I haven't followed the case. Please forgive me if I'm way off base, but I would now consider him a major suspect.

Is it just me, or does Noel seem to be an enabler/apologist for this guy?
Who writes these articles? That is some of the most screwed up and mangled English that I have seen in any media article. Looks like it went through Babelfish twice. Did the "journalist" finish grade school?
(Perhaps he had been reading this newspaper article.)Slain girl's mother says pressure led to fiance's injuries
CHARLES CITY (AP) Evelyn Millers mother said her fiance cut his wrist with a knife out of frustration with the pressure from law enforcement officers and their failure to find her daughters killer.When he is hurting, he hurts himself, Noel Miller said Thursday.
Her fiance, Casey Frederiksen, cut his wrist on Wednesday. He had been reading a newspaper article in which Evelyns father, Andy Christie of Waterloo, had been critical of her and Frederiksens parenting, just before he cut his wrist, Miller said.
Miller said it took six stitches to close the cut. Frederiksen is recovering in a Mason City hospital and should be released by Monday, she said.
Five-year-old Evelyn Miller disappeared July 1 from the apartment in Floyd where she lived with her mother, Frederiksen and two young brothers.
Her body was found six days later in the Cedar River, about two miles from her home. Her death has been ruled a homicide, but details about how and when she was killed have not been released. No arrests have been made.
Miller and Frederiksen moved to a house in Charles City after Evelyns funeral. Miller said her neighbors have treated her and Frederiksen with suspicion and hostility.
They stand outside and watch us all the time, she said.
Lance Miemi, 25, said he heard screaming and bickering at the Miller and Frederiksen home about 7 p.m. Wednesday. After police and medics arrived, Miemi said he saw a police officer throw a knife into the front yard. Then, he said, he saw Frederiksen run out the back door.
Two cops took him down and handcuffed him, he said.
Frederiksen, with a bandage on his wrist, then was put on a stretcher and taken to a hospital, Miemi said.
Fiance of Evelyn Miller's mother ordered to hospital
By Jennifer Meyer Staff writer, Charles City PressThe fiance of Evelyn Miller's mother has apparently been court-ordered to receive further care after cutting his wrists Wednesday night.
Casey Frederiksen was seen waiting outside a squad car in the ambulance bay at Floyd County Memorial Wednesday with two Floyd County sheriff's deputies at about 9:30 p.m. A sheriff's office document shows that at 9:28 p.m. two deputies transported a male mental subject from the hospital to the behavioral services unit at Mercy Medical Center-North Iowa, in Mason City.
According to the hospital's Web site, the unit offers psychological evaluations, psychotherapy and psychiatric care, among other services.
The report states the male subject was transported on an order from a magistrate judge.
Frederiksen, lying on his stomach and with his bandaged wrists restrained behind his back, was carried from his back yard on a stretcher and placed in an ambulance about 7 p.m. on Wednesday.
Police and ambulance personnel were dispatched at 6:22 p.m. following a report that a male had cut his wrists at the 902B E St. residence that Frederiksen shares with Noel Miller, Evelyn's mother.

Neighbors reported hearing yelling and screaming coming from the house just before police and paramedics arrived Wednesday.
A woman visiting neighbors at the time of Wednesday's incident said Frederiksen ran out the back door about 10 minutes after police entered.
Several neighbors also reported seeing a bloody knife thrown from the front door onto the lawn after police entered the house.
Charles City Police Chief Mike Wendel said Thursday that no charges have been filed as a result of the incident.
Miller left the residence a short time after the ambulance departed with Frederiksen, witnesses said.
Last week, Miller and Frederiksen told KCRG-TV they feel they've been unfairly targeted by investigators and judged by the community. The day before, investigators searched the couple's former apartment complex in Floyd.
Evelyn's father, Andy Christie, of Waterloo, told KCRG-TV Wednesday night that he hasn't spoken with Noel Miller since his daughter's memorial service.
Christie and his wife, Lindsey, said they contacted the Iowa Department of Human Services after Evelyn said some unusual things but, ''DHS never believed anything we said.''
Could be a guilty conscience that caused him to 'attempt' suicide.
Seems like she's more worried about her boyfriend than finding her daughter's murderer. I'm always mystified at the women who seeming abandon their families for some new guy who comes along.
Sure, sure, that's perfectly normal. Wouldn't hurt a fly.
