UPDATE: Stephanie Lopez, Andrew Walters, and Steven Lopez
STEVEN LOPEZ’ AND ANDREW WALTERS’ SUCCESSFUL APPEALS REVERSED BY NEW MEXICO SUPREME COURT
Back in November of 2008 when I wrote the original story (Read It Here), I said Steven Lopez and Andrew Walters had just successfully appealed their convictions to the New Mexico Court Of Appeals in the case of the abuse and murder of five-month-old Brianna Lopez. That was not entirely true. Actually the court found that all three defendants (Brianna’s mother, Stephanie Lopez, was also convicted) should not have been tried together because it violated their right to cross examine all the witnesses against them in 2006. It’s all very lawyerly, so please don’t ask me to explain the details.
Well, what I missed, because I had been given some bad information and didn’t know how to search court records at the time, was that in September of 2007, The New Mexico Supreme Court overruled the Court of Appeals an reinstated both Lopez’ and Walters’ convictions on most of the counts against them. Here’s the details of that decision.
For Andrew Walters:
Count 1 – ABUSE OF A CHILD CAUSING GREAT BODILY HARM/DEATH – Conviction Reinstated
Count 2 – CONSPIRACY TO ABUSE A CHILD CAUSING GREAT BODILY HARM/DEATH – Conviction Overturned, New Trial Ordered (Prosecution later dropped the charge)
Count 3 – CRIMINAL SEXUAL PENETRATION OF A CHILD CAUSING GREAT BODILY HARM/DEATH – Conviction Reinstated
Counts 4 and 5 – ABUSE OF A CHILD CAUSING GREAT BODILY HARM/DEATH – Conviction Reinstated
For Steven Lopez:
Count 1 – ABUSE OF A CHILD CAUSING GREAT BODILY HARM/DEATH – Conviction Reinstated
Count 2 – CONSPIRACY TO ABUSE A CHILD CAUSING GREAT BODILY HARM/DEATH – Conviction Overturned, New Trial Ordered (Prosecution later dropped the charge)
Count 3 – CRIMINAL SEXUAL PENETRATION OF A CHILD CAUSING GREAT BODILY HARM/DEATH – Conviction Reinstated
Andrew Walters ended up with a sentence of 63 years in prison plus 2 years of probation. Steven Lopez was sentenced to a total of 57 years in prison and 2 years of probation.
The bottom line is I made a serious error when I wrote this story, and felt the need to set things straight. This is why I now always search court record when they are available – They are an invaluable tool for checking facts and discovering details that you just can’t find in a newspaper article. See for yourself. You can read Andrew Walters’ court records by clicking here, and Steven Lopez’ records by clicking here.
UPDATE 05/14/2009 – Petition For The Legal Removal Of The Metal Cage And Proper Burial Of Brianna Lopez
Preamble Of Petiton:
Baby Brianna Lopez was 5 months old when she died as result of prolonged abuse and sexual assault at the hands of her father, uncle and mother. Brianna Lopez’ family were sentenced to prison for their crime. No one laid claim to this baby’s body after she had died so the community of Las Cruces came forward to lay claim to Brianna and honor her at her funeral.
Brianna’s remaining family held a small and quick burial in a private cemetery, excluding other family members. No headstone was placed at her grave, only a marker was placed on the site then the burial mound raked flat. People of the community came to honor this baby by laying flowers. As the family wanted her death to be quiet they ordered a metal cage be placed over the burial site to discourage people from honoring her. The cage has surrounded baby Brianna’s resting place for seven years. Unfortunately the family has maintained this and it is their right as it is a private cemetery.
This petition will go towards helping the District Attorney of New Mexico in achieving what baby Brianna Lopez is entitled to, the removal of the cage and a proper burial with a headstone.
Also, I found a Facebook Memorial Page to Brianna – You can view it by Clicking Here.

I wish I could have a hammer and about 15 mins in a room with them one at a time the sick fucking freaks!
I am GLAD that the convictions were reinstated and they have to stay in prison!
They should have gotten the death penalty and had it carried out by Michael Carrasco Sontoya!
It would serve them right.
someone needs to remind the CRIMINALS that GOD does NOT Forgive people that have no souls. so ROT in burning HELL Steven LOPEZ Andrew Walters and STEPHANIE LOPEZ ROT.
i hope the mother, the father, and uncle could be in jail for the rest of their life and to rot in there…. if i in prison i would go thru staphenie and beat her up the way they did to poor brianna rest in peace baby gurl
capital punchment!!!!!!!!!!!! i hope they r being raped and biten every fuckin day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sick fuckin fucks!!!!! that poor poor baby!!!!!!!! she with god now and hes hugging her and holding her like a baby should!!!!!
ALRIGHT!!!!
Any updates about the cage the family constructed around Brianna’s grave so people couldn’t leave flowers or toys?
An entire family chock full of shitweasels. Where’s a good suicide bomber when you need one, huh?
Just wondering if it was a full cage or a fence like cage, because I visited a cemetary while in Mich, Mexico. and all of the graves are fenced off for some reason. some have china hutch like things in back of the graves with nic-nac’s and crosses, I thought maybe they put the fences around the graves to stop grave robbers or something. I failed to ask why so next time I go I will question the fence-cage thing.
Having lived in NM for about 6 years now this story, unfortunately, doesn’t surprise me. It was just at the end of 2008 that the state made cock fighting illegal and some people are mad about that. I don’t have to point out for any readers on this site the relationship between animal abuse and child abuse and this state just has it all wrong! Thankfully, these disgusting fucks have been brought to justice but for far too many young ones here that just does not happen.
I read some pretty disgusting stories about abused children within the state and I just have to keep reminding myself that we aren’t in a 3rd world country on a daily basis.
Thanks for putting the story straight..i needed that….these filthy humans should be hung….how dare they do that to such an innocent child…..JUSTICE has been served…..
tears are flowing down my face, how can anyone do this to a baby?
Hung is not the word. These people should be put on a bouncy thing that bounces them up at the ceiling with little tiny spikes so they can get poked but not die. They should have the tips of their fingers chopped off one each day for 20 days and salt poured on it. The men should have their penis cut off while still awake so they can feel every pain. Then they should take hot curling irons and stick it up their ass and the mothers both ends. They should have piranhas bite them everyday in a water and leave them for dead only to torture them the next day. Break their ribs, hit them in the head with things, break their arms and legs and still pull them around. I mean they deserve every little torture possible. I have never been so mad, disgusted, upset, and horrified in my life. How can anyone do this. And to top it all off this pieces of shit that I wouldn’t spit on asked to move to an oregon correctional facility for their safety. Please, which idiot judge granted that. If I were that judge I would go in to the jail myself and made sure they got raped repeatly and tortured to the most extent without killing them so they can feel the worst pains imaginable. I just don’t know what else to say. I am so speechless over this. Having children myself, I have been holding extra tight and kissing more just because I want them to feel loved and there are scums like this walking on the planet. I seriously hope they get so messed up in jail that they beg on their knees for forgiveness but still go to hell and have pineapples shoved up their ass.
Receka,
I AGREE WITH YOU 100%!! THE DEATH SENTENCE IS WAY TO GOOD FOR THOSE SICK PEICES OF SHIT! I TRUELLY HOPE THEY SPEND EVERY SINGLE SECOND OF WHAT’S LEFT OF THIER WORTHLESS LIVES BEING TORTURED! I am a single mom, my boys are 4 and 7, and hear me when I say that I have had my share of frusteration, but I couldn’t even begin to imagine…….I WOULD LOSE ALL CONTROL IF SOMEONE EVER HURT MY BOYS! And that’s how any mother should feel! Baby Brianna, you are in my prayers, and I hope that one day soon, you may rest in peace, learn love and be happy as the beautiful little Angel that you are!
*REBEKA, I’m sorry I am just so furious that I spelled your name wrong!! Sorry!!
I remember this story… That poor baby went through hell while she was alive, and her shitty “family” didn’t even want strangers putting flowers on her grave after she was killed. That says a lot about these motherfuckers. I am so glad to hear that the convictions were reinstated. Any word on the mom’s convictions?
No worries Max. We can only do so much. The fact that the convictions were thrown out was the outrage. And still is. That they were reinstated is just a testament to the fact that there can be justice in this world.
But honestly, it’s fucking sad that anyone – ANYONE – could have even had a second’s concern about these animals civil rights. Fuck them and their civil rights. In my opinion, when you kill a baby, you should lose every right. Including the right to breathe.
Thanks Maz, that means alot to me coming from you. I felt pretty bad about missing such an important detain for what appeared to be a chance to make the original story more dramatic. I know that was never my intent, but even the appearance of of manipulating a story for the sake of a good read is something I could never live with.
I agree with you. It also amazes me that all these tree-hugging, knee-jerk, liberals want to protect all of these peoples’ civil rights. How can you call them civil rights when these monsters are uncivilized to begin with? Great story and follow-up Max. Although, a tough story to swallow. Not much makes me speechless, but this was well…um….yeah…..ah…..hmmm…..uh……
The situation remains that they defend the civil rights of others, because if they were ever on the wrong side of the law, they’d want someone to defend theirs. There’s a slippery slope here. Give everyone a basic set of rights or no one gets them.
Who the F?@# defends these idiots. If someone scum, piece of shit like them came to me for help and I was an attorney. I wouldn’t let them leave my office alive let alone defend them. What the hell is wrong with this world. Babies are innocent. Nobody was there to defend poor baby Brianna but these jackasses have lawyers to defend them. How sad. I also believe the Grandmother and other Uncle should have gotten big sentences too for not doing anything about it. What is wrong with these people.
Andrew Walters is up for Parole Oct.19,2025
He is now in Snake river Correctional Facility in Oregon.He has a roommate and even gets to play with the other inmates.I spoke with his counselor in Oregon and she told me his ass is back to new mexico for his parole hearing.I know Steven will be moved also but not the same prison.
myspace Dedicated to Baby Brianna Mariah Lopez url#babybrianna2002
Thanks for your information mama. it’s always cool when folks like yourself let us in on inside information like this, and we do appreciate it.
I’ll add the Baby Brianna Myspace page to the story ASAP.
OH MY GAWD…….It is one thing to Imagen what the child abuse looked like, but SEEING it was a whole lot worse….I cried, what kind of sick fucks would do this to a baby? sorry 57 or what ever time they got now is just not enough. they need to be beaten and raped every single day in jail, death would be too good for them. My heart hurt reading this story and the court doc’s that are on the myspace page, they need to rip this chicks reproductive organs out without any anesthetics and for the pedophiles that she would have had to call dad and uncle, I think their male parts, hands and teeth should be removed so the only thing they can touch, have sex with or bite from now on is nothing! dirty scum bags.
You know his parole officer? What else does she say about him? Is he remorseful or has anyone beaten the fuck out of him? What else is going on wtih the crazy fuck?
None of them should see the light of day vere again. And I agree, Mazzi, who cares about those scumbags’ civil rights? What about that little baby’s civil rights?
I just hope that they arent paroled ever. My heart breaks for that beautiful and innocent baby. I dont understand how.
UPDATE 05/14/2009 – ADDED A LINK TO A PETITION FOR THE REMOVAL OF THE METAL CAGE AROUND BABY BRIANNA LOPEZ’ GRAVE AND FOR A PROPER BURIAL OF HER.
Also, A Link To Brianna Lopez’ Facebook Memorial Page Was Added.
I hope their cell mates are as kind to them as they were to Brianna. They didn’t even take a photo of the baby while she was alive. The baby never had a chance. Brings tears to my eyes. Looking at these peoples photos, they don’t look like they don’t even care what they did. Seriously, hurting a baby…yeah…you are real tough.
Absolutely, Kira! Hope they are just as sweet and LOVE to play with your asses and vagina!
here is a link to the fucking Spa Andrew Waters is in http://www.oregon.gov/DOC/OPS/PRISON/srci.shtml I think it’s total bullshit that any of them should have security and get to “feel safe”. This place isn’t even a maximum security prison!! It’s a minimum and medium security prison! The whole family should be banished to an island filled with nothing but deadly predators! or given a deadly and painfully slow killing disease. It just makes me sick that these pathetic excuses for human beings get to sleep comfortably at night and are most likely under assumed identities so that they won’t be rightfully made to pay for what they did to that precious baby! I have 3 children and my youngest is 8 months old, and just to hear her cry for me breaks my heart. I can’t wrap my Brain around the screams of terror and pain that defenseless baby must of desperately made! I’m seriously traumatized by this whole story, It just won’t leave my mind. Why didn’t they just give her up to someone who woud have loved her?? Why did they do this to her?? why?? what the fuck were they thinking when they decided to rape the baby?? WHAT THE FUCK??? It brings me a bit of happiness knowing that someday while these fuckers are going about their daily routines in jail, there true identites will be exposed and Hell will be paid!! Rest in tota peace Bri, they were short an angel in heaven, that’s why you had to go. You WILL be avenged! 10 FOLD!!
I doubt the baby was baptised, so in fact it is going to hell.
Even If you’re joking, you’re sick. To say that a little 5 month old baby who went through hell isn’t finally resting in heaven, is sick. You’re not funny or cute. You need help. I can only hope you feel the pain this little girl felt.
Are the voices talking to you again Tagnuzlsx?
OMG how can you think that even writing that is appropriate! Do you not have any sense of right or wrong? Or have you been sucking on too many gas fumes?
Just a point of observation tagnuzlsx you are apparently not educated in religion either because most religions believe that all children are without sin and therefore, bound for heaven. Check your facts before you make yourself look ignorant.
There are no words that can even begin to describe what i would love to see happen to those sick ass disgusting waste of oxygen nutha efers. I swear if I was ever lucky enough to cross paths with those fuckers it would b sooooooo fucken with them.
I see you are trying to get “biblical”, well then asshole, you would know that a baby can not commit sin, so there fore, it has nothing to repent. Acts 2:38 says: And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Baptism is to repent your sins. That beautiful baby girl IS in heaven, no god of any religion wouldn’t deny a child into heaven. Next time, read your bible before you talk stupid.
Victoria I am just as mind blown over what exactly these kinds criminals are doing for punishment for their crimes.
just recently on Facebook I was directed to Raye Dawn Smiths aka Kelsy Briggs Mothers page (Kelsy Briggs http://kelsey-briggs.memory-of.com/About.aspx ) and just could believe that she herself was operating it from prison!! what hell is that?
So people like her can run a campaign like this http://www.thetruthaboutkelsey.com/ from their cell. it’s disgusting! they were convicted and deserve to rot in prison not be pampered and catered too. we need some prison reform and fast!
Wow I looked up those web sites and if you had no information on the case you would believe that the mom of poor little Kelsey was Donna Reed who did all she could for her child but due to the evil ex husband, grandmother, HHS, media, DA, they all conspired to charge her when all she wanted was to be a wonderful mother to her child..not a lot about the poor baby who was abused and assaulted and murdered, but isn’t that the way it always is?
me to ferrets, just went and checked it and it says she’s on line now!!!…WTF is that????? surely it’s not her per’se..is it?? totally gobsmacked if it is…
i hope all 3 of these low life pieces of shit rot in prison. i also hope that while in prison someone sticks something so far up their asses that it causes them to bleed. they are all a bunch of fucktards who make me sick!!!! And the worst one of all is the bitch, the “mother”, yeah, she’s a mother all right, a mother fucking cunt!!!
Please tear their azz’s open with something sharp and rusted till they burp metal.
The people who started that petition obviously have too much time on their hands.
Yeah, kinda like a troll who posts ridiculous and pointless remarks on a website hoping that people will think he’s serious and respond with angry, emotional replies.
Wait, that’s you Tagnuzlsx. Boy, it was pretty stupid to make that comment , wasn’t it? At least the people who created the petition have a good heart. You heart is probably black as the ace of spades.
you know what tagnuzlsx!?? FUCK YOU !!!!! SEE YOURE A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF RETARTED PEOPLE I MENTIONED THAT NEED TO BE PUT ON THEIR MISERY BECAUSE OF PEOPLE SO STUPID RETARTED IGNORANT THE EARTH IS HOW IT IS YEAH AND I BET YOUR ONE OF MANY BASTARD RETARDS THAT VOTED NO IN THIS CASE …… I CONDEMN YOU TO HELL RIGHT ALONG WITH THESE DUMB RETARDS HOW DARE SAYING “IT” IS GOING TO HELL REFERING HER AS A THING WHEN YOU ARE THE THING SINCE YOU DONT HAVE A HEART AND LET ME GIVE YOU SOME KNOWLEDGE PIECE OF SHIT BABIES AND KIDS ALL GO TO HEAVEN SINCE THEY ARE PURE & INNOCENT THEY ARE FREE OF SINS BAPTISM IS JUST TO GET THEM CLOSER TO GOD NOW INSTEAD OF TRYING TO LOOK COOL ANT TYPE SUM SENSELESS DUMB SHIT WHY DONT YOU GO TO CHURCH AND CONFESS ALL YOUR SINS SINCE YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT BEIGN SO RELIGIOUS……………… OH BUT YOURE STILL GOING TO HELL TOUGH
My point is perfectly valid. As other posters have said, putting a cage over a gravestone is a perfectly normal practice. So one wonders why these people are doing this when the perpetrators have been caught and given lengthly jail sentences
My guess is that these people have empty lives, and are involving themselves in someone else’s tragedy as an attempt of self-affirmation. It’s pathetic, creepy and parasitical.
I don’t think it’s fair that taxpayers money should be spent on this either, what the recession and all.
“Yeah, kinda like a troll who posts ridiculous and pointless remarks on a website hoping that people will think he’s serious and respond with angry, emotional replies.”
I was hoping for rational debate, but most people here only seem capable of “angry, emotional replies”. That’s not my fault.
It’s also not my fault that you have a narrow mind.
Please Tagnuzlx, depart some of your wisdom upon us lowly unlearned peasants and tell us what you would have us as society do with the bodies of murdered and unclaimed babies. Throw them in a landfill? In your twisted little world, what would you do? I guess that I am one of your “pathetic, creepy and parasitical” individuals as I tend to the graves of murdered and abandoned children at our cemetery, among other things. What do you do, Tagnuzlx, to try and make your part of the world a little bit better place? Hmmm? Do you volunteer to work with abused children? Do you volunteer and visit your local children’s hospital? Do you help victims of domestic violence break the cycle? Do you support your local food bank? Do you collect and distribute coats and blankets for the homeless? Support your local school district? What do you do?
Tagnuzlsx your synapses seems to fire differently from the rest of us so why don’t you write any of these three people, I’m sure they will enjoy you since you seem to have so very much in common.

are these addresses still correct?
It may be normal in your part of the world/universe… Did you just hit random letters to come up with that screen name? If so, you miiiiight be a troll.
wow< u know what tazmanian devil or whatever ur dam name is, If i were you Id shut the fuck up. your just as sick and twisted ass those 3 cunts.
To answer the question from a New Mexican who has seen the CAGE it is in fact a cage. I photograph plots for family members who are unable to visit and I have seen plenty of fences to keep the deer and wildlife out but this is a cage. This precious child was kept in a torturous prison in life. No matter what the “pathetic, creepy, and parasitical” reason that was insinuated by a posting, it is bringing awareness to the plight of abused children. Every person who visits that grave will share that experience with another person and that person with another. Maybe one day there will not be another Baby Brianna. . . impossible probably but what a wonderful world that would be. With every tragedy there needs to be some good that can come of it. The “pathetic, creepy, and parasitical” people are behind bars for a very long and well deserved time. shows the lack of knowledge of that person. If you can come up with one “rational debate” for why this poor child should have suffered so then maybe it is you that is looking for self affirmation.
In order to have a rational debate one must research the facts and use those facts to support your positon as opposed making “angry, emotional replies”. In no other cemetaries in New Mexico or anywhere else I have traveled, have I encountered a similiar cage. But anger does not help sign the petition so that others can share love and the story. So maybe the next family member who witnesses abuse will stand up and do something.
REMEMBER these family members did not claim this childs body the public did that. So why should they have a say about who visits this grave when they did nothing to help her in life. Sorry they have the misfortune of being related to these monsters but burying your head in the sand didn’t work the first time. Let people pay their respects.
*Standing Ovation* Brilliantly said xrondagailx. I’m not informed enough about this part of the case to have rebutted the comment as well as you did, and even if I was, I doubt I could have been as eloquent as you have been. Thanks for taking the time to say what you said.
In order to have a rational debate one must research the facts and use those facts to support your position as opposed making “angry, emotional replies”.
That deserves a marble plaque somewhere.
I completely agree. Wonderful way with words.
This whole thing makes me sick. Ever since I read it 5 days ago I can’t get a good night sleep. It is so horrific what these monsters did to this poor baby and now instead of giving these scumballs a life sentence in a torture chamber they move them to different states so their lives can be protected. There is so much wrong with that, that I can’t even speak. This baby did not deserve any of this and now the assholes who hurt her are living a happy careless life in prison while we pay with our tax dollars to ensure their safety. They can go fuck themselves for all I care and I hope that there is a hell and they will go to it and burn for eternity. I hope they get raped everyday for the rest of the life.
i say let them loose on the street and the first one to kill in the most painful way possible, gets a huge fat reward from the state. Would be cheaper than what they will cost us living in prison. First they kill their own flesh and blood now we get to pay to keep them alive??? And what about that Granmother? She is another peice of shit. Soul-less fucks. That is all they are lower than scum….I read about baby Brianna a few days ago and like someone else stated in their comment, I havent been able to sleep and drove home from work crying hysterically. We are Brianna’s family. We will give her the love she deserves. Her biological family can go rot. I hope Stephanie, her husband and brother are tortured with guilt. I hope they hang themselves. I hope they see Briannas beautiful face every single minute of every single day they are alive.
As long as these disgusting fucks are breathing justice has NOT been served. There is NO greater crime then physically abusing an infant to death. People like this are too sick to belong to society, to our species, they need to be taken OFF the planet, not a single penny of American tax dollars should house these criminals. Take ‘em out back, shoot ‘em and leave their corpses to rot. They deserve NO REGARD in the slightest. I am SICK just knowing these fuckers are breathing! I’m shocked a vigil ante group hasn’t taken them out yet, pay someone off in jail to beat them to death in the bathroom, if my state can handle Dahmer in this way (and he didn’t go after infants), you can do it too.
I totaly agree with u charlotte.
I too am sickened by this horror. I saw the video last night of that poor child who never had a chance and can’t get it out of my mind.
A beautiful innocent baby, just 6 months?? How could anyone hurt a child like that?
I HAD to find out that theses monsters got their just reward ( how could it EVER be just??). Hopefully a fellow inmate has killed them or better yet tortured them by now!
You have a wonderful plan – I am just hearing about this case & I nearly vomited after reading about it. I have 2 young beautiful little girls. Torture would be too nice for these scumbags. Our liberal F-ing society keeps allowing this crap to go on. Someone shoot the Defense Attorneys who take on these cases – FAIR TRIAL? Are you flipping kidding me? Did Brianna get a fair trial when her scumbag father & uncle were molesting her & abusing her? What ever happened to the days of hanging in the public streets? I am so happy to know my tax dollars are being spent on these 3 sick scumbags to sit in prison for the next generation. God rest Brianna’s poor little soul. God bless those who this story who has touched so deeply. I can not believe this ever happened… My heart is changed forever.
I raed Brianna’s story 4 days ago and i havent been able to sleep well. i get up at 3 in the morning and start crying and just wished i had the money to get the 3 of them out of jail bring them to my own house and torture them for 5 months and kill them in the same way that Brianna was killed. only if i had millions and millions. stephanie will be released first then steven and then Andrew and I will save every cent i have to go to new mexico and kill them myself. i will be old just like them when they are released so i wouldn’t care if i go to jail or die, as long as they go through the same pain that brianna did. I’m making a promise to myself and to every one on this site that i will organise to torture them and kill them. I will have Briannas name tattooed around my wrist to remember waht has to be done. This 3 fucken animals are being feed and showered every day, they are being looked after and protected by the guards so they would be very comfortable in there and that makes my blood boil. They should go through the same pain that Brianna did. ANY ONE WANTS TO HELP ME please let me know. AN EYE FOR AN EYE.
…they even have photos which is more than Briana had in her short life. I love Brinanna with all my heart; she made me a far better person from kowing her story and I dream of her often and wake to tears as well.
My baby is 16months old and hear Brinnas story just after she was born and I lokked at her and just sobbed and asked God how could anyone do something so dispicable to a angel like her named Brianna?
The only thing to stop me from joining you is my daughter will need me more than any other person on the planet. God forbide something happen to her my fury towards people like these three monsters will have no bounds and I promise you that.
I can’t even type when I think of her…it makes me that angry! sorry for my typo’s :-(
I’ll join you. It dont matter, by the time these fucks get out of jail, I’ll be old too.
are these mailing addresses for these 3 scumbags still correct?
I believe they are current..
I think I’m gonna write them some hate mail, So I guess we’ll see if they are or I’ll get a return to sender right?
geez, could you imagine if they actually wrote back?? I’d need cleansed with fire.
Dr. Smith? I have some grenades you could send along with your hate mail :) Just write “With Love, From Your Secret Hater.”
We need to find a way to contact another prisoner in the same facilities and snitch on the little fuckers. Prison justice for all of them! If you know another prisoner in one of those facilities contact us!
I agree with finding a way to let prisoners where all of them are know about what they did.why not. Unfortunately rape happens n violence in prisons everyday. Let it happen to who deserves it.u can find out prisoners names n write to them. N we r paying taxes for them to be protected. Ridiculous.Torture them every night!
I like you’re thinking. Google the prisons, maybe they have a list of inmates or use common names to see if you can get a hit on a name. I bet they’d love to hear what their “buddy” did.
I am in total shock and disgust. I needed to know that these scum bags were put away and ended up finding this site. My heart is aching for this baby girl and I just don’t understand how this kind of thing happens. I think back to that song where that little girl starts her song with “dear Mr. Jesus, I just had to write to you, something really scared me when I saw it on the news…” this tells me that stuff like this continues on so the message and public education on child abuse needs to take it up several notches.
PLEASE tell me that these pieces of shit have since been tortured to death in prison!!?? I have said before that I think that bitch should have all of teeth pulled out one by one (without pain killers of course), and those guys should have their dicks put in blenders on high speed. This makes me so sick. BURN IN HELL, PIGS!
I suggest we creat a civil arm group that will shoot down all these fuckers who does shit like this. Fuck prison, fuck their human rights. Why do they still need “human rights?” when they do something so inhuman to a little child? Prison? they still have “food prepared”, “no rent”, and no shit load of bills..
Man.. they should put a law that if they kill or caused someone’s death intentionally then they should be out to death cruelly.
FUCK THEM!! I hate and will have no regrets in tearing those fuckers face off or hurt them slowly and painfully till they die. Like SAW stuff. That will do!!!!! However,no KEYS!!!
Ooooh SAW stuff. That’s gorey, I like it! Like that machine “The Wrath” in the 3rd movie. Sounds like a plan!
That is what they exactly deserve!!!! Anyone about how they are doing in prison? I wish they would let all three of them in the “yard ” of a prison that only houses prisoners who will never see freedom. LET THEM SHANK AWAY!!!
I am a mom of 5 and found out about this a few weeks ago… I am a Christian and I pray… But in all my life I’ve never prayed and talked to god as much as I have since I found out about this… After I yelled at God and asked him where he was while Brianna was being tortured, I then had to resort my prayers to asking him to forgive me for the thoughts I have towards the unhumane things that did that to her… I have had to beg sometimes for him to forgive my very non Christian thoughts and wishes… I also understand the petition for the cage which I signed… But I want to know a fw things… Where is the petition to sign to revoke the rights of murderers? Wheres the petition to revoke the protection of the criminals who do these heinous crimes paid for by taxpayers? Where’s the petition to revoke warm meals, TV, internet access and clean clothes for these things? I want to sign those petitions! I want to sign a petition to help purchase an island and drop these things off, naked, with no food, no shelter no guards, no nothing… Just each other… Let them kill each other for food and clothing… Where’s that petition? We need to stop worrying about writing to these F@**s and find someone who knows an inmate in the facility they are in and have them physically go there and tell an inmate who’s in prison with them… Letters don’t ever make it, I’m sure for “Their protection” But if a visitor of another inmate went and spilled it, oops… There’s only so many prison’s they can be moved to… One more thing… Does ANYONE know how they’r doing? The last update on any of them I found was that they guys were being moved (for their protection) and the mom made friends in prison… This to me is not justice… I am right there with all of you about how my heart will NEVER be the same… I have 1 boy, 3 girls and 1 on it’s way… I have cried soo many tears at the thougt of her cries and no one to comfort or protect her… My youngest had shots and if her screams of terror and pain weren’t enough, I thought of Briana and cried even harder… I’m sure the nurse thought I was a freak, but I just held my baby soooo tight and comforted her and asked God to send some of that huggin and kissing and comforting Brianna’s way… I will have to again Pray but I really hope God show’s no mercy on them… I hope God turns his back on them… I hope He lets them be… After all He is the one who gave us Freedom of Choice right? Well I’m sure it’s the free choice of many to be left alone with these “things”… God forgive me for my slanderous tongue and evil thoughts, even though I know I will not change them… Please forgive me for all the thoughts to come… Rest in Peace Brianna now that you finally have some! And know that every hug, kiss and comfort I give to my kids I want you to feel too!
If these so called men would have been incarcerated in the New Mexico State Pen in 1980 in the PC unit instead of today they would have known what the baby had gone through-when the inmates rioted and broke into the PC units and killed approximately 33 inmates they had access to very nasty items such as blowtorches, axes, and other items. The books describing the riot will give you nightmares-but I believe these 3 deserve the same treatment-and there are more than likely a number of inmates who would gladly inflict it on them
I am trying really hard to find out if these things are having a “good” time in their prison’s… Where are the law bending police and counselors and Po’s? This would be the case to bend on and post stuff anonymously online so we can have the gratification of knowing what’s happening to these…. things during their stay!
Hopefully they are being abused and mistreated like they did their child.
All that comforts me is that the devil is waiting to torture and devour them while they scream and beg for the mercy they will never get.
PLEASE! PLEASE Let me know if these addresses are current. I read one or two pieces of sh!t were re-located to Oregon.. I intend to write the nastiest letters, once a week for the rest of their prison terms! And YES if anyone knows of inmates in their prisons, who ARE NOT CHILD ABUSERS. Please advise!
Have you written any letters yet? Did you get them sent back? What happened?
I can’t seem to find out what has happened to Andy? Retrial or has he been let go???
Go back re-read the update and you’ll see his conviction was reinstated by the New Mexico Supreme Court at the same time as Brian Lopez’ was. You must have missed it the first time around.
They’re not good enough to deserve the death penalty. Better something, long, slow, and horribly painful. This crime is the absolute worst kind of evil a person could do upon another. I never cried so hard, so immediately over a story in my life.
Why don’t more people support Planned Parenthood (the lesser evil), open their homes to foster kids, and adopt more kids to try to keep such evil from happening?
Planned Parenthood the “lesser evil”??????? ummmmmmmm no. Murder is never the option. Adoption is a much better option. Sorry but I could list so many cases where PP have outright brkel laws. Both written and moral.
I think the original author was promoting Planned Parenthood’s Abortion services, but the primary business PP is involved in is in the distribution of contraception and the prevention of disease. 90% of their offerings are pre-pregnancy related services.
I think Abortion is a horrible, nasty thing that’s a poor substitute for a condom, IUD, or birth control pill, but I don’t think it’s murder under the law or current circumstances. From a religious standpoint, until the fetus can be felt moving (the quickening), abortion was religiously conscionable.
Murder or suicide? I had an ectopic pregnancy at an age when most women can’t get pregnant, for reasons I won’t go into right now so don’t ask. It was me or a fetus that wasn’t truly viable. I was hemorrhaging. Am I selfish person who is going to hell? Did I truly have another choice? What if abortion was illegal at the time?
I think abortion should always remain legal, but the reasons for allowing it should be greatly limited. My mother used to work with a woman who would have two or three abortions a year. That was her usual birth control. I wanted to stab her with her letter opener when I found out. Luckily, if you have too many abortions (what a horrible thought!) you can become sterile.
There are certain instances where abortion is the only choice. I would hate to see a time when that choice is taken away. Women would still have abortions, as they have for centuries, but the conditions would be far worse. There is a middle ground.
I agree with the Adoption bit……otherwise I wouldn’t be here, although as I found out later, she wasn’t into abortions just having kids then giving them up, there’s 4 of us in total….and she was catholic to boot……go figure….no abortion, but ok to go fuck anything that walked basically…oh that sounds bad about my birth mother dont it…..like I care…..sorry personal choice/story behind all that……
i’m pro choice all the way. i know its mean, but i would rather an abortion be performed than a kid beaten, neglected or murdered cuz their birth ‘parents’ caved to the pressure of having them due to religion, parents, etc. cuz in the end, who is the one with the kid? the parent who didnt want it/couldnt afford it, not tehe “you’re going to hell for murder” jackass who couldnt care less about the kid later in life. yeah, there is adoption, but how many kids get adopted, and how many are stuck in foster care until they get booted out at 18? honestly, be real. in the end it comes down to money and personal choices. the only people IMHO, who have the right to bitch, are the ones who have a crapload of foster kids that they have adopted (and not for monetary gain) because they help out when its tough, not like other picketers who yell and bitch and then leave, feeling accomplished that they ‘saved’ a life. plz dont think bad of me, but i have a question for all those pro-life ppl…………. would little brianna lopez have been better off aborted or cruelly murdered at hands of family? (and no, adoption isnt allowed in this question cuz obviously she wasnt adopted)
Just so you all know the “father” and “uncle” have been moved to out of state prisons because of their constant assaults and they have been put in protective custody. The “mother” has had the crap beaten out of her several times and is in the Grant’s Women’s Prison in New Mexico and is now in protective custody.
Just what I wanted to hear, that other inmates are making their lives hell. Even in protective custody someone can get to them-a truly hoped for event. I actually hope the other inmates don’t kill them anytime soon-just make their lives a living hell for a long long time
God bless those other inmates! It’s not going to matter where they are moved to, there will be inmates that do not stand for shit like this, as well as the deputies who have access to them. Their beatings will continue–I hope they are all miserable!
give all those inmates a giant candy bar in their stocking, and whichever one sends her to the infirmary gets a wal mart gift card!!!!!!!!!!
Hell yeah, and whoever kills them gets $200 from me on their books!
What exactly protected custody entails? I can’t believe we pay with our taxes to protect these scumbags. Simply revolting n disgusting. I guess justice might never happen.so so so upseting.
Where did you hear this?! Is it true?! Oh God, please let it be? But before I get happy, please tellme its really really true?! Please respond ASAP!!
Is this really true? How do you know?! Please please, dear God, please let this be true??!!! NOTHING would make me happier than if this was true? Please tell me how you found this out?!!!!
I am curious…..does anyone know what happen to Andy Walters–I looked him up at NM Corrections.com and he is not listed. He wasnt released was he? I wanted to sent them all lovely little birthday cards and possibly some holiday cards–just for a reminder of what it is/was that they all did.
I see now! Thanks Rebeka!
as a proud supporter of b.a.c.a.{bikers against child abuse} i am fuckin thrilled they r catchin shit in those walls.here in austin tx we DO have the death penalty and we use it,these cowards would have been a shoe in for it. and baby brianna i could just see u up there with ur god on thanksgiving day watchin football and just slingin whipped cream around every where and u and god laughin it up and just have a really cool time,lol. u r a little ray of sun shine and always will be.
Hear hear Bo!

i hope these 3 r getiing butt fucked with a hot branding iron and rusty barbed wire for christmas
Nicely said.
does anyone know what happened to baby brianna’s brother? i think these people should be killed. they just found a baby in a box in new mexico, everytime a baby is abused or killed i think of this poor baby.
I as many of you, read this story 2 days ago, and am haunted by contiuously by thoughts of the horrific, unimaginable, evil things these monsters did to this innocent baby girl. I am truly changed forever. My heart is just absolutely broken imagining her pain. I cant help constantly cringing, hysterically crying, and holding my 20 month old son so tightly to make sure he knows he is loved. I just keep asking myself why?? Why did they just discard her, and deem her life so unworthy? And why could they never, not for one second, stop and consider her little life? She is the first thought I have when i wake up in the morning, the last when i go to bed, and always on my mind. Im just so filled with rage, and want to know where the fuckin pigs are. Fuck the justice system, PLEASE let all 3 of these worthless animals out. Theres a whole world waitin for em. I wont be greedy, we can all take a little piece. Rest in Peace sweet Brianna, you will forever be in my thoughts and prayers. And i will continue the fight to free you, you will be caged, NO MORE. All of my love precious baby girl.
Sorry I am belated to respond to Brianna’s death,all 3 of them needs to be on death row for 1 minute and then put to sleep
or put close enought that the inmates would do her justice,
I have no dought that our LORD Jesus has her in his arms,
How can some one say family,these people were animals,And the thought of not letting the people show respect to Brianna is so not right,
You know the abuse and murder of this child while downright vile and horrific spurs me to take a step back and look at our Society as a whole. Look, as a father I am disgusted much like anyone out there but the fact is that we as a society are manufacturing monsters like Andrew Walters wholesale. With our vibrant, billion dollar a year pornographic industry we have promoted sexual deviance and depravity to the level that now manifests itself in the rape of infants. We condone selfish, self centered behavior that now contaminates natural maternal love leading mothers to put their needs and desires above their babies. We also promote the mindset that to show mercy and love is weak so these days we wander around with merciless scum like those two who assaulted Briana. Bottomline what we promote as a society has morphed many of our young men and women into monsters in our midst. We don’t condone good samaritan behavior anymore, “its not my business” is the rule of the day so why should anyone else who knew better take the time to reach out causing obvious disruption to their perfectly organized daily life/rhythm to do it. Briana was an American child, that means she was the child of every American adult now which one of you so passionate about her death would have been the good Samaritan and disrupted your tightly organized lives and career journey for one kid? The fact is there are many like Briana out there some of them right next door to you but then again when do a lot of us Americans slow down enough to know who our next door neighbours are and what they’re going through? Who cares right? Few months ago we had a girl raped in public in VA while the other kids and young adults watched and not one had the courage or independence to step up. Which one of them reached out, but if she had had her brains bashed out dead we’d have covered her grave in flowers…why not they’re less disruptive to our lives, safety and comfort than standing up for her before she would have been murdered. So are your fiery, emotional comments which would be best translated to volunteering and helping that crack addict mom nix her habit and make a better life for her kid. Translate your anger by volunteering at a local shelter to heal our Society, these crimes are manifestations of a fundamental sociological decay and decline in basic human morals and values in our society so remember that when you blow hot about what to do with Andrew Walter and co you’re targeting the symptoms and not the ailment of what led to Briana’s death.
This is one of the worst & saddest cases of child abuse, I can’t believe how anybody could do this in the 1st place & to their own baby! I really hope they are tortured in jail, I hope somebody makes them suffer the way same way their precious child did. How could anybody just sit there & watch this poor little baby suffer this way and not do something about it!
This is the most heartbreaking thing I have EVER heard in my life, I cannot stop thinking about this poor little girl. If her family didn’t want her why couldn’t they just give her up for adoption? And I wonder, how come no one knew, I read that she had injuries that went back months and months, I also read she was born a preemie, she must have had doctor’s visits, check-ups, anything, how didn’t anyone notice her injuries?!?! My daughter is 5 months old and I after reading this I held her so tight for hours and hours while sobbing. How could ANYONE look at the face of a beautiful baby and hurt them. In her short little life she must have smiled at her family, cooed to them, needed them, how could they hurt her, they were the only family she knew, she must have loved them and just couldnt understand why they kept causing her pain. When i think about the fear she must have felt when they were throwing her in the air, the screams she must have made while they bit her…I cry just thinking about it. I hope they all die. The whole entire family. SICK PRICKS!
I cannot believe and fail 2 understand how the hell anyone can do this to a baby their baby their own flesh and blood HOW? Those pigs deserve to die in the most horrific way possible anything less just won’t cut it. I hope they r getting raped left ,right and centre ,smashed,bashed and burnt and it still doesn’t take the pain away .This baby was just so helpless in their arms and i hope these fucking pigs are gettinag a taste of thir own medicine .
well i met stephanie in prison when we worked in the kitchen she introduced herself to me at the time i didnt know whAT SHE was in there for but soon found out . and everytime i saw her i wanted to bash her head in with one of the pots.in grants she is treated like a princess like all the other killers there they get the best jobs as well as the girls who want to date them…i was there cause mdc had no room for me and i was there on misderminor charges only..not even a felony on record..i was with the killers..and i shouldnt of been there…that womens prisons is not like what u see on tv.its like a getaway its not proper punishment.they have it easier in there than out here…
I was new to this story as of today when it was posted on FB.
This has really affected me, I’ve been crying so hard for Briana!
She couldn’t say ouch. She couldn’t say stop it. She couldn’t run. She was in the hand of those with a bond that is created at birth whom she felt love just to be treated like this. I can’t sleep and I’m not sure how long this will be etched in my mind. Most likely forever.
I know she’s with God and his his hands and he’s holding her and taking good care of her. I’ve prayed and asked my Mom to go hold her too. Give her love and give her joy. Something she was never able to know. Something she deserves and never got.
I am tormented by this and I wish I could meet these three people. I believe I am very capable in a situation like this. They need to feel pain, be beat up, raped, bitten and just brutalized daily so they can feel the daily pain they brought to her. How could her own flesh and blood do that. She was just a baby. And to raper her?! I want to hurt these people. I want them to be hurt wherever they are. Life in prison is too good for them.
Why should our tax dollars go for them to live life at all? It shouldn’t and from what I read there are many people who felt the same.
I usually don’t post on things, but I felt a connection with everyone worldwide for Briana and our hearts are all with her and we all wish we could hold her and make her safe and tell her it’s ok. I know I wish I could now and always. I felt I could get on here and try to feel better and stop crying by linking myself with everyone else. I was happy to see many people feel the same as me.
If there is anyone out there who can get the word to those in the system about these people, do so. Make them pay, make them hurt, make them suffer. They deserve nothing better.
Little Briana, may you rest in peace! May the good Lord hold you and keep you forever, I know He is. I’m so sorry for your pain that you should have never ever endured. I’m so sorry! I will alway pray for your justice and your peace.
Thanks for listening out there and being there!
America wake up and change these laws! Start protecting our children and our people! No excuses on our money anymore. If you want them in jail then you pay for it. I sure don’t want to pay for them to have life.
I have read the story on baby P and little brianna. I am a mother of one. Nothing angers me when an adult takes advantage on child. We as parents need to protect our offspring. I have read that babies brianna mom is a living a great life in jail. Send these people to prisons were within the walls take care of child abusers. Have them get a sense of torture that they put on these children. I have often reminded my son, that if anyone touches him, his mother can turn into a mad women. Something he will never have to see. People learn the laws and be proactive. Also break that chain of abuse and educate yourself! REMEMBER EVERYTHING IS PAID IN THIS LIFETIME!!!!!
My, Stephanie Lopez thinks she’s quite the hardass, doesn’t she. The mean eyes, the flat affect, the squint. A pistol packin mamma. Real impressive. I guess it’s easy to act tough when your victim is 5 months old. Hey Steph, why not pull some of that shit on me? Go on, I mean it. You probably outweigh me by quite a bit, but I’ve got 20 years or so on you so it should even out. Anyway, I’m willing to take my chances. C’mon Stephie, time for some fun, Let’s see how tough you really are.
And what the fuck is wrong with that she male in the third picture? He looks like fuckin Mr. Potatohead.
No words really to describe what happend. I know everyone knows what happend to baby brianna i couldnt stop crying when i heard what happend to this inocent baby. How could any one in there right mind do this. Where they on drugs or something. Those idiots. I have the most hate for the mother because she was suppose to be her protector and she was right along doing the crime. Well the whole fucken family didnt care for her. That family must be fucked up cause no one had morals or a conciance to help the baby
FUCKEN RETARTED COWARDS!!! i swear man is retards like these that commit unimaginable atrocities that to us people with common sense affect the most cause like i said they are unimaginable and we never think they could happen AND LIKE ALL OF YOU GUYS HERE WITH COMMON SENSE I ALSO CRIED MY LUNGS OUT AND WAS HUNTED BY THIS STORY FOR 2 WEEKS STRAIGHT KISSIN MY BABY DAUGHTER SO MUCH SOMETIMES FANTACISING THAT SHE WAS BRIANNA SO SHE WOUL’VE SHARED A LITTLE LOVE OF ALL THE MUCH LOVE I GIVE MY NOW 15 MONTH OLD BABY GIRL by the time that fat retarted bitch gets out ill be 41 and she will get hers I SWEAR TO GOD!!!!
