Until reality sets back in.<\/p>\n
“Honestly, there is no justice for an incident like this. Because we’ll still be living with whatever happened and the memory of that for the rest of our lives,” said Aditya.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In December, their lives changed forever. Their son, 7-year-old Pronoy, was hit and killed as he was leaving Albuquerque’s River of Lights.<\/p>\n
“This incident has left a very big hollow in our lives which unfortunately will never be filled,” Aditya said.<\/p>\n
U.S. Marshals and APD announced the arrest of the suspect in the case, Sergio Almanza, Monday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“I wish we could just go back and reverse this whole thing. Unfortunately, that’s not gonna happen and this doesn’t enable that to happen,” said Aditya.<\/p>\n
The family knows they’re still facing an uphill battle in the judicial process. Their fear is that the suspect will get a minimal sentence.<\/p>\n
“It’s about the message that you send to the community. And if someone does something like this and gets away with a minimal sentence, that I think sends a very wrong message,” said Aditya.<\/p>\n
But they won’t be in Albuquerque to see the process play out. The family decided to move back to the East Coast.<\/p>\n
“It has become very difficult for us to live in Albuquerque, consider ourselves safe, I mean we have almost stopped going out honestly. And also this house, which is filled with his memories.”<\/p>\n
A place that has become – just too painful.<\/p>\n
“All his memories, good memories as well, are somehow tinged by what happened that night. And it’s just, it’s still hard for us to think of anything positive.”<\/p>\n
The family told KOB 4 they’ll move back to New York in a few months, despite all of the positive things Albuquerque has to offer.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
