An Atlanta woman is taking matters into her own hands and raising money to find the man who murdered her twins.
The mother is raising money to add to a police reward fund that she hopes will lead to someone stepping forward with information about the man suspected of murdering her 24-year-old twin sons.
"It was my family today. We don't want it to be your family tomorrow," the twins' aunt, Washunda Holman, told Fox 5 Atlanta.
The family is hoping to raise $10,000 to add to the $2,000 reward that is already being offered for information leading to the arrest and indictment in their murders, which took place at a South Fulton gas station last summer, according to Fox 5 Atlanta.
"In a way we're still living in a dream," Holman said. "We are on an emotional roller coaster."
South Fulton police have identified Zachary Hardwick, 23, as a suspect in the murders, and he is being sought by US Marshals for double homicide, aggravated assault and armed robbery, according to Fox 5 Atlanta.
"Mom, not losing one, but two of babies brought into this world together, left this world together. It's very heartbreaking," Holman said.
Family members insist the brothers didn't know their alleged killer, describing Erin as the laid-back one and Eriq as an entrepreneur who loved to cook, according to Fox 5 Atlanta. "They were just alike but different in so many different angles," Holman said.
