Gabriel Fernandez’s Mother Sentenced to Life; Boyfriend Sentenced to Death in Torture Killing Case
KTLA ^ | June 7, 2018, | Cindy Von Quednow and Eric Spillman

The boy's mother, Pearl Fernandez, 34, pleaded guilty in connection with the boy's 2013 death in February. Fernandez's boyfriend, Isauro Aguirre, was convicted of first-degree murder on Nov. 15 and a jury found true the allegation that the defendant tortured the victim.

...

Gabriel was taken to a hospital in May 2013 when he stopped breathing. He had a cracked skull and broken ribs, with B.B. pellets in his lung and groin. He was declared brain dead and died two days later.

Hatami argued that Aguirre and Fernandez worked to keep their treatment of Gabriel hidden by using make up to cover up his bruises. They exchanged text messages where they discussed how they put him in ice water.

There are some adults and “teens” who should be tortured to death for what they’ve done, but what kind of sick mind does this to a little kid.

Sickening.

Two former Los Angeles County social workers — Stefanie Rodriguez and Patricia Clement — and supervisors Kevin Bom and Gregory Merritt were charged in 2016 with one felony count each of child abuse and falsifying public records in connection with the case. Several deputies who went to the home to conduct welfare checks have been disciplined, according to sheriff’s officials. None, officials said, has been fired or faced prosecution.

8 year old boy. Rest in piece, child. You’re obviously in a much better pace now with your true Father.

Isauro Aguirre, the mother’s boyfriend and the one sentenced to death, was also involved in welfare fraud.

According to trial transcripts, the day that Aguirre beat Gabriel to death, he was in the bedroom. He picked Gabriel and carried him in and discarded him in the living room. No man with good in him would do that. And, it stated Aguirre tried to save the little boy and cried after confessing to hitting the boy 20 times.

Glad he is going to make his next case with God. He probably won’t win that one either.

Amendment VI In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.

Now why can't this include a speedy appeal, a speedy sentence, and a speedy throw of the switch to get people like this under the dirt?

The worst monsters are humans ... there's no bottom to the depths to which fallen Man can fall, once he abandons God and commits himself to evil.

It's just a very late-term abortion.

They both need to be put in with the general population with a sign on their chest saying what they did.
