PBS documentary hits close to home
Last night PBS aired the premiere of "Dear Rita," a powerful one-hour documentary about Rita Martinez. Rita was shot and killed last March by a stray bullet while watching cartoons in a bedroom at her grandmother's house. In an effort to prevent Rita's death from becoming "yet another killing," her mother made a vow to fight for sensible gun laws.
