CLEVELAND — On Day 4 in the murder trial of Aniya Day-Garrett, the sister of Aniya's mother Sierra Day took the stand, revealing long before the 4-year-old's death how she noticed changes in her niece's physical appearance and behavior.
In her testimony, Day's sister described how her sister became very distant from her family and wasn’t coming around as much as she used to before she met Deonte Lewis.
Prosecutors opened with questions, asking Day's sister, who has two daughters of her own, about the relationship Aniya and Day had with the rest of the family before and after Lewis came into the picture.
Her sister said she and her siblings were close during their childhood, a bond that she said continued into adulthood.

"We were pretty good, really close. We were all each other had," the sister said.
