Toddler Dies After Being Scalded, Mother Arrested:

39 year old Yolanda Guadalupe Perez of La Quinta, California was arrested in the scalding death of her daughter, 3-year-old Delilah Urrutia. Perez originally claimed that the girl knocked over a pot of boiling water on herself. However it was later determined that Perez never sought medical treatment for her daughter and sent her to her room for ‘misbehaving’

Also an autopsy revealed that Delilah had other injuries from long term abuse.

Thanks to Bridget for the tip.

    OMG That had to been so very painful, poor baby.
    I remember when my oldest was about 2 years old. She was clingy, wanting to be held at all times,even as I prepared meals, one time I was carrying a dish to the table when it slipped out of my hand, some of the hot food hit her legs, I ran immediately to the bath to run water to wash off her legs all the while telling her how very sorry I was, kissing her tears away. I can’t imagine the pain or how much that poor baby must have been crying for someone to help. *cry’s with just the thought*

    that is soo soo soo sad. That is no way to discipline a child for misbehaving. But shes in a better place now and doesnt have to suffer anymore. Rest in Peace mija.

    Thank you Eric.

    April, I love it when momma bears like you protect the cubs. Yolanda too has earned her death sentence.

  • April Says:

    Angel – I can one up that one. She needs to test the temp of the oil in the french fry frier at fast food joints. Once she has tested one, drive her to the next one and test that one, then the next, and the next – and so on and so on. At the end of the day, she should have a nice relaxing rock salt rub. After all, testing oil is a hard job and no one deserves a rock salt rub more than she does. THEY volunteer to do it!!

  • Angel Says:

    I nominate her for a hot water heater tester…..for a huge hotel….make sure you turn the heat setting up as far as it will go. Do they have a “Skin Peels Off In Chunks” setting on those industrial hot water heaters? I hope so…….

    What in the hell was she thinking when she told the police that her daughter pulled the pot of boiling water down on herself? SERIOUSLY? Shes dumb as hell. I feel bad when I make my babies bath water a little to warm and my 3 year old tells me “Mama my bath is to hot.”

    She offically gets my nomination for a free punch in the pants.

  • Samantha Says:

    Hey April they are all up for giving them some gas money so they can go curb stomp the bitch!

    Hows that??

  • Kathy Says:

    Used to be that you rarely ever heard of a MOTHER harming her children. But, seems that women are just as evil these days. I can’t imagine the pain that child had to endure. There’s a neverending supply of these stories, eh. *sigh*

  • me Says:

    She should die the same torturus death that her daughter did!

  • Trench Reynolds Says:

    I know. Remember use ‘they’ instead of ‘I’.

    For example: They should curb stomp the bitch.

    See how it works? :)

    Sorry, Trench, but this story really ticked me off to no end.

  • karen Says:

    OMG.

  • Trench Reynolds Says:

    Remember what I said about threats guys. I know you’d never go through with it but be careful what you say.

  • sfdude_2008 Says:

    I’m with you, April! I’d love, love, love to get my hands on her myself! The chick likes pain? Hell, I’d give her lots of pain to boot! R.I.P. Delilah Urrutia, may God be with you, sweetheart.

  • April Says:

    This is two hours from me. Who’s in for gas money?? I’m gonna go curb stomp the bitch.
