  • The Mother Had Issues

    From La Antonia Times:

    On Wednesday morning, Edith and her big sister, Diana Moreno, 17, were found dead, their throats slashed. On Friday, their mother, Antonia Gomez, 38, was arrested on suspicion of killing her daughters.

    Edith was found in a house in the 7800 block of Irvine Avenue. Her sister was found in a converted garage in the back, along with their mother, who was hospitalized with knife wounds to her body and wrists. A 14-year-old daughter who was not at the house when the killings happened was taken into protective custody.
    There was a list of things going wrong in Gomez's life. About eight months before, she had gotten into a scuffle with the 14-year-old. Ana Maria Fuentes, 40, Gomez's aunt, said her niece told her she was trying to defend herself and bit her daughter on the arm. The girl ran away, and after she was found at her school, she was examined, Fuentes said, adding that police and social workers questioned Gomez.
    Gomez lost her job at a sandwich shop about three months ago and was hospitalized for stress shortly after, relatives said.

    She and her three daughters moved into the pink converted garage with Gomez's mother. The girls' grandmother, Gloria Fuentes, 57, was trying to scratch out a living by pushing a shopping cart every morning and rummaging for recyclables.

    Fuentes owned the property, and until days before the killings had rented out the home in the front.

    But she was unable to make the mortgage, and with the home's value plummeting, the property went into foreclosure. Gomez, her mother and the three girls were going to have to find another place to live, relatives said.
    Gomez's brother, Bernardo Gomez Fuentes, 36, of Prescott, Ariz., said that whatever problems his sister had, they really began in the family's hometown of Ixtapa de la Sal in Mexico, where they grew up poor.

    "She didn't have the mental well-being to deal with too much pressure," Gomez Fuentes said. "I just can't visualize her doing this, killing her girls. If she did, she didn't have her five senses."

    For years she tried to make a living as a street vendor, selling candy and snacks. But about seven years ago, she came to the United States. For a while, things seemed to be going well for her, and she raised enough money to bring her three daughters to be with her.
    Of course, La Antonia does not give us information regarding whether or not this murderer was a legal or illegal immigrant. I think it is safe to assume that this murderer was illegal. Just another sob piece attempting to make people feel sorry for the poor illegal immigrants.

    They would rather die than go back to their beloved Mexico. That country that they brag so much about, the one that has a culture so superior to ours. They should wrap the bodies up in the Mexican flag and ship them all back to their homeland.
    This is the kind of stuff that I just find amazing. They do everything to maintain a Mexican way of life here, yet they would rather die than go back.
