DELAND, Fla. — Hobbs' family said they will protest outside of the Volusia County Courthouse on Friday.
"I have to keep explaining to my son that she's in heaven, and he wants to talk to her, and he can't and I can't, and it's just a hard situation," said Courtney Hobbs, sister of Julianne.
Hobbs said she thinks of many special moments she'll no longer have with her younger sister. Her 15th birthday on Sunday is one of those moments, she said.
She said that the ongoing investigation into the hit-and-run death of her sister makes it even more painful.
"It's been six months. The paperwork isn't even completed, and the longer this takes, the longer she's going to be out here," said Hobbs.
The "she" Hobbs referred to is Danielle Halverson, 50, of DeLand. Investigators have named her as a person of interest in the hit-and-run.
Halverson called police to tell them that her car was involved, but she claimed she was not the one driving it.
