I am deeply sorry for unexpected loss of your young son. This tragedy needs to be investigated more thoroughly by independent private investigators, and knowledgeable law firms.
No, nothing can bring Miles back now, he is home safe, and at peace. Out of this punitive, punishing, rapacious world
May he rest in peace! And perpetual light, eternally
