On this one year anniversary of her murder, Paige Stalker's family is pleading for justice. 

Paige, 16, was killed when she was sitting inside a car on the Grosse Pointe-Detroit border. She was in a parked car with other teenagers when someone walked up to the car and opened fire.

Paige was the only one who was killed. She was a student at University Liggett School--and a scholarship is being created in her honor.

More than $150,000 is also being offered as a reward to find Paige's killer.

This week, we'll also be remembering Christina Samuel.

The 22-year-old was killed on Christmas last year -- just a few miles away from where Paige was murdered.

The Samuel and Stalker families have leaned on each other for support following the tragedies.

Samuel was a college graduate -- hoping to spend her future helping young people.

Police say she was sitting in a car with her friend when two men drove up and started shooting -- killing her, and and injuring her friend.

Police are still searching for the people responsible for her death.
