Santo Domingo.— Every 8th of the month, since the fateful April 8th, families, friends, and relatives of the victims of the Jet Set visit the so-called ground zero to keep alive the memory of those who lost their lives on that tragic night. Photos, candles, and offerings continue to be present at the site, while visitors remember and honor those who died on what was expected to be a day of joy. The Golden Haineros were present today to honor the memory of the deceased and the 11 members of their group. They came to reaffirm their commitment to continue fighting for justice.

"We are always going to come in representation and be here firm every 8th day until justice gives a favorable verdict," expressed one of the members.

Another member called on the press to continue providing support and not to "take money to sell their principles," highlighting that this struggle is for everyone.
