her killer. Her murder being described as one of the most

evil crimes in Western Australian history. This is Sophia's story. Good evening, a Perth family

has just begun a brave fight to keep their daughter's killer behind bars. The horrific murder

of little Sophia Rodriguez at a Canningvale shopping centre, shocked Perth.
