Brandon Lee Toseland is accused of keeping the boy's mother captive after killing her 4-year-old son. She was rescued after sending her daughter to school with hidden sticky notes asking for help

The death penalty will be considered in the case of a Las Vegas man accused of kidnapping and killing a 4-year-old boy andwhile keeping the boy’s mother captive, a prosecutor told a judge during a brief schedule-setting hearing on Friday.

Clark County District Court Judge Tierra Jones postponed Brandon Lee Toseland’s arraignment until at least April 15 on 10 charges including murder, kidnapping and child abuse in the death of the boy and felony domestic battery alleging that he choked the child’s mother. Toseland appeared by video hookup from the Clark County Detention Center, where he has been held without bail since his arrest Feb. 22. Defense attorney Augustus Claus said outside court Friday that Toseland, 35, will plead not guilty to all charges.

Police said they found Toseland in a vehicle with the boy’s mother after the boy’s 7-year-old sister gave her teacher a handful of sticky notes from the mother that said she was being held captive and thought the girl’s brother was dead at Toseland’s house. Police said they also found handcuffs with the woman in the car.
