Justice For Saria

03/26/2026

We are looking for any leads on an Airbnb or short term rental in the Anchorage area for the duration of the upcoming trial.

We need a rental that can sleep five people for the whole month of June, with the flexibility to accommodate an additional 2-3 people occasionally throughout the month.

If you know of any options that meets our needs please let us know.

We received the good news today that the trial for Saria’s murder has finally been scheduled. It will start June 8, 2026.

As ever, we appreciate your support during this time and hope that justice will be served.

Today marks two years since Saria’s passing. I wish we were coming to Facebook with better news, but the trial still has yet to be scheduled. How quickly and also how slowly two years have passed. We miss Saria everyday, but know she is with us in many small ways. Her memory has been carried in the hearts of many around the world and into the depths of our sorrows. Thank you for supporting us and for caring about our beautiful bad ass sunshine girl.

Huge update today. At a hearing today, the trial date was finally set. It will begin on May 5, 2025. We are grateful for some forward momentum, but know it will be a difficult road ahead of us.

We are still waiting. The next hearing date is November 13th. The judicial system is slow. We are increasingly frustrated and it feels like a let down every month when scheduling gets pushed further into the future. But we understand that there is a process that must be adhered to and we want the prosecution to be as prepared as possible when the case finally goes to trial.

Today at a hearing in Saria’s case we learned that the trial scheduling will be pushed again. Hoping for more movement and information at the next hearing on Sept. 11th

Unfortunately at the hearing on the 17th they pushed the scheduling of the trial. There will be a hearing again on 7/31 and we hope to have some better news then.

06/09/2024

We finally have an update and some forward momentum. On July 17th there will be hearing to set a start date for Saria’s trial.

This news is both welcome and anxiety inducing. We are grateful to hopefully be on our way to getting justice for Saria, but we also know that the start of the trial will bring with it many emotions and heartache.

Reliving the experience and learning more details about the case will be difficult for us, her family. We appreciate all of your support moving forward, as well as the kindness and aide that has been given up to this point.

Please keep Saria and her family and friends in your thoughts as we move towards the next steps in finding justice for our dearly missed girl.
