00:00Speed, me, C.D., Trent, this photo was taken at the party, it was fun, it was good.
00:07I'm smiling because I love all these guys and we've had so many good times.
00:14I wish that night had ended differently.
00:19Midnight.
00:22The party began to die down.
00:24People started to leave.
00:26Then me and the guys who were there went out onto the balcony.
00:29And then Holly, who was a bit of a ditz, arrived late for the party.
00:35Actually, I was working that night, but I thought, I'll just stop by for a bit.
00:42And there weren't many people there, because it was already late.
00:45But Trent was so excited, he said, you did it, you came.
00:48Carrie and I had gone to bed; my room was near the balcony, so we could still hear the people outside.
00:55But it was just a murmur, because most people had already left.
01:01I don't know why we stayed on the balcony. I really don't know.
01:06I wonder about that all the time.
01:08I had just arrived home from work, and I went to the bathroom.
01:11And as soon as I opened the door, we heard that noise.
01:22Trent was sitting next to me, chatting.
01:24Then I heard what I think was the loudest sound I've ever heard in my life.
01:28I looked at him and said, "Hey, aunt, did you hear that?"
01:31Carrie suddenly stood up and said, "I think I heard a gunshot."
01:44Then a commotion started on the balcony, right there in front.
01:49I heard Sean yelling, "Help, it's Trent!"
01:52Then I jumped out of bed and left the room, crossed the hallway, and went out the front door.
01:57And I saw Sean with his sweatshirt pressed against Trent's face, trying to help in some way.
02:04Trent was bleeding from his eyes and mouth.
02:07I was trying...
02:09I wanted to do something, I don't know.
02:12Everything was very confusing.
02:15Everything became very confusing, it seemed like an eternity, but it all went by very quickly.
02:20We were terrified, we didn't know what to do.
02:22Then I became desperate, I started trying to find out who had done it, if anyone was in danger.
02:27If the shooter was still there...
02:30We didn't know if the shooter could come in and go after all of us.
02:34It turned into absolute chaos.
02:36It could have been anyone.
02:37We thought that perhaps someone at the party could have killed him.
02:42You start to distrust everyone around you, your friends, your acquaintances.
02:46You don't know who to trust.
02:51Trent de Giro's 21st birthday party
02:54That night, Trent and I talked all night long.
03:01And that summer, The Lion King was a huge hit.
03:09And there was a moment when Trent put on the Lion King soundtrack at the party and it was crazy.
03:14And then Elton John's song, "Can You Feel The Love The Night," started playing.
03:23Trent and I danced to this song alone in the living room.
03:26But it was just a clumsy rocking motion, back and forth.
03:32And I remember his big arms wrapping around me.
03:35And then we told each other that we loved each other.
03:38And then I told him...
03:39Ah, okay, I think I'll leave.
03:45And I left between half past midnight and one o'clock.
03:53I had no idea how that night would change everything.
03:58Trent is shot.
03:59It was crazy, it was very random.
04:07And I called emergency services.
04:11It was very frightening and we were in shock.
04:15The paramedics arrived very quickly.
04:18Ten minutes.
04:19After the call to emergency services.
04:20Perhaps less.
04:25And there
04:29Bye, bye.
04:55Bye, bye.
