Aliyah K. Gaitan-Wells
Please help support us in getting her a headstone & a memorial she deserves. ❤️ Thank you.
This is my 10 year old daughter… Aliyah Gaitan-Wells. Enrolled Nisqually, descendant of the Quinault tribe.
She loved canoe journeys. Won consecutively for Queets royalty. Represented both of her tribes in a good way. Loved her culture. Was on honor roll, AAU basketball and always always helped everybody around her! She cared deeply for her people.
Also before I continue Thank you all For being present and fighting for justice for my daughter and those who have stood with us, we love you from the bottom of our hearts all the way to the top!
She was murdered right outside of Queets WA by Charlene Bradshaw of Lake Stevens, July 19th 2021 while driving under the influence of 3 different narcotics. State patrol tried to proclaim that this non native “suffered” a medical condition, they tried to rule this as an “accident”, but being her mother, her advocate.. I fought for her voice to be heard!
We FINALLY got her case closed! Charlene Bradshaw got sentenced Feb 23rd 2024! And we can now continue on to our healing journey… which intels a headstone & memorial . We stand with MMIP! My daughter’s life mattered, our lives matter. Thank you all for supporting our family during a time we need the most it was greatly honorable!
Say her name “Aliyah Gaitan-Wells”. ❤️
