A Memorial set up at site where Brianna Zunino Denison's body was found.
Yards from where Brianna Denison's body was found Friday in South Reno, dozens of mourners studied a poster of the smiling 19-year-old that said, "We Love You Brianna!" The spot was surrounded by blue balloons, flowers, notes, candles and stuffed animals.
Hundreds of people who never met "Bri" drove Sunday to the intersection of Double R Boulevard and Sandhill Road to pay their respects to Denison, who police said was kidnapped Jan. 20 by a serial sexual predator and strangled.
Rest in peace dear child. You, your family and your friends are in our prayers.
