Gonzalez family thanks supporters ahead of sentencing this week [Video]

WAUPACA COUNTY, Wis. (WBAY) – The family of the four siblings killed in a drunk driving incident last December thanked the community for their help on their recent social media campaign.

A new video was posted to Facebook last Friday, asking people to continue writing letters to a Waupaca County Judge to push for the convicted driver, Scott Farmer, to be given the maximum prison sentence.

The family is also asking the public to showcase their support in person through a public hearing at the Waupaca County Courthouse this upcoming Friday.

“You might not be able to fit in the courthouse, but your presence there will be felt as we gather lots of people to show how important our kids are and how important our lives are,” the video states.

Farmer is set to be sentenced this Friday. Any further letters will not be accepted after midnight Monday night.
