Mother of El Dorado Hills homicide victim speaks
The mother of the woman murdered in El Dorado Hills early Wednesday morning is speaking out. Khrista Ibarolle was just 31 when she was gunned down in the 36 Handles parking lot.
Khrista's family said she was inspired by nature. They called her a caring and compassionate woman.
Her mother, Lori Ibarolle, said on the phone from South Dakota that her daughter always lightened the mood with her vibrant smile.
"Khrista is going to be missed," Ibarolle said. "She had a big smile. She had a hug for everybody."
Ibarolle said if Khrista would have been allowed to live, she would have continued to work every day to make this world a better place.
"There was no stranger (for Khrista)," she said. "She had no prejudices as far as people. Everybody was part of her circle of love."
