HOPKINTON, Mass. The death of a teen whose body was found near her family’s Hopkinton home last month has been ruled a suicide, authorities said Tuesday.
The state’s medical examiner found that 16-year-old Mikayla Miller, who is Black, died by suicide, according to a statement from the Middlesex District Attorney’s office. But the office said the case is still under investigation.
Violence in Boston says independent autopsy results will be released
Strothers could not be reached for comment on Tuesday. Monica Cannon-Grant, of Violence in Boston, also could not be immediately reached.
However, on Tuesday, in an online talk show called “Java With Jimmy,” Cannon-Grant said an independent autopsy has been completed and she plans to release its results on Thursday.
Cannon-Grant also claimed Ryan’s office leaked information to a news source about criminal charges filed last year against Strothers for allegedly striking Miller. Cannon-Grant said the charges are expected to be dropped in July.
Ryan, in a statement on Tuesday, said her office has spoken to the attorney of Miller’s family about the ruling, but did not say what that conversation entailed.
