 Years Later
We are still keeping Shannon's memory alive and reminding the public of the horrific event that occurred
on July 24, 2000. Justice still has not been meted out but hopefully keeping the public and law enforcement aware of
this tragedy, it may prompt some new training and save someone's life.
