Parents Sentenced in Daughter’s Death After Failing to Obtain Medical Treatment for Her

Even after repeated admonitions to obtain medical treatment for their daughter Marissa, Jeremy and Astrid Ikeler failed get her treatment, which led to the 15-year-old’s death of a seizure in January 2014. The father pled guilty to criminally negligent homicide and will serve up to four years in state prison. His wife, who pled guilty to attempted criminally negligent homicide, was granted a one-year conditional discharge. Click on the video above for my comments on the parents’ role and sentences.
