LOS ANGELES — Kris Edwards waited at home with friends for his wife, Erika “Tilly” Edwards, to go out to dinner, but she never made it back to the house they had purchased only four days earlier. Around 9 p.m. on June 29, a hit-and-run driver killed Tilly as she walked to her car after a fundraiser performance in Hollywood. kAm“x’G6 ;FDE 8@E E@ 7:8FC6 @FE 9@H E@ <66A =:G:?8] p?5 E96 92C5 A2CE H:E9 E92E :D ?@E <?@H:?8 H9J[” t5H2C5D D2:5 @7 9:D H:76’D 562E9]k^Am
