From NBC:

Man charged with killing boy, 10, who reportedly came out as gay
Anthony Avalos died last week after a 911 call from his home. His mom’s boyfriend was arrested, and some suspect that homophobia played a part in Anthony’s death.

That’s pretty sad and tragic.

A man described as a member of a violent gang was arrested Wednesday and charged with murder in the death of a 10-year-old boy in Southern California, officials said. The boy, Anthony Avalos, had recently come out as gay, a county official said, and some suspect that homophobia played a role in his death.

Anthony Avalos was taken to a hospital on June 20 after his mother, Heather Barron, called 911 to report that he had been injured in a fall, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. He was not breathing and unresponsive when emergency workers found him in his Lancaster home, and he died the next day.

Violent gang in Southern California you say?

His body showed signs of physical abuse and malnutrition, child welfare workers said, and his death was classified as suspicious.

So there is physical evidence of chronic abuse.

At a news conference on Wednesday, Sheriff Jim McDonnell said Barron’s boyfriend, Kareem Leiva, 32, had been arrested on murder charges and was being held on $2 million bail. McDonnell said that while being interviewed, “Leiva made statements that led detectives to arrest him for the murder of Anthony Avalos.”

Before Leiva’s arrest, Brandon Nichols, deputy director of the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, told The Los Angeles Times that Anthony had “said he liked boys” in the weeks prior to his death. The department confirmed this detail to NBC Los Angeles but declined to provide additional details.

McDonnell declined to discuss a potential motive but he did tell reporters that homophobia “has not come up in our investigation as a motivation at this time.”

So the Sheriff is not suspicious of homophobia as a motive but NBC ran with that in the headline.

However, Avalos’ uncle David Barron, the brother of Heather Barron and a co-worker of Leiva’s, told NBC News that Leiva has a history of homophobia. He recalled a number of times when Leiva said he was “uncomfortable just being around” gay men.

So they are going to beat the homophobia horse to death.

Caseworkers reportedly documented that Leiva was a member of MS-13, the criminal gang frequently mentioned by President Donald Trump during his immigration speeches. At least one branch of the gang, located in El Salvador, reportedly kills members found to be gay.

MS-13?  Really?  The gang that MSNBC has been downplaying?  The gang that is just a Trump scare tactic?  Can’t be.

Did I read that right?  MS-13 targets and kills gays?  But the Liberals say it’s nothing to worry about.  I guess hyper-violent El Salvadorian machismo is going to be treated like radical Islam – the Left is going to ignore its murderous anti-gay behavior because diversity.

I wonder what the boyfriend’s legal status isBefore his death, Anthony had suffered years of physical, sexual and emotional abuse at the hands of family members, according to the Department of Children and Family Services. Caseworkers responded to 12 different complaints between February 2013 and April 2016, including sexual abuse by a grandparent when Anthony was 4, and general neglect.

Before his death, Anthony had suffered years of physical, sexual and emotional abuse at the hands of family members, according to the Department of Children and Family Services. Caseworkers responded to 12 different complaints between February 2013 and April 2016, including sexual abuse by a grandparent when Anthony was 4, and general neglect.

“In private interviews, Anthony disclosed details consistent with media reports that he was beaten, locked up, and not fed,” Bobby Cagle, the director of the department, wrote in a statement shared with NBC News.

There is the big enchilada ladies and gentlemen.

Another case where a bunch of stupid, incompetent, inept, ham-fisted, bumble-fucking, government employees totally failed in their singular duty to protect children.

Department of Children and Family Services has one job: protect children.  A dozen cases of physical and sexual abuse, physical evidence of chronic abuse and neglect, why was the boy still with his mom in that abusive household?

Stupid, incompetent, inept, ham-fisted, bumble-fuckery by government employees.

Karla Avalos, one of the boy’s aunts, expressed frustration that Anthony and the other children were ever permitted to return to the home after being removed.

“I’m mad, because there was multiple reports done,” Karla Avalos told NBC News. “There were phone calls, and nobody did anything. I don’t know why they thought that was OK for them to go back with their mother.”

“What is wrong with the system?” she asked.

Stupid, incompetent, inept, ham-fisted, bumble-fuckery by government employees.

No shit shit as a right to be mad.

Anthony Avalos’ death bears a striking resemblance to a 2013 case in neighboring Palmdale, less than 10 minutes from Lancaster.

Eight-year-old Gabriel Fernandez died in May 2013 after being routinely beaten and starved by his mother and her boyfriend. Prosecutors said Gabriel was systematically abused because his mother’s boyfriend thought the boy was gay. Like Anthony, Gabriel was on the radar of the Department of Children and Family Services, though he was never removed from his home.

Los Angeles County Supervisor Sheila Kuehl told The Los Angeles Times that the possibility that both Anthony and Gabriel were targeted for being gay was particularly heartbreaking.

“I don’t think it’s a coincidence,” Kuehl told the paper. “I know that young people in my community every day find themselves at risk of violence.”

Better question: why is nobody asking about the stupid, incompetent, inept, ham-fisted, bumble-fucking, government employees who totally failed to protect that child?

That’s right, NBC is a Left leaning media group.  They would never commit the blaspheme of questioning the competence of a bunch of bumble-fucking government buffoons.

Lorri Jean, CEO of the Los Angeles LGBT Center, said her organization has been warning the county about the “unique problems that LGBT kids face.”

There is the identity politics, right on cue.  How about “it’s a problem when we get multiple reports of abuse and DCFS responds by jamming both thumbs up its ass.”

“This was a sad and tragic murder, but the tragic truth is that it was predictable,” Jean told NBC News. “If nothing is done, it won’t be the last.”

This was totally predictable after 12 other reports of abuse.  What did DCFS do?  Drop the fucking ball.

This is what is so God damned infuriating about this.

The media and social media is focused on the fact that a boy was beaten to death for being gay.

It is an LGBT victicrat wet dream.

You know what would make a more accurate headline?

Department of Child and Family Services fail to prevent MS-13 gang member from beating 10 year old to death after 12 previous reported incidents of abuse

You know why you’ll never see that headline?  Because the media and LGBT groups who lean Left must protect stupid, incompetent, inept, ham-fisted, bumble-fucking, government employees at all costs.

Rather than protect children, we’re going to protect useless fucking people and their taxpayer funded salaries and pensions.

Dead kids in Parkland.  Dead kids in Southern California.   Stupid, incompetent, inept, ham-fisted, bumble-fucking, government employees failed to prevent the obvious and inevitable.  Nobody at these agencies gets fired.

You know what that leads to, right?

More dead kids.
