UPDATE (02): We just found out today that one of her teeth adjacent to the one that was knocked out is loosely connected and is going to have to be replaced as well. I want to say another thank you from all of us for all of your generosity and support, you guys have helped out so tremendously and that's more than we could ever ask for!

UPDATE: Jessy went to the dentist today and her new tooth was quoted $4000. We are asking for $3000 to help us replace her tooth! Thank you so much for helping so far everyone you guys are so kind and generous and we couldn't be more grateful!!!


Hi, my name is Keith. My girlfriend Sasha and I are creating this gofundme for her sister Jessica. We were in the crowd of people running from the shooting at The Gorge Amphitheatre on June 17th.

We went through one of the most traumatizing experiences in our lives at Beyond Wonderland this last weekend. We arrived around 4 on Friday so we were camped in the section H overflow lot, which ended up being a great spot Friday and Saturday before the concert. On Saturday around 8:00, my girlfriend, her sister and I went back to our campsite to change into warmer clothes since it was getting windy and cold. We got back to our campsite around 8:20 and her sister Jessica went to the portapotties while Sasha and I went back to our campsite. As we started walking towards the portapotties to get Jessy, she ran out and called Sasha saying that a girl told her someone is shooting and then they heard gun shots. There was a group of people running out of section H, so we all started running out of towards the pivot all the way across ga and then the live nation employees guided us down into premier. The crowd was scared and people were frightened. As we ran into premier, Jessica ended up tripping and falling down hitting her head so hard against the ground her tooth went through her mouth and lip! She had a seizure in the middle of everything and turned blue, and Sasha almost had to give her cpr. The medics came quickly because we were near the med tent, thankfully! They picked her up on a stretcher while she was unconscious and took her to the med tent. Everyone was in panic and it was one of the most scariest experiences of our lives. We thought she was going to die and it was the most traumatic thing we have ever experienced. When we first got brought into the medical tent there was a man in the back who was screaming. It turns out he was one of the shooting victims and fortunately we found out this morning that he survived! The medics were tending to Jessy and after only a few minutes, they wheeled in a girl on a stretcher who had also been shot, and she was screaming so loud for almost the whole time she was in there. The medics kept coming back to check on Jessy when they could, since they were more focused on the shooting victims. They wheeled out both the girl and the first guy, and then after a few minutes the sheriffs were radioing about a headshot, and after only a couple more minutes, they wheel in a stretcher with a guy on it who had been shot multiple times in the head. They rolled him past us, less than 5 feet away, and then a group of doctors, cops, and nurses stood around him for close to 15 minutes before they covered him up and rolled him out. It was so horrible to be as close to this as we were and have to experience what we did. We were in there for nearly 3 hours and the doctor was able to see Jessy finally and thankfully we got some help and could stay at our friends campsite. They were amazing for taking us in, thank you to Dwayne, Sophia, Jessen, Carlos, Riley, Jalon, Mikey and Justine they were the best vibes and helped us decompress from the crazy night we had. We came in with good vibes and feel so so so terrible for the victims and their families. We are fortunate to be alive and it’s a very scary experience that we will never forget.

Jessy is going to need a new tooth and her jaw needs to be examined. We are hoping to get some help with these expenses since we are already barely scraping by. Thank you for whatever you can help with and even if you can’t donate, we appreciate your support too!
