camiseta barcelona 2013,
Demitri Ion Robledo was the son of Yvette and David Robledo. He was born on August 6, 1999 addicted to methadone so he was already facing many challenges.
I'm not sure how old he was in this most adorable picture but I do know how old he was when he was murdered on October 22, 2000 by a cold-hearted drug dealer that probably didn't think he was worth anymore than a eight ball. He was 14-months-old when his life was stolen.
It's sad really if you take a moment to think about it, this precious, innocent, pure baby boy is only remembered for how he died to most people because he never got the chance to live.
Demetri's mother was arrested on August 7th for cocaine. His father David Robledo reluctantly dropped him off at Yvette's friends house to be cared for while she was in jail. When David dropped his son off he also left him there with a new set of clothes, food and diapers.
There was never any mention of David doing drugs, selling drugs or knowing about Patrick and Teresa's drug habits.
Demitri was in the care of Teresa Rodriguez, 20, who was 8 months pregnant and her drug-dealer/addict boyfriend, Patrick Santillano, 33. They also had a 2 year old that camisetas retro barcelona they shared together.
It took less than 3 months to steal Demitri's precious life.
Several weeks after Yvette was released from jail she visited the garage apartment where her son was. She picked up drugs but left her child behind.
Later when Yvette and David Robledo went to pick up their son, Patrick told them he left with Teresa and would be back in a little while. Yvette and David as well as Demitri's grandmother showed up 4 more times looking to pick the child up but they were then told that Teresa went to Lompoc to visit family with the baby. David bought a used car for the sole purpose of driving to Lompoc to get his son but he couldn't find him.
On Oct. 22, Patrick told Teresa to take the boy out for some air. When she noticed he wasn't breathing right, she escaped and took him to St. John's Regional Medical Center ER. Later that night she went to another hospital to give birth.
Doctors found ulcerated lesions on his mouth, ears, wrists and ankles, as well as bruises and abrasions from head to toe.
She was arrested two days later. Teresa Rodriguez is charged with voluntary manslaughter and mayhem and is awaiting sentencing. As part of her plea, she agreed to testify against Patrick, camiseta barcelona 2013 the father of her two children and live-in boyfriend.
Patrick disappeared for several weeks but finally showed up at the police station in November 2000 and told officers that he knew nothing and did nothing. He was arrested also and charged with murder, torture, child abuse causing death, and aggravated mayhem.
The trial didn't begin until 2003 and Teresa agreed to be the key witness in Patrick's case in order to save herself.
Senior Deputy Dist. Atty. Dee Corona said Patrick hid the baby because he was suffering from serious injuries and he was trying to avoid going to jail.
Atty. Dee Corona told jurors Patrick hit Demitri numerous times and tied up his hands and feet to keep him from touching his cuts and bruises. Demitri was starved, tortured, had a sock pushed into his mouth and then tied a cloth around his head to secure it.
Ventura County Assistant Medical Examiner Janice Frank testified that there was no fat on his bony frame and no food in his stomach or intestines. He weighed only 14 pounds.
His autopsy report also showed that he suffered a massive blow to his little head at least 3 days prior to his death and had a brain hemorrhage.
Toxicology reports suggest that the boy had ingested morphine days before his death.
She camiseta retro testified that the head injury, which "could have been caused by a blow or a fall, was not fatal. But in combination with neglect and other injuries inflicted over a period of time," she said, "it likely resulted in the child's death."
"I think it was probably the last straw, so to speak," she said. Frank officially ruled the cause of death to be battered child syndrome.
