Christy Giles’ mother speaks at sentencing of daughter's killer, David Brian Pearce

A victim of Hollywood predator David Pearce was a hero cop who died helping car crash victims days before her rapist was sentenced to life in prison. Lauren Craven, 25, had been raped by Pearce along with six other women before the Los Angeles producer drugged and killed model Christy Giles and a friend in 2021. Pearce was sentenced to a total of 146 years in prison for his crimes, but Craven was not there to see him get justice: the police officer from La Mesa, CA, was struck and killed by a vehicle last week while rishing to air people trapped in a car that had flipped over on the highway. County prosecutors made the stunning revelation after an LA Superior Court Judge handed Pearce sentences for a string of sexual assaults and two murders.
