I'm sure I read the parents and uncle died and baby was kidnapped.
Every article I've read said they all survived. One was kept in the hospital for a very short time and the other two longer but the only one who died was the baby.
 
It crossed my mind that maybe mother and uncle were involved with each other and hubby found out about it. Since the dad was treated and released, it is possible he found out his brother was the bio dad, shot them, then killed and dumped the baby. Maybe shot himself then lied to police, thinking the other two would die so they couldn't name him? :shrug::bigtears:
 
More information on the case...

Killing of North Long Beach infant Eliza Delacruz called ‘horrifying,’ as $25,000 reward is approved

The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors is offering a $25,000 reward for information leading to the conviction of whomever is responsible for kidnapping and killing 3-week-old Eliza Delacruz after shooting three of her family members in a North Long Beach home.

Supervisor Don Knabe, whose district includes Long Beach, asked for and received the board’s approval to offer the reward during a Tuesday morning meeting that took place three days after the infant was snatched from her home.

The amount is higher than the standard $10,000 because this particular case is so heinous, Knabe said.

“This thing is so horrifying. I can’t imagine a 3-week-old baby being treated like this and murdered in cold blood,” he said in an interview before the meeting.

Knabe said it’s standard practice to consult with police departments before putting the county’s money on the line because law enforcement agencies usually opt against a reward if detectives have an inside track on the case.

Long Beach police officials, however, have emphasized that the public’s assistance will be crucial to solving this case. Police Chief Robert Luna implored witnesses to come forward during a Monday afternoon press conference.

By Tuesday afternoon, Sgt. Megan Zabel said the department would refrain from saying whether the offer of a reward has led to new information. Police don’t want potential witnesses to assume that any information they may be able to provide has already been delivered by another source.

“They may have that information that we need to help put that puzzle together,” she said. “Any little tidbit helps.”

The series of weekend crimes that culminated in baby Eliza’s death began Saturday evening. Long Beach police responded to a report of a shooting that came in shortly before 6 p.m. in the first block of West 51st Street west of Long Beach Boulevard. Police there found three people, Eliza’s parents and uncle, suffering from gunshot wounds and learned the infant had been kidnapped.

Police quickly turned to the public for help in finding the 10-pound baby, but the search ended in tragedy on Sunday when Eliza’s body was found in a trash bin behind a San Diego County strip mall.

At Tuesday’s Board of Supervisors meeting, Knabe provided new details of the crime that had not previously been released by Long Beach police.

“The father of 3-week-old Eliza Delacruz had just arrived home from work,” Knabe said. “He sat down on the edge of his bed and watched his girlfriend feed their newborn baby. Without warning, a male suspect entered the room and started shooting.”

Long Beach police officials, however, said the department will be very cautious in releasing information. Police have not extensively revealed details of their investigation.

“We would like to remind everyone that we must investigate this case — as all cases — with the end in mind, meaning we want to make an arrest that results in a successful criminal filing and conviction. By releasing specific details of the case prematurely, we could be influencing future statements of potential witnesses,” reads a department statement issued Tuesday afternoon.

Eliza’s father has been released from medical care, but her mother and uncle are still in a hospital, Zabel said. Police have not identified any of the victims. Investigators have sought to obtain information from Eliza’s family members, but their medical conditions have added an additional challenge to the case.

“We’re not going to delve into the details of that. What you still have to remember is we have two people in the hospital who are main witnesses. Not only are they victims, but they are main witnesses,” Zabel said. “It’s tough when you have people laying in hospital beds.”

Despite such challenges, police may be able to release a sketch of the suspect by week’s end if witnesses provide enough quality information, Zabel said. The suspect has thus far only been described as a dark-complected man, and police have not publicly named any suspects or discussed potential motives for the crime.

The Delacruz case was not the only crime for which supervisors posted a reward Tuesday. The board also authorized a $10,000 reward for information that may help Los Angeles County sheriff’s detectives solve the Christmas Eve, 2013 killing of Charles Dejon Finch in Lynwood and extended another $10,000 reward for information related to the Nov, 24, 2010, shooting death of Daniel Dotson in Palmdale.

Los Angeles County officials frequently issue rewards to help investigators solve murders and other crimes. The county has an online listing of nearly two dozen outstanding reward offers that does not yet include the Delacruz case.

A county spokesman did not have information available Tuesday showing how frequently rewards lead to convictions, but a Los Angeles News Group review of more than 370 cases in which rewards were offered between January 2008 and April 2013 found that only 15 of those cases resulted in a payout to people who helped prosecutors win convictions.

That said, county supervisors did vote to pay a reward on Tuesday. A person who helped authorities capture escaped jail inmate Christopher Lee Brown, who slipped out of custody in March of last year, earned a $20,000 payment.

Anyone with information about the Delacruz case was urged to call Long Beach homicide detectives Donald Goodman and Mark Mattia at 562-570-7244. Anonymous tips can be provided by calling Crime Stoppers at 800-222-TIPS. Tips can also be sent via text message by sending “Tipla” plus the information to 274677. Information can also be provided at www.lacrimestoppers.org.

I can't even imagine what those poor parents will go through for the rest of their lives, thanks to someone who couldn't see anything beyond their own selfishness. Three weeks old and loved by her family and this evil thing does this to them. There just aren't words to describe how absolutely horrible this is. My heart is just broken for them and that beautiful little angel.
 
Sorry @CLouise -the WTF is because that pictured scared me. Thanks for posting the link though.

Honestly! Why in the world would you have such a naturally pretty shape to your upper duck bill and glaze over it with some whack-assed shit like that? Bad lipstick job aside, that face says it all. Smug and cocky as hell. Crossing my fingers all these twisted, lying, predatory fux involved come out old and wrinkled! :mad:

The plot began when D'Milian falsely told her married boyfriend that she had given birth to his twins last December while she was out of the country, Luna said.

"In order to continue with this deception, she needed to produce two children who matched the ages of her fabricated twins," the chief said.

The first effort on Jan. 3 had D'Milian and McCall using separate cars to follow the mother of a young girl who boarded a public bus in Long Beach, Luna said.

When the woman got off the bus and began to walk home, D'Milian stopped her Range Rover and briefly talked to the woman about her child, Luna said.

Less than two hours later, McCall snatched little Eliza Delacruz from her home, shooting and seriously wounding her parents and uncle, Luna said.

The next day, the baby was found dead in a dumpster in Imperial Beach, a city near the Mexican border and about 100 miles south of the girl's home.

"The reason baby Eliza was killed remains unknown," Luna said. He didn't release the cause of her death.

The next month, D'Milian arranged to find another baby by claiming she had a charitable organization that wanted to help young mothers and contacting her friends and acquaintances, El Segundo Police Chief Mitch Tavera said.

She targeted an acquaintance who had a 4-month-old boy, arranging for McCall to kill the woman and take the child from an El Segundo hotel, Tavera said.

McCall allegedly badly beat the woman with a baseball bat, but fled without the baby after hotel workers knocked on the door and the woman yelled for help, the El Segundo police chief said.

Four suspects arrested in kidnapping and murder of Long Beach baby

LBPD-suspect-sketches-20150319.jpg


On March 25, 2015, the Long Beach Police Department made four arrests in connection with the January 2015 kidnapping and murder of 3-week-old Eliza Delacruz. The four suspects arrested in kidnapping and murder of Long Beach baby are listed below.

Giseleangelique Rene D’sMilian, 47-years-old and a resident of Thousand Oaks, was arrested in Corona. She was booked for murder, kidnapping, attempted murder and conspiracy, and is currently being held in Long Beach City Jail. Her original bail amount was $1,000,000 and has now changed to no bail.

Anthony Ray McCall, 29-years-old and a resident of Oceanside, was arrested in Oceanside. He was booked for murder, kidnapping, attempted murder and conspiracy, and is currently being held in Long Beach City Jail. His original bail amount was $1,000,000 and has now changed to no bail.

Todd Damon Boudreaux, 43-years-old and a resident of Fontana, was arrested in Fontana. He was booked for accessory after the fact and is being held in Long Beach City Jail. His original bail amount was $20,000 and has now changed to no bail.

Charisse Nicole Shelton, 29-years-old and a resident of Corona, was arrested in Corona. She was booked for accessory after the fact and is being held in Long Beach City Jail. Her original bail amount was $20,000 and has increased to $1,000,000. Shelton is D’Milian’s daughter.

Beginning of the case

On January 3, 2015, Long Beach Police were dispatched to a shooting in the 100 block of West 51st Street where three adults sustained gunshot wounds and 3-week-old Eliza Delacruz was kidnapped. The following day, Baby Eliza was found deceased in a trash dumpster in Imperial Beach, California.

For several weeks, Long Beach detectives canvassed the area where the shooting occurred in search of witnesses, investigated the victims’ backgrounds, retraced the victims’ steps on the day of the shooting, and reviewed extensive surveillance video footage.

Possible motive for the kidnapping

Recently, detectives were able to piece together a possible motive for the kidnapping.

In 2014, Suspect Giseleangelique Rene D’Milian fabricated a story to her boyfriend that she was pregnant with his twins. She told him that she gave birth to his children in December 2014, while out of the country.

Based on their investigation, detectives determined D’Milian never gave birth to any children in 2014 and in order to continue with this deception, she intended to produce two children who matched the ages of her fabricated twins.

D’Milian developed a plot with Suspect McCall to kidnap Baby Eliza and pass her off as her own child.

Recap of the January 3, 2015 events

Initially, the investigation moved very slowly because the severity of the victims’ injuries prevented them from providing details to detectives. Once the victims were released from the hospital, they were able to provide more information.

Long Beach detectives learned that Baby Eliza’s mother had taken a public bus home on the day of the shooting and they retraced the bus’ route to locate any surveillance video from nearby businesses. While reviewing video, detectives discovered a black Range Rover had followed the victim and Baby Eliza, and the female driver contacted the victim after she got off the bus.

Based on interviews, detectives determined the following:

  • On January 3, 2015, Suspects D’Milian and McCall, in separate vehicles, followed the bus that the victim with Baby Eliza were riding.
  • About 4:15 p.m., the victim carrying Baby Eliza, exited the bus at Del Amo and Long Beach Boulevards and began to walk home. D’Milian stopped the Range Rover and had a brief conversation with the mother. The victim thought nothing more about the contact and continued home.
  • Less than two hours later, at approximately 5:50 p.m., Suspect McCall forced his way into the Delacruz home, shot three adults, and kidnapped Baby Eliza.
  • The suspect fled the area with the child. The next day, Baby Eliza’s deceased body was found in a trash dumpster in Imperial Beach.
The San Diego County Coroner ruled Baby Eliza’s death a homicide. At this time, specific details related to the cause or time of her death are not being released. The reason Baby Eliza was killed remains unknown.

Connection to an El Segundo assault case

As the Long Beach investigation continued, detectives learned that the El Segundo Police Department was investigating an assault case. In mid-February, Long Beach detectives contacted the El Segundo detectives. A summary of the El Segundo assault case is below.

  • On February 6, 2015, at approximately 1:48 a.m., El Segundo police officers responded to a hotel in the 2000 block of East Mariposa Ave. regarding an unknown trouble call.
  • Once on scene, officers discovered a 23-year-old female had been severely beaten with a full size bat, inside a hotel room. Officers also located the victim’s uninjured 4-month-old infant son inside the room.
  • The alleged attacker, Suspect McCall, had fled the scene after employees knocked on the victim’s door. The employees had been alerted by hotel patrons of a female yelling for help inside the room.
  • Due to the severity of the attack, El Segundo detectives immediately began an attempted murder investigation.
A joint investigation between both departments was initiated and El Segundo detectives provided information regarding persons and suspects who had been identified in the El Segundo case.

Detectives determined D’Milian knew the El Segundo victim for several years and was aware that she recently had a child. The victim was specifically targeted because of her child’s age and because D’Milan knew where to find the woman. D’Milian put a plan into motion to have McCall kill the mother in El Segundo and kidnap her baby, so D’Milian could pretend to be its mother and convince her boyfriend that it was their son.

Release of sketches and video led to tips

As the Long Beach shooting victims’ conditions improved, they began working with a sketch artist.

On March 18, 2015, Long Beach Police released video of the Range Rover and two sketches, one of the female Range Rover driver and one of the male shooting suspect. As a result of the release, detectives received new tips and names that matched those in the El Segundo case.

Using information from the new tips, detectives were able to conduct several interviews with newly found witnesses who provided crucial evidence that ultimately led to the four arrests.

Public’s help sought

The investigation remains ongoing and the public’s help is still needed. Detectives believe D’Milian misrepresented that she had a charitable organization that wanted to help young mothers and their infants. Detectives believe D’Milian contacted friends and acquaintances in their efforts to find infants.

Detectives are hopeful additional witnesses, who can provide supporting evidence of D’Milian or her associates’ prior attempts to seek out infants, will come forward.

Anyone who may have received a phone call or text message is urged to call LBPD Homicide Detail at 562-570-7244. Anyone wishing to provide a tip related to the El Segundo investigation should call Detective Luke Muir at 310-524-2263. Anyone wishing to remain anonymous may call 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), or text TIPLA plus your tip to 274637 (CRIMES), or visit www.LACrimeStoppers.org.

Thank you

This has been an extensive investigation and Long Beach Police Department extends their appreciation to the San Diego Sheriff’s Department, the El Segundo Police Department, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Joint Regional Intelligence Center for their assistance. The LBPD would also like to thank all of the businesses that provided access to their video surveillance footage, and extends its gratitude to the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors for approving the $25,000 reward that was a significant incentive for individuals to come forward with information.

Thousand Oaks woman accused in death of weeks-old baby [Videos]
 
More on Giseleangelique Rene D’Milian...

Eliza De La Cruz murder suspect calls herself a ‘bullet train of success’ on personal website
The woman accused of masterminding the infant-kidnapping plot that led to Eliza De La Cruz’s death marketed herself as a professional business coach and mentor and described herself as a “bullet train of success ... by far one of the most intelligent and talented women ever born,” on her website.

Woman accused in kidnap plot branded self mogul, motivator
A woman who police say is at the center of a scheme to kidnap babies to claim as her own calls herself a mogul, a motivational speaker, a poet, a songwriter and one of the “kindest women you will ever meet,” on her many websites.
 
Well, I completely and totally doubted the families account of the events, so I officially get so apologize and say that I'm a cynical cunt and if by chance a family member or friend shows up:

I'm a total asshole and I apologize.:sorry:
 
What the fuck is so great about this he bitch that she has some 29y/o running around like a dope murdering and kidnapping babies. How desperate was he for some kind of validation that this is where his life wound up.
Bitches like her seem to be becoming less infrequent and that's scary. But she had an accomplice for fucks sake didn't even dirty her own hands. Unbelievable.
 
I believe the baby was killed because her picture was all over news casts....she was such a beautiful baby and easily identifiable. I believe she became a liability to the plan. How these monsters thought they could steal all these babies and get away with it is beyond my comprehension. They should never be let out of prison. They should get the DP. I hope this case is eligible. That poor family suffered so much loss from this one woman's selfishness. I just read how she professes herself to be a pillar of success on her website. She is a psychopathic master manipulator. How she found three people willing to assist her confounds me!! She must be living in the dredges of society to come up with so many willing accomplices so easily.
 
That's a great point I didn't think about. It is a real shame they didn't have the forethought to drop the baby off at any sort of safe place. Hell a door step would have been better than what happened to her.
 
described herself as a “bullet train of success ... by far one of the most intelligent and talented women ever born,”

"calls herself a mogul, a motivational speaker, a poet, a songwriter and one of the “kindest women you will ever meet,”

Jeebus. Not exactly modest, is she? Big talker for such a worthless sociopathic evil scumbag. I truly hope they throw the book at all involved and they all rot in hell forever (and in prison likewise). :rage::rage::rage:

January 5, 2018

A 50-year-old woman was sentenced to 25 years to life in state prison after pleading no contest to charges stemming from an elaborate scheme that left a baby girl in Long Beach dead and some of her family members badly injured, prosecutors said Friday.

Giseleangelique Rene D’Milian had been charged with one count of first-degree murder in the death of Eliza De La Cruz and two counts of attempted murder of the child’s father and uncle, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office said in a news release.

D’Milian had allegedly told her boyfriend who was out of the country she was pregnant when she wasn’t, then hatched a plan to kidnap two children to fool into believing she had given birth to twins while he was away, investigators previously told KTLA.

Both she and 32-year-old Anthony Ray McCall were charged with murdering 3-week-old Eliza after she was abducted from her northern Long Beach home on Jan. 3, 2015.

Her body was found the next day in a dumpster at a strip mall in San Diego County’s Imperial Beach. Investigators never disclosed why they believe Eliza ended up dead amid the kidnapping plot.

Surveillance video obtained by Long Beach police allegedly shows someone following the baby and her family on Jan. 3 ahead of the violent kidnapping.

D’Milian enlisted McCall, an Oceanside resident, to storm the family’s home, officials said. Upon entering, McCall allegedly shot Eliza’s father and uncle who were attempting to flee with her.

Five weeks after that incident, McCall is accused of using a baseball bat to beat a young mother whom D’Milian knew in an attempt to abduct the woman’s 4-month-old son.

McCall fled the room, however, after hotel employees responded, and the baby was unharmed.

McCall is accused of seven counts in connection with the kidnapping plot: one count each of murder and kidnapping, four counts of attempted murder and one count of attempted kidnapping. His trial is expected to begin on Feb. 13.

[doublepost=1520189809,1515220491][/doublepost]
Anthony Ray McCall, 32, of Oceanside, was convicted of murder, attempted murder and other crimes. He faces life in prison. His attorney argued during trial that he had been framed.

McCall snatched Eliza De La Cruz from her mother’s arms at a Long Beach home on Jan. 3, 2015 after his friend followed the woman home from a bus stop, prosecutors said.

McCall also shot the girl’s mother, father and uncle with a gun using a silencer made from potatoes, authorities said. All three survived.

When the kidnapping hit the news the next day, prosecutors said the baby was tied up in a plastic trash bag and dumped in a bin in San Diego County. She died from asphyxiation.

McCall stole the infant because his friend needed a newborn after falsely telling her married boyfriend that she’d had twins, prosecutors said.

The next month, McCall made a failed attempt to steal a 4-month-old boy in an attack in which the mother was beaten with a baseball bat in an El Segundo motel, authorities said.

The mother of the dead child testified Monday during McCall’s trial.

Jacqueline Honorato said she pleaded with the kidnapper not to take her baby.

“I couldn’t do anything to stop him,” Honorato said.

She tried to chase him and said she heard the voice of a woman telling the baby, “I’m your new mommy.”

“Did you ever see her (the baby) again?” the prosecutor asked.

“No,” the crying woman replied.

McCall’s friend, Giseleangelique Rene D’Milian of Thousand Oaks, pleaded no contest to murder and attempted murder in January and was sentenced to 25 years to life in state prison.

So they dumped the baby & left her to suffocate because the heat was on. Couldn’t leave her at a fire station, church, hell even a mall or gas station, because getting away was more important. Unspeakably vicious. :rage:
 
worst than vicious should have garnered the main bitch a death penalty sentence as premeditation would have been there in knowing she was murdering a baby by her actions, too easy to have placed it somewhere to be found.

Anthony Ray McCall, 32, was sentenced to nearly 142 years to life in state prison, FOX 11 reported. He was found guilty on March 2 on seven felony counts: 1 first-degree murder, kidnapping, attempted kidnapping and four counts of attempted murder, according to KTLA.

The Oceanside resident was involved in an elaborate plot hatched by a woman named Giseleangelique Rene D’Milian, who wanted her married boyfriend to believe she had given birth to twins while he was out of the country, according to investigators.
[....]
D’Milian enlisted McCall to storm the home, where he shot that baby’s parents and uncle while fleeing, prosecutors said.
[....]
McCall was also found guilty of beating a 23-year-old woman with a baseball bat as he attempted to kidnap her 4-month-old son from an El Segundo hotel room about a month after De La Cruz’s death.

The baby was unharmed, and hotel employees were able to thwart the abduction when they knocked on the room’s door, causing McCall to flee.

The conviction comes more than three years after the violent events unfolded, and McCall and a third defendant still await sentencing. Todd Damon Boudreaux, 46, previously pleaded guilty to one count of being an accessory after the fact in October 2016.

Boudreaux was also scheduled to be sentenced Monday. McCall is facing multiple life sentences, prosecutors said.

D’Milian was sentenced to life in prison in January after pleading no contest to one count first-degree murder and two counts of attempted murder.
