Judge Allows Press Conference on Boone County Child Neglect Case
A Boone County judge has allowed a news conference to proceed regarding the death of Kyneddi Miller, but barred discussion of statements made by her mother, Julie Miller, to a CPS investigator. Julie Miller's defense attorneys had filed an emergency motion to stop the conference, alleging improper interrogation by CPS. The judge ruled that any information gathered by CPS must be shared with both the prosecution and defense and cannot be discussed publicly. The case has raised significant questions about the conduct of state agencies and the protection of Miller's constitutional rights.
