Elijah Mills, 35, was convicted of neglect of a dependent resulting in catastrophic injury or death, battery resulting in serious bodily injury to a person less than 14-years-old and battery resulting in the death to a person less than 14-years-old. The charges are Level I, Level II and Level III felonies.Mills is the father of the child, who was rushed to the hospital on Nov. 12, 2019. The child was later transported to Riley Hospital for children.
According to the prosecutor's office, during the trial, first responders described finding the victim, who was a 4-year-old at the time, with bruises in various stages of healing over his body, which also appeared very small for his age. The child was rushed to Riverview Hospital and transferred to Riley Hospital for Children where emergency neurosurgery was performed.
Mills' partner at the time, Taylor Abrams, is scheduled for a jury trial at 9 a.m. on May 9. She is charged with neglect of a dependent resulting in catastrophic injury or death and a misdemeanor charge of failure to report.
