Boston Globe 10/21/11: Wayland residents look for answers to teen-dating violence. About 150 people gathered at the First Parish Meeting House here last night for a panel discussion on teen dating and violence, a topic that residents said has haunted the community since 18-year-old Lauren Astley was allegedly murdered by her ex-boyfriend in July. Before the discussion, in memory of Astley, friends and family tied scores of coral-pink ribbons to the fence in the front of the church in the town center. Those attending the discussion, "Preventing Dating Abuse and Promoting Healthy Relationships: A Whole Community Approach to Supporting Youth," said they wished they had known how to recognize signs of a failed teen relationship.
