I wanted to give everyone an update on Johnia's case.

I've spoken to the TBI and they are more than willing to step in and offer their assistance in the investigation - all they need is to be asked by the DA's office. Mike and I met with Attorney General Randy Nichols on June 1st and spoke to him about this very issue. He got back to us 28 days later and told us that he would not ask the TBI for their help.

Now, 19 months after Johnia's death, we are still no closer to solving her murder. So, in an attempt to keep my daughter's case alive, I am planning a walk in Knoxville on Friday, July 14 to publicly ask Mr. Nichols to bring the TBI in to help with the case.

If you have time to offer your support, please join me from 5pm - 6:30pm in front of the Knoxville City County Building at 460 West Hill Avenue. I would greatly appreciate your help. (If you need directions, you'll find them here.)

Thank you,
Joan Berry
