Dad Killed Daughter Carrying His Baby: Cops

Body is tossed into boiler

Share

(Newser) – A 14-year-old girl strangled by her father was carrying his baby, prosecutors revealed yesterday. Miguel Matias, 36, has confessed to killing his daughter because he caught the teen typing  "sexy things" on her computer, reports the New York Daily News. Authorities have now discovered that DNA taken from girl's fetus matches her father's. Her naked body was tossed in a boiler in the family's apartment building. Matias has now been charged with rape and incest, in addition to murder.

I agree he should be killed but New York doesn't support the death penalty, therefore, I hope he rots in prison.

Killing him is not the answer... Not sure what is. I am not sure as a society we should kill people no matter how horrific their crime. My heart and soul cries for these atrocities. I hope her family is okay and I hope he suffers to his last days. Reply
