Upon arriving at the home, police found that the child’s mother was allegedly being held against her will by 29-year-old Glenroy Miller of the Bahamas.

$1500 bond? Let's hope he doesn't have it.

She must be terrified. He was only getting started so it doesn't seem to be afraid to finish the job.

I hope she and her child can find a safe place to heal where he came find them, should he get out.

Well done, 1st grader.

Whew. That's more of a relief.

Thank you for your due diligence and careful record-keeping!

According to the article above, he was only being held on the smaller amount.

>>>>>Miller is currently being held on a $1,500 bond, public arrest records show.<<<<<<

Also noted: >>>>>He is also being detained through Immigration and Customs Enforcement, per News 13 and CBS 2.<<<<<

I hope she is forever protected from him.
