An article from the Kansas City Star gives yet another view of the fight the Johnston family is putting up in defense of their son Justin, who was killed while studying abroad in Costa Rica in June 2011. (Read Justin’s story here.)
Justin was shot by a hotel security guard when he was returning to his hotel room late at night. After his death, Justin’s family conducted in-depth investigations into the study-abroad program Justin went with to Costa Rica, but it was too late to save their son. Now the Johnston family fights for justice.
The ClearCause Foundation works to warn parents and schools of the potential dangers in international education trips. Together with ClearCause founder, Sheryl Hill, the Johnston family is working towards a safer, more monitored and sanctioned industry bringing the study abroad trips to life. ClearCause advocates for safe study abroad programs and works to protect and inform students.
