 When soft deleting a model, it is not actually removed from your database. Instead, a deleted_at timestamp is set on the record. To enable soft deletes for a model, apply the SoftDeletingTrait to the model:
 
-use Jenssegers\Mongodb\Eloquent\SoftDeletingTrait;
+    use Jenssegers\Mongodb\Eloquent\SoftDeletingTrait;
 
-class User extends Eloquent {
+    class User extends Eloquent {

-    protected $dates = ['deleted_at'];
+        protected $dates = ['deleted_at'];
