Jennifer Joyce-Maybury

Jennifer Joyce-Maybury delivered an unsworn victim impact statement at sentencing on Day 67, identifying herself as Jeffrey Bauman's aunt. She recalled receiving a photograph of her injured nephew after the bombing and spending hours unable to learn whether he was alive. She described watching him undergo operations, therapy, and the painful process of learning to stand and walk with prosthetic legs.

Joyce-Maybury said she took three months of unpaid leave to help Bauman and his mother travel from Chelmsford to Boston for treatment. She described nightmares, anxiety, difficulty sleeping, and unease in large gatherings, saying the bombing had caused severe stress throughout the family. Her statement emphasized the continuing demands of Bauman's recovery and the lasting effects on those supporting him.
