Her murderer John Christopher Smith CDC# E94734 is coming up for parole.
He murdered her because he was abusive and controlling and she wanted to leave. He shot her in the head waited for her to die, as she did not die instantly, then he put her in a tarp and weighted her down with a car transmission and threw her off the San Mateo Bridge. He then threw away all of her belongings and returned to work as if nothing happened. His story was they got into a fight she moved out and he had no idea where she was. Well she eventuality can free from the transmission and floated to the top and was found by a fisherman. She had to be identified with dental records.
Now John was a well educated man from a good stable home. He had all the resources in the world he could need to make better choices. Instead he chose to murder her and try to wipe her off the face of the earth.
He was sentenced to life and I feel he should have to serve that sentence. Please sign this petition and help make that happen.

I went to school with and was friends with Debbie. She was a wonderful person. I am horrified that someone who ended her life so horribly would be considered for parole. Please keep him in prison where he belongs.
Please do not grant this man parole. This family has been so deeply devistated by this mans actions. Their sentence is a life sentence. Someone who can vomit such a calculated crime cannot be let out to repeat.
Having had a family member murdered the pain never goes away and him being release and being able to live his life is torture to the family.
I’m married to her daughter & seeing Laura go through life without her mother.. to see her grand children & be with us. We can’t have that kind of life do to ones actions.
I was not able to ever meet my younger half sister Deborah. By the time I was, I found she had been murdered. While I do believe people can change from bad to good with God, I also believe since John was sentenced to life for this BRUTAL act, he should serve it out. He took a life. He was given a life sentence.
Heard it on the "murder in my family" podcast on spotify.
He should serve more time than 17 years!!! A life for a life!

I remember living in the East Bay then and my ex husband worked at UAL Oakland. He came home and told me about this and we were both in shock! Please don’t let this monster out.
