(Jenna Fisher/Patch) HOPKINTON, MA — One week ago, the death of Mikayla Miller had received almost no attention outside Hopkinton. But over the past week, after intense media attention and new details released by law enforcement, the case is well known across the state and has drawn the attention of politicians like U.S. Sen. Ed Markey, U.S. Rep. Ayanna Pressley and state Senate President Karen Spilka.
