Infant's injuries nearly 'head to toe,' police say
Both parents are charged with injury to a child as 6-month-old girl fights for her life
By PEGGY O'HARE and ANDREW TILGHMAN Copyright 2005 Houston Chronicle
The 6-month-old girl fighting for her life after being severely abused, both physically and sexually, was covered from "head to toe" with brutal injuries, police said Friday.
The parents, Ivan Castaneda, 22, and Donna Marie Norman, 19, are each charged with injury to a child and are being held without bond. Charges may be upgraded to capital murder if the infant dies, police said.
She remains in Texas Children's Hospital's intensive care unit and is breathing on her own, but is still suffering from internal bleeding, and doctors are not sure if she will survive. The baby was penetrated or raped vaginally and anally, and her tongue was nearly severed, police said. Investigators aren't sure how her tongue was cut so severely because she doesn't have teeth....

This should serve as a good warning to our daughters about being unequally yoked.

[QUOTE=Texas Dissident]This should serve as a good warning to our daughters about being unequally yoked.[/QUOTE]Both parents are responsible for the abuse. There's no reason to believe Donna Marie was an angel until she was yoked to Ivan. Let him have her, and let the ground swallow them both.

Yes, just when one thinks they've seen the total depravity man is capable of... I've said it before and will keep on saying it, these Mexican and 'Latino' men have some kind of serious, genetic predisposition for incest, sexual perversions and assault. Whenever one reads of these kind of barbaric crimes, 9.9 times out of 10 it involves a hispanic man, yet these are the same men we open our border and welcome in to our country by the thousands each and every day. Our government does not work for its people's interest.

The federal government and a powerful local Republican congressman have been pushing for years to fortify the 3 1/2-mile stretch of border just north of Tijuana, Mexico. Their plan is opposed by California coastal regulators and environmentalists who say it could harm a fragile Pacific estuary.
Now supporters may be getting closer to victory. A provision in an immigration bill expected to pass the House next week would give the homeland security secretary authority to move forward with the project regardless of any laws that stand in the way, and would bar courts from hearing lawsuits against it.
"We need to get this thing done, and we need to do it for security reasons, and at some point we just need to do it," said House Armed Services Committee Chairman Duncan Hunter, R-Calif., whose district is just north of the border.
But environmentalists and the California Coastal Commission, the independent state agency that regulates the state's coastline, say the plan promoted by U.S. Customs and Border Protection is too extreme.
Among other provisions, it would level the peaks lining Smugglers Gulch and fill part of the deep canyon with 2 million cubic yards of dirt in order to build a road across it. The Coastal Commission voted down the proposal a year ago, saying it would erode soil near the federally protected Tijuana Estuary that's home to marshes, California brown pelicans and rare plants and birds.
"We're going to destroy our environment in the name of fear," said Peter Douglas, the commission's executive director. "Frankly, there are ways that we can do both, protecting the environment and meeting the concerns of border control and homeland security."
Coastal Commission officials contended Customs and Border Protection didn't meet them halfway when they proposed alternatives, including switchback roads through the gulch.
A spokesman for Customs and Border Protection did not immediately respond to calls for comment Friday. But Hunter said environmentalists' demands were unreasonable.
"You could run a thousand plans past some of these people. I don't think they understand the issues and I don't think they care," he said.
Rep. Bob Filner (news, bio, voting record), D-Calif., whose district encompasses the border, disagreed.
"The waiving of all environmental rules for this is just criminal," Filner said. "It's just too extensive a trade-off for the limited security advantage."
More than 10 miles of the border between the Pacific Ocean and inland hills have already been fortified with fences, lights, motion sensors and beefed-up patrols. The border agency's apprehensions of illegal immigrants declined 88 percent from 1994 to 2003.

A couple of local headlines. Messicans involved, naturally. This is in the area with relatively few messicans, unlike Southern California or Texas.

This is sickening.
[QUOTE]"We don't think these children should ever, ever go home to these parents," said CPS spokeswoman Estella Olguin.[/QUOTE]
Not only that, but if I had my way neither of these two would ever be capable of having children again once they got out of jail.

Sounds like a couple of more dirtbags in dire need of a quick introduction with one of N. B. Forrest's patented "Hemp Rope Chiropractic Adjustments".
