    make sure to watch Humboldt: The New season coming in April. It is a documentary not made by a third party, but rather by those who were affected by this tragedy. It is a heartfelt love letter to those who died and those who live with the pain the tragedy caused. I have no involvement with the film. Not a sponsorship, but it is something that needs to be seen and a story that needs to be told.
