WALL TOWNSHIP, NJ -- A woman abducted from a Jersey shore home where her two sons were found bludgeoned to death managed to escape from her captor and run to a gas station for help, authorities said Friday.

The woman's ex-husband had called police Thursday night after she called him by cell phone, saying she had been kidnapped and forced to withdraw money from an ATM. He went to the home and found the bodies of his slain sons in the basement.

Ocean County Prosecutor Thomas Kelaher said Friday that the boys, ages 7 and 14, had been beaten to death with a hammer.

The boys' mother, Wanda Gonzalez, had been bound with neckties and wires and taken away in her own minivan, but she managed to struggle free as her abductor drove down the Garden State Parkway, authorities said. When he stopped at a gas station, she began screaming and ran to the station.

The suspect ran into a wooded area but was captured early Friday.

Richard Toledo Gonzalez, 24, described as an illegal immigrant unrelated to the family, was charged with two counts of murder, kidnapping and robbery and ordered held on $2 million bail.

There is a special place in hell for people who hurt children like this.

[martin_fierro]

Significant that the perp was actually "described as an illegal immigrant."

[Al Gator]

Just doing the murders that Americans won't.

[SmithL]

I grieve for the children, but I'm glad the mother is safe.

[LongElegantLegs]

Hey, they can't print that! It's racist.

[WayneS]

If he is guilty then he should be killed (immediately) and his dead body should be deported.

[Al Gator]

Makes you begin to like the idea of:

ROUND EM UP AND SHOOT EM DOWN

[Semper Paratus]

I'm glad the mother is safe.

She may be wishing she could have joined her children.

[saveliberty]

It's just too terrible.

[American Quilter]

Shoot him, pin a report of his crimes on his corpse, and dump it on the border of whatever country from which he illegally immigrated.

[stinkerpot65]

Yet another illegal immigrant predator.

[Habble Gabble]

This is a horrible thing and I cant believe people make jokes about it. Shame on you.My prayers go out to these poor people.

[clamper1797]

described as an illegal immigrant

Need I say more ...

[Al Gator]

Pin it to him?

Can I use a nail gun and tack it to his forehead?

While he's still alive???


Please???

[freema]

MS13?

[Red Badger]

....illegal immigrant...........

[Al Gator]

Who's making a JOKE?

This is no joke, and none was intended.

This is deadly serious.

Get that chip off your shoulder, do it now.

[MEG33]

He is a monster! May God be with the parents and loved ones of these innocent children.

[atomicpossum]

If he is guilty then he should be killed (immediately) and his dead body should be deported.

Shoot it back over the border with a cannon.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Must have gotten by a sleepy editor.

[LongElegantLegs]

I don't think that was a joke, mr. Sensitive.

[Al Gator]

Thank you.

[asp1]

How can you look upon an innocent child and then beat them to death? What kind of a monster must a person be to do that? Prayers for these poor children and their parents.

[kx9088]

This is what I like to think also.

May people like this experience and infinite amount of pain for an infinite amount of time.

[SmithL]

Welcome to Free Republic. You may want to learn how things work around here before attacking other FReepers.

[VeritatisSplendor]

NJ hasn't executed anyone since we reinstated the death penalty (twenty years ago?) and now we're going to study it some.

So long as the victims' last name isn't Bush, Cheney, or Chertoff, let's keep that border open and immigration laws as lax as ever...

[Muleteam1]

Am I reading this right? The abductee and the abductor were both named Gonzales but were not married?

[mtbopfuyn]

Another of Bush's guests he's welcomed into our homes.

[Alberta's Child]

I suspect there is more to this story than what has been made public up to now. On the radio this morning they described this guy as someone who was "living in the family's house."

[Al Gator]

Infinite pain.

Surgically castrate the bugger.

Throw him in genpop for life w/o.

Tell everybody about the surgery.

Stand back and watch.

[Ditter]

I don't think Al Gator was joking, I was thinking the same thing and I know I wasn't laughing.

[LongElegantLegs]

Gonzalez is a very common name...

[Williams]

Horrific story, but NJ will never execute him. The NJ Supreme Court spends a great deal of its time preventing anyone from being executed. In decades they have approved one execution, but I believe they later prevented taht one as well. Worst I can think of is a violent killer who shot a teenage girl in the head because he "felt like watching somebody die." The NJ Supremes prevented his execution.

Ouch!!!!

Significant that the perp was actually "described as an illegal immigrant."First ripple of a sea change?

[Alberta's Child]

Richard Gonzalez had been living with the family since October, Kelaher said.

It's kind of hard to criticize the U.S. government for failing to secure our borders when you've got some woman in New Jersey with a room-temperature IQ taking one into her own home.

[Al Gator]

"Can I use a nail gun and tack it to his forehead?
Ouch!!!!"



I was thinking of an 8p nail, but a 16p would be more fun.

US sailors who offended the locals ran the risk of turning up floating in Subic bay with their Military ID nailed to their foreheads.

[Al Gator]

Fishing "Joe" out of sh*triver was a routine morning chore.

[asp1]

I suspect that you are right. I'm not sure if that makes it more or less understandable. One thing I do know, this guy is evil and needs to be dumped back in his home country in a little itty bitty box.

Fixed your typo:

My head now hurts....thanks. :-)

[MineralMan]

"Am I reading this right? The abductee and the abductor were both named Gonzales but were not married?"

Not so unusual. Gonzales is a very, very, very common name. Sorta like Smith. Look in any phone book where there is a sizable Hispanic population.

[processing please hold]

Good heavens!!!!!!

The moral of the story is: Don't offend the Locals!

[asp1]

Correction noted. Thanks, Null. :O)

If you think he was joking, hurt a kid then tell him where you are.
