Event Raises Funds for Domestic Abuse Project in Honor of Dani J

The event was held in Woodbury on Saturday.

A 5K run/walk on Saturday honored the memory of Danielle Jelinek, whose body was recovered in May after she went missing in December 2012.

The 5K for Dani J, held at Colby Lake Park in Woodbury, raised money for the Minnesota branch of the Domestic Abuse Project (DAP) in Jelinek’s name.

Her body was found in Chisago County a few hundred yards from the home of Aaron Schnagl, a former boyfriend who has been considered a person of interest in the case.
