Nicholas Miller death notice

I imagine these stories are connected. If so, I hope it is not a family member who is responsible for his death.  Rest in Peace, little Nicholas.

and the stepfather has been arrested for unintentional second degree murder and is scheduled to be arraigned. The poor baby... No child deserves to live with an abusive parent. I saw on the news that the child had old injuries that were never treated.

I hate stories like this. I hate animals like those that inflict injuries on children. I pray they are wrong about the stepfather, but it doesn't look like it.

If it's true that he died at his step-father's hands, it's disgusting that he is named as a "survivor" in the obit. Where was this child's mother while the ongoing abuse was occurring?! Shame on her.

  Is the mom culpable in the death? I happen to know her, and she works. If this happens while she's there, then not so much. The point is, leave her alone, let her grieve. She's someone trying to make something of her life, and piling on, while popular, is just additional hurt. Don't you think that thought runs through her head every second of every day.

  I think the paper should take the names of all of us who post, and save them. Then make them public if, God forbid, this ever happened in their families.

  In other words, give the Mom a break.

I know these people and ALL of them should be put away and the kids taken to foster care.  That means, mother, father, stepfather, grand parents and her parents.  This mother isn't even 18 and has 3 kids.  The father has 3 kids and is a teen, the step father has kids by other women.  Kids trying to raise kids.   The family's knew something was amiss but nobody, not one spoke up.  Just turned and looked the other way.  This little guy was injured 5 days before somebody thought maybe he should see a docter.  You give me a break previous poster.  Where was he on Saturday and Sunday?  Those days were not mentioned.  At his real Dad's perhaps, who in such a case if just as guilty as the rest.  There is no excuse for this baby's death.  NONE.   The only one with half a brain was the little 6 year old step sister who told her mother that her dad was being mean to Nicholas and SHE blew her off.  Now I hear he had a broken back.  He probably would have been an invilad if he would have survived and brain damaged too.  God be with you little one - suffer no more.

It's a very sad story, and a tragic thing to happen to the boy. My thoughts go out to the family.

I have know tylar for about 5 years now, and i never thought he would do something like this. I helped him with his daughter (who is now 6) when no one else would. I know his background, and it's a rocky one. I just never thought he could do something so cruel to a child.

As far as the family, my only questions is. Where were you? To be so young and have kids, it happens. There is no excuse as to why no one had said anything to the athorities about the kids. If the kid has a bruise, wouldn't you ask where it came from? I'm a mom, and my son gets into everything, i know i would want to know if he showed up with a bruise. The only one who did say something was hailey, and they blew her of because she was a six year old kid..You can't blame one person for neglect, if you see the kid and there is something wrong and you don't do anything about it..you are neglecting that child..

Let this story be a lesson to everyone.

I am in shock that this happened. I know the mother, and I know that she would have done something about it if she was with. The reason I say this is because of this story.

The mother (who is in fact 18) was at her home while the step-father took him to his parents house in Wisconsin.

She works so she can make ends meet for her and her children. She has worked since she first got pregnant with her daughter. That, in my mind, shows a responsible woman who knows that it is hard and expensive to take care of children.

My personal view is that we should stop attacking the mother, and maybe take a look at someone else. She did the best that she could.

There is hell. These people to say they did not know what was going on. Bull*hit.

They will all be shoveling coal. I am sure they will burn for this!!

Unintentional....WHATEVER!  I hope he rots in hell in prison and the person that calls herself a Mother??  REALLY?...this story is so tragic, my heart goes out to that little guy...The only peace I have is knowing that he is now an angel with god and isn't suffering anymore!!  I don't feel sorry for any of them....The Mother deserves to greive....who really cares about her at this point....!   She shouldn't be allowed to keep her kids or ever have anymore...  And who really cares if she has a job or not, what does that have to do with it???  SICK!!!

Nicholas, may your sweet young innocent soul rest in peace forever.  You will never be in pain again.  This cruel world was never a place for you and God has called you back into his arms. 

My prayers and thoughts go out to Nicholas's family, especially his mother.  She has lost a child and that is something no mother should have to go through.  Let the justice system handle the step-dad.  His worst punishment will be the day he stands outside the gates of heaven and God casts his evil soul down to hell.  Evil people will never be happy with themselves and their lives.  Now he can rot in jail and be taken away from his biological kids. 

We shouldn't judge the mom.  We have no idea where she was or what she was doing.  This is such a SAD story to hear about.  I encourage all single parents with young kids who date or get remarried to always keep a watchful eye out for their kids.  You never know what occurs when you are gone.  So many kids are sexually and physically abused by step parents.  It's so sad and tragic.  Man, I wish there was something I could have done to save this poor kid's life.  RIP Nicholas....

Is anyone doing the math? If the babies back was broke for five days that means it was broke while in the care of his other household. The sad thing is that many people are jail wrongly. The stepfather was the easy one to pin. He maybe the one, but I think if you all go to dakota county web site and read the complaint word for word there is alot of people responsible for this babies death. Where is the responsibility of the mother who knew and watched her baby get worse everyday and did nothing. I think as we watch this story unfold there will be a few surprises. Ya know there is a few sayings in law and one is "If it don't make sense it probally is not true."

Never take your own revenge, beloved, but leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written, "VENGEANCE IS MINE, I WILL REPAY," says the Lord.

My gut instinct is that every member of that family deserves to rot behind bars, and all the children should be given a chance at life in loving homes.  But I have this to say for whomever is responsible:  God knows what you did.   The worst punishment we on earth could deliver will pale in comparison to God's vengeance.   The demons of hell will claw the flesh from your bones over and over again for all eternity for what you did to this little child of God.

To an extent we are all to blame for what we've let this society come to that puts so little value on human life.  Who we vote for, what we see on TV, what video games our kids play.....

I am so sorry this world treated you as it did, Nicholas, and may you rest in peace in God's arms.
