Sandra wants to take a moment and silence all the rumors by saying that there was no outside source involved in the murders, specifically mentioning the ridiculous notion that Kevin Sullivan was responsible and staged the entire ordeal.

She talks about what a difficult road it's been trying to come back from this and that there isn't a day that goes by where she doesn't think about Chris's other children.

She recently reconnected with David for the first time since not long after the incident, and that was a big deal for her. She says there were tears on the phone and the question he asked that ripped her apart was "Why did you wait eight years?"

Toffoloni claimed she had tried to reach out several times but it had been thwarted by other family members, and she began to think that it may be too hard for him. She's happy they're back in touch and he'll always be her nephew.
