Before Trenton uh Fry's trial even began, um Caitlyn's mother, Crystal, her two aunts, Sherry and Tina, they took to
00:00:08
social media. They started posting videos on TikTok to talk about the case. And it's definitely something that we've
00:00:13
been seeing, whether it's the families of victims wanting more attention on a case um that hasn't been solved or
00:00:20
wanting more attention on a suspect who has been charged. I just did a a case involving Molly Bish
00:00:28
and her sister used Tik Tok to try to get new tips and new evidence. So, yes, it's happening all the time. In this
00:00:36
case, though, as reporters, you really get a sense of what this family went through in a way you couldn't any other
00:00:44
way. Caitlyn's mother, Crystal, happens to have two sisters and these women all are very supportive of each other. And
00:00:53
so when Crystal was having difficulty grappling with her pain and her loss, her sisters come through and the way
00:01:00
they support her is on TikTok and telling people what's happening and how we have to have justice for uh Caitlyn.
00:01:08
You know, they really were pushing for that. A lot of these videos really brought Caitlyn to life. Like she pops
00:01:16
off the screen. >> Oh, she does. Um, I often feel this, but I felt this in particular in this case
00:01:24
that I wish I'd known Caitlyn Montgomery.
