Roswell, GA.
It was one day after their teen card was lifted as a result of a random attack that sent fear through the suburbs north of Atlanta in the summer of 2016.
The hawk remained when the father spoke. When he finished, he began to fly silently over the crowd, flying a little over his classmates’ head in The Sfreful Vigil, Michel Davis reminded in an interview this week.
Hawks and butterflies will appear later for the Davis family weird and unexpected. They were part of a number of events that helped her to bring her joy, she said.
Michel Davis – an English teacher at Lavta School in Atlanta, and one of the last signs that her son was in order, passed through a former Sleter Nali student. He wrote a song about Carter and later entered the TV show “American Idol”. ABC representatives said the “traces of you” will be aired by the season, representatives of ABC said.
Michel Davis spent one of the last days with his son in his native state South Dakota, under the elevated granite peaks on black hills. She and Carter noticed how the two granite spitz touched each other on the ravine, a rock -known formation as the hands that were praying.
Three days later, Carter and his girlfriend Natalie Henderson, both, were killed. It was a night before it was supposed to start his senior year at River River High School in Woodstock, Georgia.
Hours after the murder of his father, Carter gathered with his daughter, 8-year-old Greta to find a way forward. They only heard the devastating details of the police detectives. When the police left, they went to the porch and decided to look for messages that were signaled with the card, Michel Davis said. To better understand the loss of his older brother, Jeremy Davis explained to his daughter that Carter could send reports that he is perfectly unique, such as feathers or dragonflies.
They talked about it a little before Jeremy Davis said to the family, “I see it as a hawk or eagle, taking off high.”
The next evening the hawk appeared in The Vigil.
When Michel Davis talked to his parents a couple of days after the killings, a yellow and black butterfly landed near them. It reminded them of the love of Carter to the butterflies.
Carter was also fond of sports and hoped to play Lakros in college. Weeks after the killings, friends and family organized a game in Lakros in Georgia.
The best friend of the Carter from South Dakota flew to Atlanta on the game and wore a Carter and Jersey helmet. The middle, the players stopped. They started pointing to the Carter helmet where the yellow butterfly landed.
A few days after the murder, Roswell police arrested Jeffrey Haislwood on two murder cases. Police said he pursued Carter and Henderson when they spent time in a parked machine near Publix grocery store.
Heizlwood, who was 20 years old at the time, remained on the roof of the grocery store in the previous hours on August 1, 2016 to watch them, the prosecutor’s office said. Later, he collided with the teenagers in the parking lot, shooting at them, determined the medical observer. There was no evidence that he even knew them.
After the killings, Haislwood wore the Guy Fox mask – which gained popularity after the 2006 movie “V for Vendetta” – when he filled the car with gas in a nearby shop, video surveillance. Police said he wore a mask during the murder because there was no CCTV that captured teenagers, police said. Later, detectives were found by Hazelwood’s works that expressed his desire to become a murderer.
Haislwood pleaded guilty, but mentally ill up to two murder points and is serving a life imprisonment in Georgia’s prison, the State Department of Penalty reports. Hazelwood was diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, his lawyers said in court.
The priest, who prayed with her and the Henderson family and the Roswel police detective who interviewed Michel and Jeremy Davis, also gave them comfort on the darkest days, said Michel Davis.
She is also grateful that the detectives secured the confession in Hazelwood. He swayed uncontrollably when he retells the crime of the detective, as seen in the video for questioning. The Medical Laboratory of the Police Department now has a board on the wall: “In memory of Natalie Henderson and Carter Davis. If the innocent cannot shout about justice, it is our duty to do it for them.”
Last year, Michel Davis shared a poem she wrote from Nalli, her ex -student. Then Nali created a song about Carter and wanted to bring his guitar to school and play the class.
“It was the most charming thing I heard,” said Michel Davis. Students in other classes heard music. So “we went to this class that sang this song, and I sat there, listening to it and crying,” she said.
The opening of the song is “your laughter was like a river run home.” Later, the song calls Hox that brings her comfort: “Somewhere past the sky I feel like you dance in the air. Every time I see the bird flies past, I am reminded that you answer my prayers.”
Through a friend, Michel Davis was able to find a small group of women in the Atlanta area known as Mom -Voyns, all of whom suffered huge losses.
“Like Americans, we shy away from talking about it,” she said. “It’s just under the surface – this sadness – that any second I can just sit for a long time and break.”
Mom -Voyns plan to share their experience in the book “Chapka as a Mother, survives as a warrior”, which will be released at the end of this year.
“We wanted to be able to tell our stories that help people find joy again,” Michel Davis said. “Very intentionally finding joy.”
Another thing she learned is what she calls “alive in” and “as” dark and easy, sadness and happiness, grief and joy, “she said.
She also plans to continue looking for these unexpected moments when the memory of her son floods back.
“You are looking for hawks and butterflies,” she said.
