Just one day after an arrest, supporters of a murdered young mother are ready for justice and peace.

Thursday night, friends and family of murder victim Sonya Ratliff find support in each other. The group gathered at Watson Elementary and then walked the streets of Little Rock with their candles lit.

They ended their march at Ratliff's mother's house to sing and pray.

The 32-year-old died last Wednesday, after John Jackson, Jr. allegedly fatally shot her at her home. Two of her children saw it happen.
