An annual 5K walk in Michigan is honoring a woman who was killed by her husband 10 years ago.
The 10th Tara Walk in memory of murder victim Tara Grant will be held Saturday in Sterling Heights. Organizers say the event raises awareness of violence in the home as it also kicks off Domestic Violence Awareness Month in October.
Grant was killed in 2007 by her husband Stephen Grant, who was found guilty of second-degree murder. The case gained nationwide attention due to the grisliness of the murder and the husband's public denials.
Stephen Grant is serving 50 to 80 years at the Bellamy Creek Correction Facility in Ionia.
Proceeds from the walk will go toward the Tara Grant Liberation Fund, which helps domestic violence survivors leave abusive situations.
