Justice for Amy Velasquez Brutally raped and murdered 1983 in St. Maarten.

The Issue

Ashton Lake brutally raped, murdered then threw my sisters body in the lagoon to cover up her crime. 38 years later he is asking for his freedom. For 38 years the nightmares never stopped, the pain never stopped, why should he be allowed his freedom when he took my sisters life the day before her 6th birthday. He has shown no regret and was bragging about the way he murdered her. I was 14 at the time and I have not been the same and never will be. My mom and dad became different persons. Unimageanable pain. Everyone on the island was completely destroyed mentally and still to this day are affected. This monster needs to rot in jail until his death and not be allowed his freedom to commit these crimes again. I am begging everyone to please sign and get this message to the justice system. Rest Softly sweet Amy. I, we will never stop fighting.
