“I don't know how to handle it, as everyone here says,” she said, saying her agent, her husband, continued to seek interviews. “We just wanted to be here and be a member of the community, so I didn't feel right at home and interviewing me.”

Boston's skate club has identified two athletes killed when Jinna Han and Spencer Lane dropped CRASH. Their mother and two coaches were also identified as victims.

“I have never seen these two people like skating. So I think it hurts very much, but my parents are working hard to be here, but I I feel that it is such a tragic event not only for athletes, their skaters, their families, but also for those who were on the plane.
