Awilda Lopez is up for parole in NOV-2010...the bitch needs to rot!!

[Silvahalo]

If you're not familiar with the case of Elisa Izquierdo (http://www.post-gazette.com/images2/20010924apizquierdo.jpg), daughter of the vile bitch, Awilda Lopez (http://www.nytimes.com/1996/06/25/nyregion/mother-of-elisa-izquierdo-pleads-guilty-to-murder-in-a-pivotalchild-abuse-case.html), its an infamous case that dates back from 1995. Lopez came under the influence of crack cocaine. (Like famous victims Nadine Lockwood (http://www.dreamindemon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=31821&highlight=nadine+lockwood) and Nixzmary Brown).
Awilda Lopez was a crack addicted bitch who got custody of her 6 year old daughter Elisa Izquierdo after Elisa’s bio dad died.

When little Elisa asked where her dad was and why he wasn’t coming for her, Awilda barked, “because he’s dead”!!!! Awilda Lopez and her new husband, Carlos Lopez, became convinced that little Elisa was possessed by demons! Awilda would take the kids out in the middle of the night looking for crack. She kept Elisa locked up in her room and she was forced to use a bucket for a toilet. She was being starved and couldn’t watch tv, play or eat with her brothers and sisters. On a family trip to Brooklyn, stepdad Carlos Lopez, threw Elisa into the ocean three times to “rid her of demons” (never prosecuted for it) Awilda cut off Elisa’s hair, put ammonia in her mouth and called her a “mongoloid” and a “filthy little whore”. Awilda Lopez raped her own 6 year old daughter with a toothbrush. She tied Elisa up and raped her with a hair brush to the rectum to get “demons” out of her. If that wasn’t enough she held Elisa upside down and mopped the floor with Elisa’s head! Screams would be heard coming from the apartment late at night. “Mommy, mommy, please stop! No more, no more, I’m sorry”! Awilda finally killed Elisa by throwing her against a concrete wall, her head bashed in.

****Unfortunately the most horrific part of this story is about to happen: Awilda Lopez is up for parole this November, 2010! In 5 months this savage beast could be walking the streets of New York City again! If you would like to write a letter to the parole board to contest Awilda Lopez being released, here’s the address:

Bedford Hills Correctional Center
247 Harris Road
Bedford Hills, NY 10507
Attn: Parole Dept.

When you write the letter, make sure you put her name “Awilda Lopez” and her inmate number, 96G1200 in the letter*******

Prosecutors laid out the details of their charges in a clinical, 30-second presentation yesterday in State Supreme Court in Manhattan: Awilda Lopez had badly beaten Elisa Izquierdo, her 6-year-old daughter, and then allowed her to lie, dying and unaided, for nearly two days. The judge, loudly and bluntly, then asked the only question left: "Ms. Lopez, is that what happened?"

Ms. Lopez, who had entered the courtroom limping and fighting for breath, rocked slightly in her chair, spoke with her lawyer, cried quietly. Prosecutors had offered the 29-year-old Ms. Lopez a sentence of 15 years to life in exchange for pleading guilty to her daughter's murder. Ms. Lopez's first, mumbled response of "O.K." only angered the judge.

Don't O.K. me," thundered Justice Alvin Schlesinger. "You are not making a bargain. Is that what happened?"

Ms. Lopez, barely audible, at last said, "Yes, it happened."

That three-word answer ended a chapter in the case of Elisa Izquierdo, an example of child abuse that has produced outrage, legislation and the Mayor's promise to overhaul New York City's child welfare agency.

[...]
As grisly as the details of the child's final beating were, the circumstances of how city officials and others had failed to rescue her proved almost as troubling.

That Elisa was at risk had been known for years to child welfare officials, the Family Court, social workers, schoolteachers and others. Her death moved Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani to revamp the city's child welfare agency; it resulted in the rare suspensions of a caseworker and supervisor, and it inspired legislation to open the records on child abuse to public inspection.
"Under the arrangement, Ms. Lopez, who officially pleaded guilty to second-degree murder, is to serve at least 15 years in prison before she is eligible for parole. Had she been convicted at trial, she could have been sentenced to 25 years to life."

I cannot believe this monster is up for parole in November, the chance are not likely she will get it but still, it's an outcry, this woman needs to rot AND find death in a most vile way! let the parole board know what you think, my letter is going out tomorrow!

Man Silva, all I can say is wow! This case is huge because it brought reform to the system in several ways. I doubt she will make parole, and you can also bet she will play up the reformed psychiatric angle to show she is rehabilitated.

[hotcnymom]

I remember this I was young,I also remember my mother crying as the newscaster reported the case.I am writing my letter now.I was hoping the bith would have been beaten to death by now...

Dear Karma,

Please read this comment, and the story above and get to work. The bitch's name is awilda Lopez and she is in a prison up northeast. Have your fucking way with this cunt, and any other in the slammer for child abuse.

Thanks,

There is no way in hell this woman will make parole, her case was the basis for some major overhaul in the welfare system, if they let her out it will look bad for them. But just in case, I am writing a letter also. I had never heard of this case until now, I think this bitch will seriously do life, just like she deserves.

[thehesbomb]

When little Elisa asked where her dad was and why he wasn’t coming for her, Awilda barked, “because he’s dead”!!!!

This line breaks my heart into a million tiny pieces.

[thehesbomb]

Perhaps to his own surprise, Izquierdo--who had emigrated from Cuba hoping to teach dance--turned out to be a wonderful father. At first there were panicky calls to female acquaintances about diapers and formula, but eventually he mastered the basics. Every morning he would iron a dress for Elisa and put her beautiful hair into braids or pigtails. When she was four, he rented a Queens banquet hall for a party marking her baptism. Says a friend, Mary Crespo: "She was his life. He would always say Elisa was his princess."

__________________________________________________

But running parallel with the fairy tale was the nightmare. In 1991 Awilda petitioned for, and was granted, unsupervised visitation rights with her daughter. The mother had already regained custody of her two older children; she seemed to have effected a miraculous recovery. In December 1990 social workers signed an affidavit stating that she had given up drugs, married a man named Carlos Lopez and settled at a permanent address. "Both [Lopezes] are willing to go for random drug tests," the affidavit read. "They never miss appointments with the agency, and they are always on time. Mr. Lopez is supportive...He appears to be gentle and understanding."

That last was a grave misjudgment. Carlos Lopez, who did maintenance work, was solicitous only in public. At night neighbors heard dishes, pots and pans crashing against walls. In January 1992, a month after Awilda gave birth to his second child, Carlos stabbed her 17 times with a pocketknife, putting her in the hospital for three days. According to a neighbor, the attack occurred in front of Elisa, during a weekend visit. Carlos served two months in jail and then, neighbors say, resumed beating his wife--and his visiting stepdaughter.

Elisa's life became an excruciating alternation of happiness and horror. The four-year-old took the Friends School's screening examination and passed. But according to Montessori teacher Barbara Simmons, she also began telling people that her mother had locked her in a closet. On one occasion she volunteered, "Awilda hits me. I don't want to go to Awilda." Montessori principal Bryce says she reported suspected abuse to both the Brooklyn Bureau of Community Services and a child-abuse hot line--the CWA's second warning about Elisa. In response, Bryce has said, child-welfare workers made several visits to the Lopez home, "and then stopped, as they usually do."

Izquierdo apparently knew about the mistreatment. A neighbor told the New York Times that Elisa would wake up screaming in the night, that although toilet trained, she had begun to urinate and defecate uncontrollably and that there were cuts and bruises on her vagina. In 1992 Izquierdo petitioned the family court to deny Awilda custodial rights, but fate intervened before the court could act on his request. By late 1993, already ill with cancer, he was planning to take Elisa to Cuba, and perhaps hoping to leave her there permanently. Tickets were bought, but he became too ill to travel, and on May 26 Izquierdo died.

How horribly sad, daddy was going to try and save her but ran out of time and fucking Cruella got her hands on Elisa permanently ,damn, that seriously made me bawl.

[redsaid]

I don't even know what to say. People are nothing but animals when they do things like this. We are supposed to be civilized. This is barbaric. I hate it when I hear that one child is singled out, while the others enjoy food, water, safety and comfort. A little tiny baby mind cannot grasp why their life is the way it is. And that is what breaks my heart. Innocence. :argh:

[Rawrehz]

Bitch needs to rot... (signing letter, licking envelope, & SEALED with a big fat FUCK YOU to Lopez)! :argh:

Some people are animals, that's why we pay those incompetent, unsupervised, CPS agencies to be a safety net, unfortunately they seem to cause more harm than good
Seems CPS has a hand in every child death we read about, they always revamp, and investigate themselves for public appeasement, but supervision never comes about and when the heat is off its back to happy hour and filling phony visit reports, never a reprimand if not for public outcry, worthless perk Teflon agency with perk Teflon double talking administrators
Sure the mother is at fault, she tortured the child, but DAM if CPS, was doing its job they would've saved this child, they're as responsible as the child torturing murdering freaks
This father would have saved the child, his death just makes it all so sick

You said it.

The world works in mysterious ways, and I don't have a clue as to why the dad died before he could save her. But CPS should have picked up the pieces.

[redsaid]

And on top af all this, it sounds like she was sexually abused, and there's nothing said about that.

[Silvahalo]

The chances are slim to none she'll get out, I realize that, BUT even then its important that people send a message what we think of people like this in our society. I have not the words to fully convey my outrage over how little Elisa was let down by so many people. Some heads from CPS (http://www.nytimes.com/1996/09/03/nyregion/as-officials-recalled-elisa-s-fatal-abuse-another-girl-lay-dying.html?ref=awilda_lopez) actually did role from this case, glad to see the accountability. Any change that leads to one child saved from such brutal abuse makes a difference, worth the write in and licking the stamp.

Thank you all for taking the time to read this and make the difference! Little Elisa was destined for great things, people took notice of her and she was dearly loved by her father.

Elisa looks so regal in this picture...so beautiful, a little princess she was to her father.

Elisa your memory lives strong and true...you were destined for great things, even as your life was stolen you leave behind a legacy.
You will never be forgotten....shine bright in the heavens!

...he loved that little girl". Anytime baby Elisa was in distress, her father attended to her every need. Once, when she ran a slight fever, her father panicked and called Ms.Nudrow who advised him to cover her with a blanket and give her baby medicine. When she was teething and in pain, her father again called for help and was told to buy a special gel for her gums. Gustavo took parenting classes at the local YWCA and after he got the basics down, it was said that he thrived in his new role as father. Gustavo worked long hours at the shelter everyday and every other weekend earning $1,675.00 a month to take care of Elisa. While he was at work, he left Elisa with neighbors and friends. Sometimes he'd bring her to work with him and have co-workers watch her.

In 1990 when Elisa was one year old, her father enrolled her in the YWCA's Montessori Preschool. Every morning he would get up and iron a new dress for her and fix her beautiful hair into pigtails and braids and buns. Barbara Simmons, Elisa's teacher at the preschool, recalled,"How many men brush their little girl's hair and part their hair in a perfect straight line"? Elisa was described as having a special enchanted aura, a brilliant smile and flashing black eyes. Everybody loved her.The school's director, Phyllis Bryce, recalled,"she was beautiful, radiant. She had an inner strength and alot of potential for growth".

[...]
n 1991, Elisa's mother, Awilda Lopez, petitioned the courts for unsupervised weekend visitations with her daughter. The petition was granted and on weekends Elisa would go to her mother's apartment on Manhattan's lower east side. Awilda had married Carlos Lopez, a maintainance worker. She already had two older children, Rubebcito and Kasey. Elisa was her third child. Awilda would go on to have three more children, Taisha, Carlos and Rafael. During these weekend visitations, Elisa was being abused. In 1992, Gustavo Izquierdo petitioned the courts to have Awilda's parental rights terminated. The weekend visits stopped for awhile and Elisa was back full time with her father.

[...]
In 1994, Elisa celebrated her fifth birthday at the Montessori Preschool. She took the Brooklyn Friends School screening exam and passed. She was scheduled to start classes in the fall. Gustavo, who became sick with cancer, was concerned that Awilda would regain custody of Elisa. He devised a plan that he shared with his cousin, Elsa Canizares, to send Elisa to Cuba. Gustavo Izquierdo died of cancer on the day he was planning on putting Elisa on the plane. The tickets were already purchased.

After Gustavo died there was a custody fight for Elisa held at Brooklyn Family Court before Judge Phoebe Greenbaum. Gustavo's cousin, Elsa Canizares, had petitioned the court for custody of Elisa. Phyllis Bryce, the director of the Montessori school and Prince Michael of Greece, wrote letters to the judge recommending Elsa Canizares be given custody. Judge Greenbaum awarded custody of Elisa to her mother. Elisa, who was use to being the apple of her daddy's eye, now found herself to be one of six children living in a crowded apartment. On November 22nd, 1995, a year and a half after the death of her beloved father, six year old, Elisa Izquierdo (http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=13940948) was murdered by her mother.

I don't know how old this woman would be now.. but the risk of her having another child to abuse would be high. This is a hard economic market and how would she survive.

Someone would get 25 years to life without a plea... We have lots of people coming up for parole and not getting it for various reasons.

I think parole should be denied. Very heinous and tortorous crime. Jail to me only intensifies the bad in already bad people, dements them and makes them worse. I think we need to build bigger prisons and make them very unpleasant places to be. I'm thinking it wouldn't deter crime but would be more about punishing those who are in there. I don't think jails should be great places. Heck some of the inmates eat better than those that are struggling to put a roof over their heads and food in their bellies honestly.

Think about the man who kidnapped that little girl.. he cut her hair to look like a boy. He was spray painting his car and killed himself. He had just gotten out of jail for something and had a previous history of being involved in something nefarious with children I believe. Why should we believe this woman is going to change in 15 years?

[redsaid]

''The agency has an enormous amount of resources to protect and care for children,'' he said. ''But they are resources that have to be managed better.''

I never thought is was a lack of resources. Never.

Only thing I found on that Awilda Lopez (aka vile cunt) was denied parole back in Nov. 2010. no surprise, really but wanted to see it for myself.
She needs to die as she gave death.

State Keeps Death Files of Abused Children Secret (http://www.nytimes.com/2012/02/29/nyregion/nys-evades-requirement-for-disclosure-on-childrens-deaths.html?ref=awildalopez)


[...]
The resulting outcry led to an overhaul of New York City’s child welfare system and the passage in Albany of Elisa’s Law (http://nyti.ms/x7pJ9Z), a measure loosening the secrecy regulations in child-abuse investigations. Among other reforms, the law required a public accounting of the events leading up to the death of any child in New York State who had been reported as abused or neglected.
But for the last five years, the state’s Office of Children and Family Services (http://ocfs.ny.gov/main/) has been working quietly and persistently to limit access to those case reports, which in most instances are the only record of the circumstances leading up to the deaths.
In 2007, the office tried to have the law changed. When that failed, it made its own rule. According to a policy enacted by the office in September 2008, it will not release the fatality reports mandated by Elisa’s Law if there are siblings or other children in the home and officials decide that revealing the family’s abuse and investigative history is not in their “best interests.”
