Baltimore County Police confirmed Friday the Department still believes this double homicide was an isolated incident.
Earlier this week, Chief McCullough also spoke to where the investigation stands when asked during a public safety public forum.
“The investigation is ongoing,” said McCullough. “I’m very confident our detectives will clear the case, and that’s pretty much everything that we have on that right now. Once again, it’s an ongoing investigation. It was very tragic. It was horrific what happened. It’s sad that two young lives were lost the way they were lost, but it’s our mission to seek justice in this case.”
Gigi attended Western High School in Baltimore City.
The School recently posted a message on behalf of the family which read in part,
“Steve and Gigi were deeply loved by so many, and their love, laughter, and beautiful spirits will forever remain in our hearts. Please continue to keep our family in your thoughts and prayers.”
Family and friends attending funeral services on July 21 are asked to wear black and yellow in honor of Gigi and Steve’s favorite colors.
According to the funeral home website, family and friends are invited from 10:30 am to 11:45 am.
Eulogies are scheduled to begin at 11:45 am with a funeral mass following at noon.
All services are listed to be held at St. Casimir Church located at 2800 O’Donnell Street, Baltimore, MD 21224.
