The stories of the kids who died in the squat, from those who knew them

He found a family, and finally started to make a home in a place where others rarely tarried.
Jonathan Guerrero
"God just put too many things on this kid."
Katie Simianer
"I want to go. I want to travel. I have to hurry. I have to live my life while I can."
Tony Zaleta
A spirit walking, trying to find his place in the world.
Nikki Pack

Fast talking, easy to get laughing, a young woman who always wanted to be free.
Melissa Martinez
"She was fearless. She would try anything."
Justin Lutz
"There was something about Justin. He would just draw you in."
Jeff Geerts
