According to court records from the Magistrate court in Dona Ana County, here are the events that led up to the murder of 5-month old Brianna Lopez.
Wednesday, July 24, 2002 --
- Thursday night, July 18th, at 6 p.m., Andy Walters stopped to buy a case of beer, and headed home to 5243 Comanche Trail in Las Cruces.
- Three people-- Walters, 21, Stephanie Lopez, 19, and her twin brother Steven Lopez, 19, drink through the evening.
- Stephanie went to bed after about three beers. According to court documents, Andy Walters and Steven Lopez admitted to playing with Stephanie and Walters's 5-month old daughter, Brianna.
- Police records show that Walters and Lopez threw the child into the air, causing her to hit her head on the ceiling 3 times, then dropped her twice on the floor.
- Andy Walters told investigators that Brianna was conscious and crying.
- At around 12:30 a.m., Friday morning, Andy Walters fell asleep not knowing where Brianna was.

Good morning neighbor, see my post 60.

During his interview with Sheriff's Deputies, Steven Lopez admitted to having
sex with Brianna Lopez.
Here must be one reason why police commit suicide at such high rates.
I can hardly imagine restraining myself from taking justice into my own hands
if a suspect calmly admitted to doing this.

While I think you are trying to hijack this thread, and also though I doubt you really espouse the ideas you are sharing, I have to essentially agree with your sentiment. This is a monstrous crime but you don't see anyone blaming alcohol for it, like you would see if these monsters had been snorting coke or smoking grass.
However, I cringe when I see people on threads say "Well, heroin is the reason that guy cut those people's heads off." Anyone who says "such and such drug made that person kill or whatever" is minimizing the evil of the criminal in an attempt to advance their agenda - just as you have done, though I suspect your agenda is not the reenactment of alcohol prohibition.
Booze was not responsible for this crime - the evil of the perpertrators was. While I do not think you are foolish or a jerk as others have said, you should use more tact as you advance your agenda, whatever it is.

Well, I know of a case in either Albuquerque or S. F. (can't recall which) where a 17-year old baby-killer was sentenced, as a juvenile, to probation. The claim was, as the mother's boyfriend, "he was put into a situation he wasn't mature enough to deal with" because he often baby-sat for the child.
I began baby-sitting at age 12.

The Scum of the Earth
All too frequently we wake up to the morning news shows to find that another innocent child has been abducted by some depraved unspeakably evil monster who usually ends up raping and killing them.
Can you imagine the horror and the unbelievable pain that a five year old girl would suffer being raped by a grown man? Stop and think about the unthinkable agony these innocent little bodies are put through before death mercifully takes them out of this nightmare.
What kind of person could do this? What kind of perverted bucket of slop could bring themselves to visit such pain and degradation on innocent children? Ill tell you who. Someone whos completely sold out to the devil. Someone who is wicked beyond description and in many cases, people who have been let to slip through societys justice with minor jail terms, probation and other meaningless slaps on the wrist, becoming bolder and bolder until they finally become so calloused that they can mutilate and murder innocence and walk away to do it again and again until they are finally caught.
Where do these people come from and why are they let go until they ruin a familys life? The reason in my estimation is that our politically correct society is so concerned about the rights of perverts that they overlook the obvious fact that they are loose cannons, wanton predators who need to be taken off the streets no matter what it takes.
What about the rights of our children? Dont they have a right to play in their own front yards without fear of being kidnapped, tortured, raped and murdered by these heartless predators? Dont they deserve justice for having their lives cut short and dying a death so horrible that we cant even imagine it?
Its maddening to me to think that judges in California are worried about having Under God in our Pledge of Allegiance and of all things, the rights of Al Qaida murderers, while our streets are being roamed by the worst kind of depraved pigs.
A child molester is not going to stop, they will keep on and on until somebody finally pulls the plug on them.
I am asking every decent American who loves your children and grandchildren to stand up and be counted on this issue. Let your elected officials know how you feel about these people and demand that something be done about it.
In a lot of cases we know who they are, theyve molested children before and we refuse to do anything with them.
These people deserve no consideration, they are time bombs waiting to explode and should be closely watched from the earliest offense. They should be publicly identified and the neighborhoods they live in should be officially notified that a known child molester is living among them.
They should have to wear tracking devices and if they are caught in the proximity of a school yard or kindergarten they should be hauled off to jail.
I know that some of these things are already in effect in a limited way but what Im calling for is a national registry of known child molesters and their addresses. I know the A.C.L.U. would have a conniption fit but who gives a damn. Who is the A.C.L.U. compared to the safety of our children?
I believe that a mandatory death penalty should be given to anyone who kidnaps, rapes or kills a child. And if youre one of the people who think that Im being too harsh try to imagine the last several hours of the little Runnion girls life, her little body being violated by a grown man. Well never know what he did to her. Well never know the absolute horror and excruciating pain this precious little one suffered at the hands of this sick slob.
I say catch him, try him and burn him, I dont care how insane his lawyers claim he is he doesnt deserve to live anymore.
Child molestation should be a federal crime, giving these pus balls no place to hide.
These little ones cant defend themselves, it is up to us to do something about it.
Keep a close watch on your children when youre in public. Hold the hands of the little ones and dont let even the older ones get out of your eyesight.
These people are prowling and watching for an unguarded moment when they can grab another innocent child.
Lets put a stop to it.
What do you think?
God Bless America

I hope these people are executed. This story should be shown to every person who argues against the death penalty, imo.

During his interview with Sheriff's Deputies, Steven Lopez admitted to having sex with Brianna Lopez.Shouldn't that read During his interview with Sheriff's Deputies, Steven admitted to raping Brianna? To have sex with someone don't you need a willing partner?

****Sorry, but this occured in New Mexico where we don't have a death penalty worth a damn...****
Can you explain, please? You do or DON'T have the death penalty in New Mexico? And if you do, what are the parameters under which the death penalty can be administered? Do you currently have any on death row? Do you know what the average time a killer sits on death row?
Sorry for all the questions.....I think I am anxious that these sub-humans die, sooner rather than later.

I'm not sure what 'hard labor' I would think appropriate for these maggots. Suggestions?

The parameters are not entirely clear to me, but are apparently vague enough that prosecutors don't try to get the death penalty for fear of blowing the case. We have folks on death row, but have only had one execution since 1976 (I think) and that was a child rapist/murderer who practically had to beg for it to be done. Not only that but the lawyers and liberals drag out every legal and BS excuse in these cases.

Working in labor camps a la Siberia or something like that and being only fed bread and water

****No "society" can claim me. I don't run with the herd.****
Not to be abusive or attempting to insult, but the Uni-bomber probably felt the same. If you live amongst us, you are a member of society, like it or not.
You are a member of the human race. As such, certain behaviors and attitudes are deemed unacceptable and penalties and consequences ensue. This isn't about herd mentality. It is about eliminating those who threaten the existence of others. No?
