Not Forgotten
Every death is a tragedy. But when someone is murdered, it is an act of violence against the victim, their family, their friends and every one of us," says Yurman. "Homicide victims are not just statistics. They are our neighbors and our family.
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle photographer Will Yurman wanted to make sure their deaths were Not Forgotten. So he took on an ambitious multimedia project in 2007, documenting the stories of more than 50 homicide victims in the Rochester area, and trying to capture portraits of life, in death.
Hear him talk more about how this project came about.
