For the first time since 18-year-old Hanna Cox was shot and killed in Miami County, her parents are speaking out. “I feel like it was an accident. I feel it was a little negligent,' her mom said.
MIAMI COUNTY — Hanna Cox’s parents describe their daughter as a “free spirit” who loved animals, the beach, and to be outside in nature.
Smith said he removed the magazine and thought the gun was unloaded, according to the affidavit. But when he pointed the gun at Hanna, said"it didn't work" and pulled the trigger, he fatally shot her. “They wouldn't tell me right away what happened or how she was, and I said, ‘Just tell me,’” Mindi said. “I just fell to the ground, and I couldn't say anything. It's like part of me left at that moment. Just physically I couldn't walk."“I knew when they said the ambulance didn't leave,” Robert said. “They said the ambulance was still there so I knew. Ambulances don't stay at the scene."“When the tables are turned, it’s just really hard,” Robert said.
Both Mindi and Robert plan to work with state lawmakers and schools to increase education for young people about the proper handling of firearms. Hanna’s cause of death was ruled a homicide, with the manner of death determined to be a gunshot wound to the chest. Hanna always wanted to take a motorcycle ride on Route 66, and her gravesite with Route 66 memorabilia.“We still plan to do the trip on Route 66 from Chicago to Santa Monica and come back,” Robert said. “We're definitely going to still do that in her honor."
