The family of Susette Werner placed a memorial wreath at Maxwell and Ash near where Werner’s body was found Sunday. Colin Mulvany/SR.

The parents of the woman found dead Sunday after being dragged more than a mile in north Spokane have a message for the driver, who’s still at large. “I have forgiven the person that did it,” said Gene Littell, sitting in his Spokane home today with his wife, Vicky. “If he was to walk through the door right now, so help me God I would give him a hug.” The Littells are urging the driver to turn himself in. Their daughter, Susette G. Werner, 42, was found dead in the intersection of Maxwell Avenue and Ash Street about 4 a.m. Sunday. Police say she was struck near Cedar Street and Carlisle Avenue by a man driving a boxy green sport utility vehicle or van, then dragged about 15 block to the intersection/ Meghann M. Cuniff , SR.

Question: Could you forgive someone who’d dragged your child to death and then left her body in the middle of a roadway?
