My name is Catherine Burke. I am a VICTIM of a Violent HATE Crime! I am the mother of a MURDERED Child!
I wish I could stamp those words on my forehead, tattoo my entire body with those words! My name is all that is left of the woman I once was!
Our 18 year old daughter Saskia was viciously, violently stabbed to death here in our home December 20, 2011 by William Gary Simpson! Simpson grew up as a friend of our son's, a friend of our family - we'd known him over 10 years! What we didn't know until after his attack, is that he was raised by a black supremacist!
We raised our children in a warm, loving, family oriented home. I stayed home to raise my children. I spent every day of Saskia's entire life with her! We have always had many children choose to spend time at our house, with our family. They liked to enjoy the structure of a family unit, a place where “mom” was always present, always involved. A home where dinner was cooked, and the family ate together, EVERY SINGLE NIGHT! These children thrived on being listened to and included in an unbiased and unprejudiced environment. And they have always felt loved and accepted, here in our home. In a world where it is hard to find all of these things, our home was ‘sanctuary’ for children. My strong belief that it takes a community to raise the kids, held each child to my own high moral standards. This too, helped each child to become a better person, which in turn made the environment for my children better too! Because you see – I once believed it was possible, to make the world a better place, one child at a time. And when I look back, at all the children I’ve made a difference to? I can think of nothing better a person could ever hope to do with their life! I have succeeded in making a positive difference in this world! And the personal reward I receive – is the overwhelming love and respect from everyone in my life!
December 20, 2011
William Gary Simpson came into our home that morning, with the intention of killing my husband and three children, myself, and the 7 other children staying with us over Christmas break. Why? Because - he could not stand for such an 'inferior race' to have so much love in their home! He could not tolerate my children, and all the other children, being loved so unconditionally, the way he wanted his 'superior black parents' to love him! And so, he planned for almost one year... He 'practiced', not only by taking self defense, sword fighting and martial arts classes at college - but by killing! And then he came with an entire duffle bag filled with knives, watching our home for over 2 weeks while hiding out in a nearby foreclosed home, waiting for the optimum moment - to annihilate us all!
Saskia went downstairs at 4am for a bottle of water. Simpson attacked her with a 15 inch knife, slashing and stabbing into her 9 times before before inflicting the fatal wound (stabbing the knife down through her neck to the hilt, sending all 15 inches of blade down through her chest ripping through her heart). Our entire house awoke to the sound of her screams! "AAHHHH!" We ran downstairs, "AAAAHHHHH!" as Saskia continued to scream "AAAAAHHHHHH!!!" in pain and terror, "Daddyeeeeee! "AAAAAAHHHHHHHHhhhh!", to discover Saskia already dead on the floor. And Simpson, standing over her with that knife, dripping with her blood.
We fought with Simpson, and he stabbed my husband (3 times in the back, puncturing his lung) and another child (twice severing the main artery in his neck) before escaping. Simpson was caught after a 4 day manhunt. When he escaped our house, he went directly to a mental institution, and checked himself in. NOT because he was crazy, but because this too had been part of his PLAN! He never really thought he would ever need to implement this part of the plan, because he truly thought he would succeed in killing us all! With no witnesses left alive, no one would ever figure out who did it! Simpson's mother picked him up from the institution after two days, and hid him in her home for two more, until her son-in-law called the police to turn him in Christmas Eve.
I share this with you here, in this personal place to speak out loud, and tell you the things of such horror and terror, things I am not suppose to speak of until we go to trial! We are now awaiting the prelim, still... Simpson has been charged with capitol crimes, and faces the Death Penalty. Simpson says he is innocent. His mother says we are mistaken, as we are white, and therefore all blacks must look alike to us. But I SAW Simpson - mercilessly stab that child twice, and I looked into his smiling face as I was hitting him for murdering my child! If my husband had not lost his grip, because he was bleeding so profusely, I WOULD HAVE KILLED WILLIAM GARY SIMPSON RIGHT THERE IN MY LIVINGROOM! The image of his murderous smiling face is burned into my mind!
I would have never thought, I would find myself to be the Mother of a MURDERED CHILD, the Victim of a heinous, Violent Crime. Not only, can no one understand what it is, to be me... No one, can look inside the reality we are left to live with! People on the outside refuse to see the unfortunate truth of our reality - that Simpson is a continued threat, every day he lives... To be permitted to communicate with the outside world, because as we VICTIMS KNOW - murderers have their RIGHT to their weekly phone calls to ANYWHERE... Something I discovered in April when Simpson called OUR house from jail! Simpson has the RIGHT to contact OTHER BLACK SUPREMACISTS, who can come to kill us, whether it be to remove the witnesses for him, or to finish what he started... Our REALITY, is that at any moment, it could all happen again!
These "Black Racist" people took our daughters photo from her facebook page, in the first few days proceeding his attack (While our home was a crime scene investigation, and our family was in protective custody, being hidden in a safe house, while Simpson was being hidden in his mothers house). They have used our daughters photo in their BANNER for their racist magazines, promoting hatred of the white race, and posting our home address in the article, stating "Mommy Catherine Burke's Tears & the Universal Race Karma Killing of Daughter , Saskia: Was William Chosen by God to Exact Vengeance Upon 4th Removed Generation Devil Whose Forefathers' Sins Sat On Her Head? Saskia's mother's tears tears are hypocritical & empty. For this is what her morally depraved forefathers purchased for her! Brother Simpson called by God to fulfill vengeance against despised Burke family."!

Simpson's attack started a landslide upon our lives, that has left us upside down and backwards and inside out! We here, at this site, all know what an impossible task it is to live beyond murder! For our family? - We can never unbury ourselves from the rubble!
Our son Ian and his best friend Derrick, both grew up being friends with Simpson. Ian and Saskia were only two years apart, inseparable since Saskia's birth, Saskia was Ian's closest confidant, best friend, and beloved sister. And Ian has been so severely betrayed by Simpsons murder of his sister!
And our youngest child, Kessa, who is only 13 - witnessed all that happened here that morning! Her sisters murder, her parents and friend attacked! She lives with the complete devastation of her life, and her family!
Simpson has taken too much from us! He took our beloved Saskia, it the most brutal and heinous way! He took our Constitutional Rights of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness! He took away our trust in others, our sense of safety in our own home. He took every good moment ever to come in our lives – and tainted it with sorrow and sadness that Saskia is not there to enjoy it with us! Most of all, he has left us to live, with HORROR! Something that is profoundly unimaginable to live with, and yet for us, we have NO CHOICE!
I will spend every moment I continue to live hearing Saskia’s screams! And feeling guilty, for not taking my leave of this life to be with her. I am forever torn between two plains of reality – life, and death! Because I KNOW THE ANSWER, to the question everyone asks… “What would Saskia want me to do now?” I had this conversation with her once. She said to me “momma, if I were to die, I would want you there with me! Don’t wait a single second! Hurry, because I would need you to be there with me! I couldn’t stand to be alone!” Every second spent living, is spent forsaking my Saskia! I do not simply wish for death, I physically ache for it with every breathe!
Please let me introduce you to Saskia Savana Burke!

Saskia was only 18 years-1 month-14 days-28 minutes old, in the middle of her Senior Year of High School! Saskia was academically brilliant, scoring the perfect 600 on the state testing twice, yet humbled by how easy this was for her, and how difficult school was for others! Saskia went out into the world, with love and a special insight for all things, and continued her mothers work to change the world in positive ways! Saskia added her own special touch to the details of everyone’s life, every person she ever encountered. She was open and caring and giving to everyone, always! She was truly the most angelic creature any of us will ever encounter here in this life. How many people can you say are truly genuine? Saskia was. And she infected each one of us with her passion for life, her kind and loving nature, her ‘real’ and ‘true’ happiness, the simple sound of her oh-so-contagious laughter!
I will let Saskia’s words speak loudly for us all! Because this, the most precious gift in life, is what Simpson has taken, and can never be returned to us:
" I value my happiness. I value how happy and content I am with my life. I value the memories that have made my life as happy as it is. I value my friends and family who make me happy and share my happiness with me. I value all the things that make me happy, like fun and relationships, but what I value most is the fact that I am happy because there are so many people who are not that lucky. I value my happiness the most because the friends and items that you have may change, and circumstances may change, but the fact that
I AM HAPPY WITH WHAT I HAVE
AND WHO I AM -
IS THE MOST PRECIOUS GIFT
THAT I COULD EVER BE GIVEN!”
Having Saskia in our lives, and being a "complete" family was OUR MOST PRECIOUS GIFT, and truly made us happy! And inside this box Simpson has placed us in – of horror and terror, misery and pain, hopelessness and injustice, there simply "is" no happiness!
I wish I could stamp those words on my forehead, tattoo my entire body with those words! My name is all that is left of the woman I once was!
