Six-year-old Liberty Mae Battaglia was shot and killed by her father, John Battaglia, in his Dallas apartment on May 2nd, 2001. Liberty and her older sister, Faith's, murder was a wake-up call to law enforcement, who over the next few years proceeded to make more airtight, protective domestic violence and abuse laws.
A famous bearer of this name is the daughter of British Conservative politician George Osborne, Liberty Kate Osborne, by his wife, Frances Osborne née Howell. :-)
The Statue Of Liberty is named after the word Liberty meaning "freedom." The French gave this statue to the USA as a gift representing the newly aquired freedom granted to the United States Of America!
