Hundreds gathered at Plaza Square Park in Orange, California, to mourn friend, husband, and Deputy Public Defender Elliot Blair, who was found dead in Mexico while celebrating his first wedding anniversary Jan. 14.
The glowing sticks in their hands gently illuminated the darkness in blue—Blair’s favorite color—as if reminiscing about the nights he and wife Kimberly Williams would dance under neon lights he had hung in their backyard.The attorney’s death at the age of 33 remains a mystery, as investigations are underway to determine his cause of death. He joined the county’s Public Defender’s Office in 2017.
