Liebe Maren und liebe Louisa, auch wenn ich Euch persönlich nicht kannte, hat mich Euer Schicksal zutiefst berührt. Vor 4 Jahren war ich auch in Marokko mit einer Gruppenreise auch im Atlasgebirge, von daher habe ich mich Euch sehr nahe gefühlt. Nun seid Ihr frei und im Himmel und die Tränen der Welt und der Trauernden um Euch wünschen Euch Glück. Gott ist mit Euch.

Ich bin wirklich traurig darüber, was mit Maren und Louisa passiert ist. Selten zuvor war ich über eine Nachricht so schockiert, zwei so liebe Frauen dermaßen grausam ermordet, das ist wirklich schrecklich und abartig.
Ich empfinde tiefstes Mitgefühl gegenüber Maren und Louisa, mögen sie in Frieden ruhen.

Hvil i fred Louisa!
Resten i fred Maren!

May the perpetrators receive their just punishment!

I have not known Louisa and Maren personally, but I have seen Louisa's pictures and videos and I have read the incredibly moving tributes to her written by her friends - and she had so many! Everybody who knew her agrees that Louisa was a very special person, full of joy and energy, a brave and caring girl who embraced life and enjoyed every single day like few others. Also, everybody who met her seems to remember her smile and her loud and warm laughter, and indeed she laughs or smiles on almost every picture. While she was only 24 years old at the time of her death, she has been to more places, met more people, had more great experiences and made more friends than most other persons will in one hundred years. It is so incredibly sad and sickening what happened to her and Maren, the senseless, mindless, brutal and base killing of two young women who loved life, by a bunch of vile thugs who love only death and destruction. Like I said, I did not know them while they lived, but Louisa's unstoppable energy to live life to the fullest is an inspiration to me and, hopefully, many others, to make more out of my own life.
I cannot even try to understand how devastating Louisa's and Maren's fate has to be for their families and friends, how deeply and painfully they feel their loss. I wish them all the strength in the world in this trying time, and may they always remember the great joy, the tears, the quarrels, the fun and the laughter they had with Louisa and with Maren. Lastly, I sincerely hope that the girls are at some better place now, where no pain and no evil can reach them and where they will one day be reunited with all those who loved them and remember them.
