Victim Impact Statement Of Annie Nesbitt I am a 16-year-old girl, daughter of murdered drugstore owner, Alguinaldo Nesbitt. I could of never of imagined that something like this would have happened! Hearing the news that my own father was shot and killed in his own store, by his own gun was shocking to me. What was weird is that this information never really soaked in completely until later, I guess it was just too big of a surprise. It was supposed to be a fun night, I had always been very busy with all my homework and volunteer work, and my father had always been very busy in the store, so one day we decide we both needed a break. He was going to close up early and I would skip a day of school, we were going to go spend a night in Edmonton. …show more content…
If I remember correctly I was in the middle of a math test, or science test, I’m not sure since we had a lot going on that day. Anyways just as I was getting started I got called down to the office, it was weird since I had never been called down to the office, when I got down their I had seen 2 police officers who asked me to come with them, I believe their names were William and Karyl. When they asked me to come with them I was very confused and a bit frighten, I had asked them where we were going but they didn’t answer me.

Here and there I have babysat, but it’s just too hard, every little thing reminds me of him! Ever since I moved in with my mother has been very hard, at one point we almost lost the apartment because the manager was sick of us not paying rent on time, but luckily he gave us another
