In the background is Rick Smith, the father of Jessica Smith who also gave an emotional statement in court. Hicks Jr. was sentenced to 26 years to life in prison for the murder. The statements the family gave, including ones by Jessica's brother and a cousin, provided a glimpse into grief an extended family experiences long after a domestic violence crime is committed. The sentencing took place in the courtroom of Judge Michael Garcia in Sacramento Superior Court, Friday, September 10, 2004.
