In May of 2022, Muhammed Almaru brutally beat his 17-year-old daughter Mia to death with a pole and rubber mallet. When police arrived at the home, Almaru had self-inflicted wounds and had taken pills as an attempt to commit suicide. Almaru and Mia argued over her senior prom and whether she was allowed to go or not, Almaru told her he did not trust her to go. He believed she was keeping things from her and stated that he "would beat the information" out of her if necessary after he went through her phone. Mia had contacted a relative that same week and said she was afraid her dad was either going to beat her or kill her, and that is exactly what happened. Almaru eventually confessed and admitted that he "fucked up" and "is sorry" for what he did. He was sentenced to 55 years in prison.
