The first sexual assault in Cameron, Texas, was on the 16th of August, 2006.

A 72-year-old woman reported to police that a man had broken into her house and raped her, but she was unable to provide a good description of her attacker.

Investigators took the woman to the hospital and a sample of the man’s DNA was collected, but the authorities had very little information other than that. No witnesses were found, and nobody reported anything suspicious in the area.

Then, just less than a month after the attack, the police received a call from a woman who was worried someone was inside her mother-in-law’s house. The woman had called her mother-in-law and thought she was acting strangely.

27-year-old Jade Sanders and 31-year-old Lamont Thomas were found guilty on the 2nd of May, 2007 of the murder of their infant son.

Their 6-week-old baby, named “Crown Shakur,” died after being fed a vegan diet consisting mostly of apple juice and soy milk. Jade Sanders gave birth to Crown at home, using a water-filled bathtub. Jade Sanders and Lamont Thomas claim that the baby was not taken to the hospital because they believed hospitals were full of germs. During their child’s short life, he didn’t see a doctor until he was dead.

Their claims of feeding the baby an alternative diet might have been slightly more believable had there been more than one bottle in the house.

After Brown, a relative and paid caregiver, severely burned Mr. Lockett’s 10-year-old daughter in a hot bath, the girl wasn’t given medical treatment for over a week.

The victim, Quiniece Lockett, was blind, partially paralyzed and suffered from cerebral palsy.

Burned by the water on the 21st of April, 2007, she lay in her bed for nine days, without medical care.

The girl lay there, in agony, with burns on almost half of her body.

Police Chief Charles Kellar told the press:

If you’d see the photos and the condition that she was left in – just to lay in that bed with all those burns. I mean, it was horrible. Apparently the water had to be extremely, extremely hot. We’re looking into, right now, whether the water heater could have heated the water that hot or whether there was hot water added.

This 19-year-old delivered her baby at home.

She beat on the infant.

She strangled the infant.

After the child died, Ms. Leon placed the body in a plastic tupperware-style container.

This container and its contents were found by police during a house-wide search was conducted.

Ms. Leon’s visit to a local hospital apparently alerted the staff, who immediately recognized her recent childbirth and that the possibility existed that not all was as it should be.

This charming fellow entered his boss’ ex-wife’s house at night and killed the ex-wife’s 59-year-old mother while she was babysitting her grandchildren.

After Phillip slit the elderly woman’s throat, he left her in lying on the floor of the garage in a pool of blood, to be discovered at around half past midnight by her daughter.

Phillip Zagarella tried his very best to get the daughter to come into the house, but she ran off, calling police from a neighbor’s house to let them know that a crazy guy with a rifle was in her house with her children and that he’d killed her mother.

50-year-old Phillip Zagarella barricaded himself in the family’s house for about 14 hours while police attempted to negotiate his surrender.
