In October 2021, Meghan Kiefer was brutally stabbed 54 times by her ex-boyfriend outside her Long Island home. In May 2023, he was sentenced to 25 years to life in prison after pleading guilty to second-degree murder, following his attempted flight to North Carolina after the crime.

Special thanks to Meghan’s Mom, Bevin, for sharing her story and the important work she is doing to raise awareness about domestic violence. You can join the facebook group Meggie’s Voice to learn more.

You can also make a donation to Meghan's Memorial fund here.
