Mi Kyung Kim was 27 when she left work on the evening of December 7, 1993 and boarded a Long Island Rail Road train at Penn Station bound for Long Island. A man later identified as Colin Ferguson brought a handgun, multiple loaded magazines and a large supply of ammunition onto the train. As the train neared Merillon Avenue Station in Garden City Park, Ferguson began shooting down the aisle. In the chaos Kim was struck in the head; a single bullet pierced her left temple and exited near the base of her skull. She was flown from the scene to Nassau County Medical Center, placed on life support and died the next day on December 8 at 3:45 p.m.

Passengers who survived the attack tackled and pinned Ferguson while an off-duty LIRR police officer handcuffed him at the scene. He was taken into custody and arraigned the next day. Court proceedings described notes found on him that referenced reasons for the attack and a prior arrest from 1992. Does anyone have memories of Mi Kyung Kim, or information about her life before that night?
