Mike Tyson's daughter dies

Staff Reporter | Posted May 27, 2009 1:20 AM

Mike Tyson's 4-year-old daughter has died. Exodus Tyson passed away at a hospital Tuesday, one day after her neck was reportedly caught in a treadmill cord at her home in Phoenix.

Police called it a "tragic accident." Meanwhile, the Tyson family issued a statement calling for privacy. "There are no words to describe the tragic loss of our beloved Exodus," the statement said. "We ask you now to please respect our need at this very difficult time for privacy to grieve and try to help each other heal."

There's a special place in our hearts for all innocent kids. Our hearts go out to the Tyson family, but please Mike stay focused. You are dealing with depression for life. Stay focused on the good memories.

Un-thinkable tragedy. Mike my condolences. And all these haters, and cowards who have been bashing the man at such a tough time. Get a life! And pray no one pours salt in yours wounds when your hurting.

My 3 year old son drowned 15 years ago and it almost killed me. Big Mike, my heart goes out to you and your family. I know that no words can describe the pain you're feeling right now. No parent should outlive their child and when a tragedy like this happens, your faith is shaken down to its foundation. Please stay strong and rely on the Lord to get you this. My son and your daughter are in the best place possible. I still have a picture of my son in my wallet. Memories of him keep me going. In time, memories of your daughter will do the same for you.
