LINCOLN, Neb. -- A 10-year-old girl has died, just a day after her wish to see her father was granted.
Jayci Yaeger's imprisoned father, Jason, went to her bedside Wednesday -- a visit federal authorities allowed only after being deluged with letters and phone calls from across the nation.

where’s the tissue required disclaimer?
Good. Now back to jail.
I’m sorry I didn’t include it.
A changed man.
Four years in jail on meth charges???!!!
Wow, I feel so much safer now that our War on Drugs is sooooo successful! What a stupid joke. What a waste of resources and money...MY TAX money...and for what?
I am very glad this child got to see her father and also that the father was able to be with his child. This will help in the grieving process for the whole family.
and the warden? “Not a situation serious enough to warrant a visit by the father?” What idiots!!
Sad story, but where was the drug dealing father when his daughter was growing up? If he really loved her he would not have been involved in dealing drugs and death to users whose families had to suffer the fate of their loved ones putting poison into their bodies, sold by the drug dealing father.
God bless the little girl.
Awe jeeez.
Disregard ocular O2.
does this have to turn into a freaking libertarian rant?
Wow. How do you fit all the mysteries of the universe in that thimble sized intellect?
God rest her little soul...
Four years seems really harsh. He better have been cooking up an arse-load of that stuff, shaking down locals for protection money, and periodically beating up some competition for that sentence.
Four years? That’s about $100,000 to lock up the guy, plus police and court costs.
Well, maybe this man was at a crossroads, his daughter just showed him the way.
I’m thankful for any comfort her father was able to provide her before her death.
Poor kid.
I hate it when those evil drug dealers force people to buy drugs. I wonder if they have automatic payroll deduction.
She's with the Lord now and her suffering is over. May God comfort her family and give them strength for the difficult days ahead.
It was not a liberal “rant”....it was a comment, one comment on the juxtaposition of the seriousness of the situation of a dying child, a rigid warden and an Absurd War on Drugs.
