Sage Crawford, 33, was fatally shot by a Nevada County sheriff s deputy during a confrontation last week in Alta Sierra. A vigil was held Wednesday in Crawford’s honor.
“She was a mother. She was a daughter. She was a sister.”
And whatever transpired between Sage Crawford and law enforcement, she “did not deserve to be gunned down in front of her children,” said family spokeswoman Leia Schenk.
Schenk spoke to a crowd of about 50 gathered Wednesday afternoon at the site of Crawford’s fatal shooting in Alta Sierra, during a vigil organized to honor her memory.
