This case stemmed from an incident occurring in Camden, NJ on June 12, 2014. As one of the first to arrive to the scene she worked this case and obtained multiple statements from several displaced individuals in the location whom she maintained contact with over the years and who also testified in the month-long trial this past March in Camden Federal Court House. In addition, Kitty was responsible for obtaining neighborhood video tape, interviewing multiple witnesses, taking 16 statements, and managing the case for the past 8 years.
