As of Saturday, there are still no answers about Dailey’s slaying.
"You shouldn't have to bury your child, And how Nikki was brutally murdered with her baby in her arms. It really hurt. It shouldn't be,” Ligons said.
The crowd marched down Charles Street to Brighton Road making stops along the way to hear speakers. Candles were lit and balloons released as a healing service at the memorial where Dailey was killed ended the day.
"There should be cameras because somebody should be responsible for the loss they caused the whole community. It's a great loss,” Shirley Rucker, Dailey's friend, said.
A reward is being offered for any information that would help authorities find Dailey's killer.
