Yara Belen Perez and Francisco Castaneda
Here’s 25-year-old Yara Belen Perez.
Does she look depressed to you?
When asked by local reporters, a neighbor thought that she looked depressed.
During the weekend I did see her up on the ledge there, and she was just smoking a cigarette and she looked kind of depressed. I didn’t think much of it. It’s just the way she looks.
Yara Perez lived in an apartment with her two daughters, three-year-old Jacqueline Gonzalez and five-year-old Yara.
Also living in the apartment and rounding out this modern-day Brady Bunch was Francisco Castaneda, Yara Perez’s common-law husband and the love of her life, according to Yara’s MySpace page.
Both Yara Perez and Francisco Castaneda have a history of incidents with family members.
In March of 2004, day-care personnel caring for Yara’s older daughter reported a burn to the girl’s chest. Yara claimed that some hot milk right out of the microwave had spilled onto her daughter and, after an investigation, the burn was ruled accidental.
In October of 2007, Yara was charged with two counts of assault with intent to cause bodily injury. She had bonded out and was waiting to be arraigned in December.
Fransisco Castaneda was accused in December of 2005 of beating the crap out of his then common-law wife, punching her repeatedly in the face before police arrived and found her locked in a back bathroom, topless and covered in bruises and cuts.
And, of course, those are only the incidents that were reported to the police.
Another incident was reported to the police on the 19th of November, 2007.
This time, an anonymous call was made to 911. A female caller told the operator that she had seen three-year-old Jacqueline Gonzalez lying on the floor of her parent’s apartment, face up and motionless. She also mentioned that Yara Perez and Fransisco Castaneda told her that the child had fallen, but that she was ok.
Hmm.
When the police arrived, Yara and Fransisco insisted that they didn’t have a three-year-old, presenting Yara’s five-year-old and telling officers that she was an only child.
Ironically, that was now a partial truth.
Officers went through the apartment, which had a room that was obviously set up for two younger children. Finding no child in the apartment, they moved the search outside the apartment, walking the apartment complex grounds.
Finally the officers checked the family’s gold-colored Dodge Stratus, which was parked right in front of the apartment.
In the trunk, placed in a large plastic tub, was the body of Jacqueline Gonzales.
Yara Perez and Francisco Castaneda were immediately arrested.
During their respective interrogations, each of these fine, upstanding citizens first attempted to tell the authorities that the girl had hurt herself falling down. When that didn’t fly, they both attempted to place the blame for the girl’s death on each other.
An autopsy that was done on the 21st of November showed the world that Jacqueline death was caused by at least one incredibly hard blow to her abdomen, which caused the internal bleeding that finally killed the girl. The evidence showed that the blow was not accidental.
Police spokesman Javier Sambrano told the press:
The injuries that that child received, we feel, were as a result of injuries that were caused by the parents. The type of injuries that the child had were not consistent with a fall.
Both Yara Belen Perez and Francisco Castaneda have been charged with injury to a child resulting in death, which is a first-degree felony.
According to correctional officials, Yara Perez has been placed on suicide watch.
Her other daughter has been placed in foster care.

One more act of pos’s preying on the weak which result in the death of our children in this country. Why can’t they just beat the hell out of each other their worthless lives don’t obviously mean anything from their past, but not even letting these children grow up to experience life and possibly live a better life than their parents chose makes me sick!!
I don’t understand why the parents just dont’ beat the shit out of each other. Why must they constantly harm innocent children.
i hope these two get the shit kicked out of them in prison….
Life Lesson=== There is always someone out there bigger than you, tougher and meaner, and more fucked up than you are!! So yes I hope they get theirs in prison.
What have we as a species come to? I think we’re probably the single most self destructive organisms on the planet…
i’m with Brittany on this one, let them beat the living shit out of each other and leave the kids alone for fucks sake. I’m guessing that was already the case here though, i think Francisco would’ve most likely did all of the beating here…..
damn tHATS MESSED UP DE A MADRE,THATS SOME FUCKED UP SHIT 4REAL…FIRST OF ALL THAT PINCHE PUTA PERRA DESGRASIADA THAT FUCKING BITCH THE MOTHER OF THE GIRL IS RESPONSSIBLE 4 HER DAUGHTER AND SHE WOULDENT HAVE LET FRANSISCO HIT HER IF HES NOT EVEN THE DAD…BUT I GUESS THEY’LL GET THEIR MERESIDO UP IN PRISON…ALL I KNOW IS THAT GOD KNOWS WHY THAT HAPPEN….HOPE SHES BETTER WERE SHE IS NOW THEN WERE SHE WAS BE4..
Evil … that describes this … the mother and father.
And why is she not in jail?
Her myspace seems active still! WTF?!!!
Useless worthless fuckpigs! Yes i hope they get their dues in jail! ;(
STRAIGHT TO HELL. No stopping.
Does anyone know what ever happened to the mother and the common-law husband in this case? Were they finally put in prison and if so, how long did they get? I looked on her myspace page (which is now private) & saw she logged in as recently as 2/20/09 or someone else logged in for her. I really hope they put these two away for good. Poor Jacqueline and Little Yara deserved so much better and it’s pretty apparent they were both probably abused on a regular basis. Any mother that could put her baby’s body into a tub and throw it into her trunk is one twisted, cold-hearted cunt! (Excuse my language. I had that word, but I can’t think of a better word to describe her because she is not a mother!) Little Yara is in my prayers and I hope that she now has the chance to have a better life and a family that will love her unconditionally. Jacqueline…may you rest in peace and feel no more pain.
that must’ve been some punch to the stomach if it killed the kid. What caused whomever did it to lash out like that? It makes me wonder if they weren’t a longer line of abuse going on behind the scenes. It had been reported that there were burns to one of the girls’ chest so I wouldn’t be surprised…
i have known frank sence childhood an god knows he is not guilty an will be out we must have faith an yara hopefully will be punished for what she has done god delays but doesnt forget
I guess god has a really great sense of humor then Sandy, because he sure looks guilty to the rest of the world. Perhaps when god finishes laughing at his little joke, he’ll let the rest of us know how this happened, and how Francisco Castaneda is innocent.
Until god speaks up and clears the air, I suggest you go along with the rest of us. You know the big guy hates it when we spoil his jokes.
Well Sandy, I have known Frank for a long time now, i would always be with him, and you are right, and to all those that think that he did it well you all are going to be in for a big suprise, I know Frank doesnt have the heart to hurt kids, I should know he would take care of my girls and none of them ever complained of Frank doing something to them, they are all grown up. As for Yara, i got to read all the CPS cases opened agianst her, before Frank was in the picture. How about we also blamed CPS for not “finding a red flag” to take the girls away. One more thing thanks for defending Frank, the love of my life. All you people out there just wait and see, dont just blame Frank, because he is the guy in this situation, lets look at the loony Yara, if all of you really knew her, you wouldnt be talking crap…..Thanks Sandy
Well gee whiz Liz, it looks like a jury sure thought Frank was capable of hurting kids, because back in January of this year a jury deliberated less than five hours before convicting him of CAPITAL MURDER. As a matter of fact, the evidence showed that gentle, sweet Frank was actually the one who beat 3-year-old Jacqueline to death on Nov. 19, 2007.

Now Frank get’s to spend the rest of his life in prison, with absolutely no chance of parole. What will you and Sandy do now Liz?
Sure, Yara’s equally to blame for allowing this piece of shit to kill her daughter, but what difference does that make – it doesn’t change the fact that Frank is a baby killer – oh, wait – a convicted baby killer.
Ah, that feels really good to say. Now you two assholes have yourselves a nice life, ya hear?
