Memorial in Santa Cruz Will Remember and Honor Maddy Middleton

Thousands are expected to attend a public memorial for Madyson "Maddy" Middleton on Sunday in Santa Cruz.

The 8-year-old girl was kidnapped and killed in Santa Cruz last month by 15-year-old Adrian Jerry Gonzalez.

Gonzalez has been charged with kidnapping, sexually assaulting and raping Middleton.

The memorial will take place 3 p.m. at the Kaiser Permanente Arena in Santa Cruz. Maddy’s neighbors and other artists plan to perform in honor of her.
