DID YOU KNOW: October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Domestic violence affects millions of men and women each year.
Since the Violence Against Women Act passed in 1994, we’ve come a long way. This momentous legislation, led by [then Senator] Joe Biden, combined new provisions holding offenders accountable and providing programs and services for victims.
Between 1993 and 2010, the overall rate of domestic violence dropped nearly two-thirds and state laws have reformed to address various DV issues.

Meet Your Contestants!
Last but certainly not least, your Host, Mark House:
Mark is an attorney at Becker & House, were he practices trusts and estates. Mark is also on the board of directors of the Girl Scouts, Arizona Cactus Pine Council, giving him an opportunity to be an advocate for girls and women. He is quite passionate about that advocacy at all levels. Mark’s daughter Darby was Audra’s best friend, and Carol was Allison House’s co-leader of the Girl Scout troop, so this event is very personal to him. In addition to his other qualities, he is an avid Katy Perry fan, and will be performing “Roar” for everyone’s entertainment.

The Story of Carol and Audra Sanders

On November 12, 2013, Audra Sanders and her mother Carol were murdered by Audra’s father, Michael. You may remember this event; it was a local tragedy that made the national news. But the reporters did not convey Carol and Audra’s amazing strength, and their love for Girl Scouting, nor the lasting impact they made on my life.

Audra was a Girl Scout, and Audra’s mother Carol was the leader. For five years, Audra participated in all the Girl Scout traditions of selling cookies and going to camp, of course, but also donated time and resources to charities such as the Ronald McDonald House, St. Mary’s Food Bank, and St. Vincent de Paul. Carol was an amazing leader. She taught presentation skills and encouraged girls to use those skills to benefit the community. Once, the girls created a presentation that featured a fashion show of antique Girl Scout uniforms, music, and history, and performed it for a group of ladies in Sun City. The girls also learned real life entrepreneurial and marketing skills and put them into action during the annual cookie sales. In short, those five years in Girl Scouts gave all of the girls the courage to become the strong and accomplished women.

Carol’s wonderful work with our troop could not change the situation she faced at home. Carol had married the wrong man, and she was terrified of him. Michael was mean, and cruel to her and to their daughter. He threatened her family if she should ever try to leave him. He made good on the threat and killed Carol, my friend Audra, and Carol’s brother Tom Fitzpatrick that horrible day in November.

After the murders, we were all devastated.
