Joni Meyer-Crothers, the mother of Miller's victim has come out and denied a sincere apology was ever issued to her son Isaiah. As Frank Seravalli of Daily Face-off reports:
I find it hard to believe the mother of the victim would lie. What does she gain? According to her, it wasn't just one incident between her son and Miller but a pattern of hateful and harmful incidents.
The Boston Bruins never reached out to the victims family, instead they chose to do what the sport of hockey often does and looked the other way.
If they didn't reach out to the victims family directly, how could they have possibly received all the information they needed to vet Mitchell Miller?
Don Sweeney even went as far as to say, if it were his child he isn't sure he could forgive Miller. But to make things worse, Sweeney's own team wasn't supportive of this decision.
