OGDEN -- Alexis Rasmussen died of a drug overdose late Sept. 10 or early Sept. 11 in the home of Eric and Dea Millerberg where she was baby-sitting.

The overdose was not intentional, rather the reckless result of child abuse, Weber County Attorney Dee Smith said at a Tuesday afternoon news conference.

After a four-month investigation, Eric Millerberg was charged Tuesday with child abuse homicide and three other felonies in the death of the North Ogden teen.

Attorneys 'negotiating' over charges against Dea Millerberg

Last updated Wednesday, December 21, 2011 - 11:24pm

OGDEN — The word “negotiation” was heard Wednesday for the first time in Dea Millerberg’s possible involvement in the death of Alexis Rasmussen.

The 16-year-old was baby-sitting at the North Ogden home of Eric and Dea Millerberg when she disappeared Sept. 10. Both Millerbergs were arrested on unrelated charges as the search for Rasmussen turned into a murder investigation, keyed on items seized from the Millerberg home as well as the impoundment of their two vehicles.

Rasmussen’s body was located Oct. 18 in a remote Morgan County location.
