BATTLE CREEK, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — A vigil is being held this evening in Battle Creek to mark one year since the disappearance and presumed death of Amber Griffin.
On June 23rd, 2020, she was attending a party in Bedford Township that went late into the night. The 27-year-old was with her boyfriend Derek Horton, who investigators believe murdered her sometime in the early morning hours. Griffin, a mother of two, and Horton had a history of violence in their relationship. Several search efforts have been made to locate Amber but to no success.
Early this year, Horton was charged with open murder in her disappearance but he has not disclosed any information on her whereabouts. He is currently in jail awaiting trial.
Tonight at 6:30, family and friends will gather at Leila Arboretum in Battle Creek to hold a vigil in remembrance of Amber Griffin. The public is also welcome to attend.
