After a homicide, what do others leave behind to memorialize the victim?
This site displays photos of makeshift memorials that spontaneously arise after individuals are killed by violence in Oakland.Each site of a killing is photographed whether or not a memorial is found there....
Nothing there... Went to the site of the first homicide, but found nothing but a wad of Police tape.

BABY, I'M STILL HURTING BY THE DAY YOU WALKED OUT THE DOOR AND HAVEN'T RETURNED. YOU TOLD ME "BABY I WILL BE BACK ABOUT 11" AND YOU NEVER MAY IT BACK. MY HEART NEVER FELT PAIN THE WAY IT DID THE DAY YOU WERE MURDER.
Verdair my younger brother. Its your boy Jonson.Cant believe that its over,but if god called u I ain't even mad at him he must of needed a soldier. I miss u bro. When I see you again Let me roll a perfect Blunt and Spark it for ya.
A 24-year-old man found shot on Jan. 3rd on an East Oakland street became Oakland’s first homicide victim of 2007. He was identified as Verdair Laroy Mosley, also known as Curtis Twiggs. A tow truck driver spotted Mosley lying on the pavement in the 900 block of 89th Avenue at about 11:30 p.m. Paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene at 11:35 p.m. Homicide Sgt. Rick Andreotti said police believe Mosley was killed elsewhere and left on 89th Avenue.
This has been the deepest and most hurtful pain in my life. I lost my other half, and it seems like yesterday. The phone call still comes to me when I got the word you were gone. My life has not been the same. I miss you, and I would do anything to bring you back. I remember our good days growing up and that you always came to me for comfort. Your memory lives with me forever.
I love you, I love you Your twin Brother Adair
