PHOENIX — Since the summer of 2021, the family of 23-year-old Destiny McClain has been waiting for answers in her shooting death. Four years later, they continue to speak out and fight for justice while sharing their experience with Silent Witness. The non-profit organization hosted a fundraiser on Thursday in Phoenix, hoping to push forward its mission of community safety and solving crimes. "Destiny didn’t deserve this," said McClain's mom, Brenda Gilliam-Miller.
