Why Mia Joined This Campaign
November 23, 2014 was the most devastating time of Mia’s life.
Kristoff St. John acclaimed award winner of The Young and the Restless heard a mother’s
scream, a scream of desperation and something he had never experienced. This was the day
that Julian St. John was found dead in a facility that was supposed to be protecting him. Her
son was found unconscious; no one according to surveillance footage had been seen going
into his room. Julian was supposed to be checked on every fifteen minutes. This didn’t
happen. According to medical records it alleged that Julian was found immediately and
response was immediate while the incident report of emergency responders says it was
almost 30 minutes later. Julian was found with a plastic bag over his head. The lack of care,
the deliberate actions to cover-up is the reason for her
fight. Mia understands the effects of mental illness for she too suffered with obsessivecompulsive
disorder, but Mia understands that this campaign is not only the battle for
justice for her son’s death, but for those struggling for justice in the careless purloining of
those who never had a voice. Mia states that she “Will Fight until Her Last Breath.”
