Christy Giles was a one-time Soccer Star turned model often traveling the world looking for adventure
00:00:07
Christie rode camels in Morocco we rode donkeys around the Grand Canyon her big sister Misty Weldon said
00:00:16
Christy's Lively personality was bursting with exuberance when Christy came into her room she was
00:00:23
like a tornado her personality was big it was loud you just couldn't help but love her for
00:00:34
it it was that personality that made her husband Jan silier fall in love with her
00:00:40
she was the most fun and interesting person I'd ever met she didn't live inside society's box definitely not
00:00:47
several months after the two met Yan planned to ask Christy for her hand in marriage at The Burning Man festival in
00:00:54
Nevada instead the two figured why wait instead we just decided to elope we just
00:01:04
got married right there Christy's mom Dusty and Dad Leslie never expected to hear their daughter's name
00:01:11
in the same sentence as elope and Burning Man needless to say it did not go over Well
00:01:18
Chrissy I can't believe you've done this your dad didn't even get to walk you down the aisle and she goes oh no no no
00:01:24
no we got married but we are full on having a wedding in Alabama the newlyweds came to Alabama and
00:01:34
Christy and her mom found the perfect wedding dress to wear at a later date but she never got the chance to wear
00:01:40
that dress on the night of November 12 2021 she had plans to go out with her friend Hilda
00:01:48
Marcela cabrales but beforehand Jan who had gone to San Francisco to visit his dad said Christy
00:01:55
spent the early evening doing what she loved most she was enjoying a lovely sunset she
00:02:02
took out cat for a walk on the beach those were the last pictures she sent me of herself
00:02:13
and she said I wish you were here and I will forever wish that I was there too Christy who had just turned 24 was dead
00:02:23
of a drug overdose but when detectives heard how she was dropped off by two men they immediately suspected Foul Play
00:02:31
I was just told I'm very sorry to inform you Mr house but she was dropped off at
00:02:39
our Hospital on the outside kind of like a bag of garbage and she didn't make it and I said what
00:02:49
do you mean she didn't make it they said it is now a police matter I hung up and
00:02:56
I fell apart as investigators worked to solve Christie's death Dusty and Leslie Giles were preparing to bury their
00:03:03
daughter in Alabama half her ashes would go to yawn to scatter in the places they loved
00:03:11
Dusty placed the rest in an urn inside a butterfly box and gently wrapped it in the wedding dress she never had the
00:03:18
chance to wear it was important because I know how happy she was when she found it
00:03:25
she swirled like a princess literally in it foreign
