Jessica Nicole Ghawi, 24, was killed on July 20, 2012, during the mass shooting at a midnight screening of The Dark Knight Rises at the Century 16 theater in Aurora, Colorado. An aspiring sports journalist who also wrote under the pen name Jessica Redfield, she had recently moved to the Denver area from San Antonio to pursue her career.

Ghawi was attending the movie with a friend, Brent Lowak, who was visiting from Texas. According to accounts, the attacker set off tear gas grenades and opened fire with multiple firearms. Lowak said Ghawi was first shot in the leg; as he tried to apply pressure she was struck again in the head and did not survive.

The shooter, identified as 24-year-old James Eagan Holmes, was arrested minutes later outside the theater and authorities found weapons and explosives tied to the attack. The case resulted in multiple counts against Holmes. Does anyone who knew Jessica or was at the screening have details to share about her life or that night?
