In this heartwarming photo from their family album, we see Seorin Kim cradling her precious daughter, Lesley Kim. However, this beautiful moment has been shattered by tragedy and heartache as Seorin and Lesley have both passed away. The Kim family has taken legal action against Seorin's husband and father of Lesley, Nicholas Myklebust, who has been charged with murder in their deaths.
Seorin's parents have filed a wrongful death lawsuit in hopes of preventing Myklebust from profiting from their shared assets. The lawsuit explains that Seorin and Lesley both tragically passed away on July 29th after an incident at their home on North Syracuse Street in Denver. When the police arrived, they found Lesley deceased and Seorin with fatal injuries. Myklebust also had bruises and scratches on his body, but claimed that Seorin had fallen from a step stool. However, the injuries did not match his story and Seorin was found near a bassinet in their bedroom.
The cause and manner of Lesley's death have not yet been determined, but she was found with no visible external injuries on a bed. This is not the first time that a child has died under Myklebust's care. In 2021, the couple's first child, Bear Myklebust, passed away at only 9 days old. Although he suffered skull fractures, no charges were filed and his death was ruled to be undetermined.
Myklebust was arrested on July 29th and charged with first-degree murder and tampering with evidence in Seorin's death. However, he has not been charged in Lesley's death and no charges were filed when Bear passed away in 2021. Seorin's parents are seeking damages for a wrongful death claim in her case. Seorin and Myklebust were together for 25 years and married for 11, and Seorin worked as a forensic accountant for the FBI in Denver. Both Bear and Lesley were conceived with the help of fertility treatments.
Myklebust is due in court on Friday for a status conference in the murder case. The Kim family continues to mourn the loss of Seorin and Lesley, and their story serves as a reminder to hold our loved ones close and cherish every moment.
