A man accused of kidnapping a 4-year-old Hidalgo girl told a judge that he just wants to die.
Christian McMillan was charged with kidnapping, aggravated sexual assault of a child and other criminal charges.
He's accused of kidnapping the girl from her near her home last Tuesday.
Authorities found her 24 hours later at a farm where McMillan lived outside Mercedes.
Officials say a valuable lesson can be learned from this abduction.
"He was casing the neighborhood for three days," Special FBI Agent John Johnson said. "If you see a suspicious vehicle in your neighborhood, call police. You never know what that person could be up to."
McMillan is facing up to 99 years or life in prison.
