The kind that made people instantly feel comfortable.
She had an infectious personality and a caring spirit that left a lasting impression on everyone she met.
To her family, she wasn’t simply a college student.
She was a beloved daughter.
A sister.
A source of joy.
And on the evening of October 23, 2019, nobody could have imagined how quickly everything would change.
The Stop That Changed Everything
Earlier that night, Aniah had dropped her brother off and began the short drive back to her apartment.
It was a route she had traveled countless times before.
A drive so familiar that it required little thought.
Along the way, she stopped briefly at a local convenience store.
Security cameras later captured what appeared to be an ordinary visit.
She purchased a snack.
Walked through the store.
Headed back outside.
Nothing looked unusual.
Nothing appeared out of place.
