Victim family forms Hope Foundation in Md for crime survivors
Adrian Pilkington and his wife launch the Hope Foundation Associates Inc to aid crime victims, offering two hour monthly meetings and professional guidance. The foundation grows from the murder case of their son Ian, where four youths were charged for stabbing him and throwing his body from Md. 17 bridge into the Potomac. Already three defendants are convicted, with one awaiting trial, as victims’ families share experiences and plan support services.
