I am Amanda’s Aunt. I married into this family when Amanda was about 13 years old. I have always thought of her as one of the most genuinely caring and sensitive young people I know. The things that have been written about her in the tabloids are polar opposite of who she really is. She is someone who can be counted on if you need her, she is honest, giving of herself and truly a good person. Those who know her, even if just in passing, know that she could never hurt anyone. Soon, when the trial starts and all evidence (or lack of it) is presented publicly, perhaps then she will be vindicated. Until then, the family is asking everyone to support Amanda while she deals with this very scary time in her life.
Thank you. Janet Huff

I’ve known Amanda for a long time now. I consider her one of my best friends. If I had to sum her up in one word, it would be compassion. She is a natural caregiver, the sort of person that people go to when they need help… be it advice, a place to sleep, a lovingly cooked meal, or just a hug and a set of ears. She regularly gives more care and attention to others than she does to herself. She buys sandwiches for homeless people and nurses sick friends. Hers is always the voice of patience, love, and generosity. Frankly, the number of people that I respect on the same level that I respect Amanda can be counted on one hand.

Amanda is an absolutely amazing person. She is peace, love, and happiness out
there in the world.
Her actions and words always come from that place.
She always puts others before herself. It is hard not to experience love when you are with Amanda. You can’t help but smile
when she smiles, and her hugs
leave you knowing exactly how
much she loves you. She is
smart, talented, beautiful, and humble. She is inspirational.
