The news of another mass shooting about 40 miles north at a King Soopers store in Boulder has brought Castillo full circle, he said. He knows what the families of the 10 people shot and killed while working and grocery shopping will face in the months and years ahead. “It’s important the victims’ families prepare themselves for the long haul,” Castillo said in a phone interview while standing in the cemetery where Kendrick is buried. “The devastation and loss is only the beginning when the perpetrator survives something like this.” The families of the 10 people shot and killed March 22, as well as others working and shopping in the King Soopers during the gunfire, face a long, arduous court process ahead, experts on victim advocacy and mass trauma said. The criminal legal system can help provide a sense of closure and answer victims’ questions, they said, but it can also force the survivors to repeatedly re-live their trauma.
