Editor's Note: 2/26/24: Tianna Robinson pleaded guilty Thursday to a charge of aggravated murder in the 2021 death of her 4-year-old daughter Nahla Miller, Hamilton County Prosecutor Melissa Powers said in a statement. Robinson was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 30 years.
A 25-year-old woman in Ohio who has been charged with murder in the death of her 4-year-old daughter will face the death penalty if convicted, prosecutors said.
Tianna Robinson allegedly beat and strangled her daughter, Nahla Miller, until her heart stopped, according to a statement on Monday from Hamilton County Prosecutor Joseph T. Deters.
Robinson was arrested on April 13 and is being held in a Hamilton County jail on a $2 million bond, according to jail records. CNN has reached out to Robinson's attorney for comment but has not yet heard back.
"Nahla was transported to [the] Children's Hospital where she remained until she was removed from life support on April 21," Deters' statement said.
"Investigators believe Nahla had been abused for months," the prosecutor's statement said. "The Coroner's Office has ruled Nahla's death a homicide. The cause of death was determined to be strangulation and blunt force trauma, resulting in significant internal injuries."
Nahla had "a broken left arm, bruising to the lower lungs, adrenal glands, diaphragm, liver, stomach, colon, pancreas and mouth," as well as several other significant injuries, Deters said at a Monday news conference.
