A mother will spend up to a quarter of a century behind bars after being found guilty of severely abusing her son and burying his dead body in concrete, a Kansas court ruled on March 28.
Miranda Miller said at a hearing in the 18th Judicial District Court that she had failed as a mother to protect her son Evan Brewer, 3, from months of abuse from herself and her live-in boyfriend, Stephen Bodine. Miller accused Bodine of controlling her through domestic violence, mental abuse, and drugs, according to the Wichita Eagle.
