Homicide Victims Memorial in Columbus restored by family members of victims
The Homicide Victims Memorial has been restored to its original status, according to Director of Victim Services Shelly Hall.
Vandalism of the memorial was reported to the District Attorney’s Victim-Witness on Sept. 19.
Hall says that family members of victims gathered Friday to restore the memorial to its prior status.
“It looks amazing,” Hall said in a email. “We are still planning to move forward with an entirely new structure, but it might take some time.”
The Victim-Witness office is currently in talks to partner with the Dragonfly Trail Network, according to Hall. She is going before the city council next week to seek its approval.
