Abusive Adoptive Parents
Jorge And Carmen Barahona
My goodness, this is one of those cases that make you want to scream in anger. My heart aches for this little boy and his twin sisters and all the things they went through in the hands of those who were supposed to love them and care for them.
Those who read my posts on these type of crimes, you know exactly how I feel. Death penalty for child abusers!
QUOTE It's the kind of sadistic child abuse from which horror films are made. Adopted children, imprisoned in their bathtub, unable to escape because their father allegedly duct taped the shower curtain to the walls. One boy being burned with an acid or petroleum-type chemical, with previous evidence of torture all over his little body: a fractured clavicle and arm, scarring on his lower abdomen and buttocks and ligature marks on his wrists, implying that this 10 year old child had been tied up like an animal, straining to break free.
Investigators in West Palm Beach, Fla., believe the two people responsible for this, and so much more, are the children's adoptive parents, Jorge and Carmen Barahona.
Jorge Barahona's public defender left the West Palm Beach Courthouse this morning to relay the news to Barahona that once he is released from the hospital, he will likely go straight to jail.
Circuit Judge Ted Booras ordered him held on a $1 million bond, saying the 53-year-old father of four adopted children is "not only a flight risk, but a danger to himself and a danger to the community." For now, Barahona is charged with aggravated child abuse. Many more serious charges are expected.
This gruesome story unfolded in South Florida early Monday morning when a Florida Road Ranger spotted Barahona's red pickup truck parked on the grass along I-95. Inside the cab: Barahona and his 10-year-old son, Victor, both covered in and suffering from a still-unidentified toxic chemical, first described as "acid-like" and later as petroleum-based. In the back of the truck: The decomposing body of Victor's twin sister; cause of death still undetermined.
Chase Scott, with the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office tells Fox News that the truck was finally moved from the side of the Interstate this morning.Scott says Palm Beach detectives obtained a confession from Barahona, who apparently stated that he was so distraught over his daughter's death that he was driving to kill himself. He gave his son Victor a handful of sleeping pills and told him to swallow them. Barahona then poured gasoline on himself with intent to light himself on fire, but since 10-year-old Victor's head was in his lap, he didn't...

Lds, after reading that I got so upset that I lost my appetite. 
These two people are just plain evil and like I always say why we have to waste our tax money on these low lives?

Adoptive parents? Probably a reason why they didn't have any of their own. I know couples who would be the best parents and cannot have children. It just doesn't seem fair. Breaks your heart. I hope these kids end up in a loving and supportive family.

I saw the latest news on this and there is a lot of pointing of fingers about who was responsible for allowing this to happen to these kids. The police is searching the home thoroughly for evidence.

This case upsets me so much because is one of those cases where the death of this poor little girl and the torture she endured and her brother endured could have been avoided if people would have done their job properly.
I just read the details of the lives of these kids and it is just beyond me how is possible that kids can endure all this. They wee abused and tortured by their adoptive parents but BEFORE they were adopted, take a look at how they were born:
QUOTE Born to a drug-addicted mother, the twins were placed in foster care in 2004 after their biological father was arrested for allegedly fondling a neighborhood child. He was later accused of sexually assaulting the twins. Source 4
