Tori?s Father, Rodney Stafford, says regardless of the holiday, he spends April 8thwith his only daughter "April eighth we're probably just going to comm....well...not even commemorate it...it's Easter. Easter Sunday. Spend it with our kids and like I said we'll probably go out to the cemetery, dig a couple of little holes, bury some eggs like we do every year and share Easter with Victoria". Tori disappeared April 8, 2009 and was not found until July 19ththat same year. One of her accused, 21 year old Terri-Lynne McClintic, pleaded guilty April 30, 2010 to first degree murder in her death.
