Rachel Limon admits she's an evil stepmother

**Dakota Valkyrie** · December 13th, 2009, 11:21 AM

Acting on a child abuse tip, Shasta County deputies approached a home on Friday afternoon. They were told by the guy answering the door that there were no children in the home and refused to let them in. Luckily for one 7-year-old boy, the deputies didn't take "no" for an answer. In a bedroom of the double-wide trailer, they discovered the severely injured boy. He had numerous serious and life-threatening injuries including multiple bone fractures, burns, internal injuries, bruises, disfigurement. The boy appeared to have been choked, was malnourished and terrified. It's estimated that the untreated injuries occurred a week to 10 days before.

When interviewed by authorities, the boy's caregiver, 27-year-old Rachel Ann Limon, admitted to physically assaulting the boy on numerous occasions. Her brother, Gregory Matthew Limon, 22, admitted that he knew about some of the alleged abuse. Gregory Limon was arrested on suspicion of willful harm or injury to a child and obstructing an officer. Rachel Limon was arrested on suspicion of torture, willful harm to a child and aggravated mayhem. On Saturday, she received the added charge of attempted murder.

The boy, who's only been identified as "Junior", appears to be Rachel Limon's stepson. Where his biological parents are is not specified. The family of the bio-mom has been trying to gain custody of him but had not been able to locate him. Junior's current condition has not been released. Rachel Limon also had three other children that have been found to be safe, in good health and placed in protective custody.

I'm so glad someone reported the abuse. As for Rachel and Greg, I suggest taking that goddamned murse and shove it down their fucking throats. Then, let's starve the bastards and disfigure them for weeks. Then, let's find out where the parent is that left the poor child with these people.

OMG!! She is evil! How could she inflict all of this horrible injuries to that little guy? And his bio family was looking for him and she could have just handed him over. I hope she rots in prison and her brother too. Heal little guy!

Family members were anxious to determine Junior’s condition Saturday, but were unable to get it from the Sacramento hospital. The family believes the boy is in protective custody.

“My nephew is on his deathbed,” said Forest Radford of Redding, who believes the boy will survive. Junior is the son of Radford’s sister, who doesn’t have custody of her son.

“We didn’t know any of this was going on,” he said, referring to the alleged abuse.

Radford, a firefighter for a private contractor, didn’t want to give details yet about the situation, but said Junior’s biological father is an illegal immigrant.

Dottie Smith, a freelance, historical writer for the Record Searchlight and a blogger for Redding.com, contacted her friend, Becca Howsmon of Becca’s Cafe on Balls Ferry Road in Anderson, to raise funds on Junior’s behalf.

Smith read about Junior’s injuries and wanted to help. “I feel so sorry for that little boy,” Smith said.

Howsmon is setting up an account for the Christmas Boy at North Valley Bank where people can make donations starting Monday.

“Dottie touched my heart by trying to give him a Christmas. God bless her,” Radford said. “That touched my whole family,” he said.

On Saturday night, the Sheriff's Office said it had conducted a statewide search for Rachel Limon's other three children. The children were found to be safe, in good health and were placed in protective custody, Cobb said.

Let's all do what we can to restore this little boys faith in humanity! I'll post the info as to the donations, as soon as it is online!!

Heal Junior, be restored completely!

**Pene784** · December 13th, 2009, 02:28 PM

I did not realize this little guy was on his deathbed! I hope he makes a full recovery soon. My heart really goes out to him.

**thebooblady** · December 13th, 2009, 02:50 PM

I think the bological family is lying about trying to find him/get him back as the boys uncle stated in the article. He said:

Radford, a firefighter for a private contractor, didn’t want to give details yet about the situation, but said Junior’s biological father is an illegal immigrant.

Radford, his wife, Kate, and his family have tried to gain guardianship of Junior in the past, but they didn’t know Rachel Limon’s recent whereabouts.

“Half of my family has tried to get Junior back,” he said.

And I'm 99% sure this is his wife who commented on the article:

Firewife writes:
Please pray for this little boy. For everyone who is speculating, this boy was in the care of a guardian, not his mother. And his family thought he was safe. I am saying this as a member of his family! I love my nephew and if I even thought for a second that something was wrong would have taken him in to my home. Please just pray for his speedy recovery!

Then says:

Everybody keeps making assumptions. Mister limon is her brother not her husband. Her husband is the boys father! That is why she is the named the caregiver. Everyone on here making assumptions as to why the family didn't have him is saddly mistaken! We his family tried to get custody of him when abuse was suspected, even took it to the family investigator who handles all gaurdianships. We were told there was nothing we could do! Even after she (Rachel) told us she wouldn't contest us getting gaurdianship. Stop assuming and start praying!

She totally contradicts herself.

**crickett** · December 13th, 2009, 04:25 PM

Yeah, the family does contradict theirselves. I just thank God that the police did the right thing and found this little angel.
I wonder who called and reported the child abuse? Maybe the mother? or her family? A neighbor? Whoever did it is a real guardian angel.

**ScribbleMuse** · December 13th, 2009, 04:59 PM

This poor boy seems to have a big mess of life. No one knows who he should be with, and no one has stepped up to take custody in the right way. I'm not sure what to think of the family statements, but I have a feeling that if someone truly wanted to hunt him down, police would have been involved before now, and someone would have had some info. I mean, if there was a child who I wanted custody of, and if I had no idea where they were, I'd be filing a missing persons report.

I can understand when a bio parent takes off with the kid, as in the situation with Riley Sawyers and her grandmother searching for her--the cops wouldn't help out since technically the child was with her mother and no rights had been terminated. But in this case, it seems no one had official custody of the little guy, and the mother and father sure as hell didn't have him. So where the hell was the common sense in the supposed search for the child? Did they just look up his name in the phone book and upon not finding it, give him up for lost?

Javier Ibarra Lopez, 29 (Father of Junior)

But he was not arrested on charges connected with the alleged assault.

Javier Ibarra Lopez, 29, was arrested Saturday on suspicion of allegedly failing to appear in Superior Court on assault and other charges unrelated to the child's beating, as well as for allegedly being in the country illegally.

A $75,000 bench warrant was issued for him in April 2007, according to electronic Superior Court records

Lopez remains in custody in Shasta County jail without bail, but it could not be learned Sunday if he might be a suspect in the beating case or if any additional charges may be filed against him.

Meanwhile, two Shasta County residents have started a donation account at North Valley Bank for Junior, called "Christmas Boy" on the bank account.
Dottie Smith, a freelance, historical writer for the Record Searchlight and a blogger for Redding.com, and Becca Howsmon of Becca's Cafe on Balls Ferry Road in Anderson, established the fund to raise funds on Junior's behalf.

As of mid-afternoon Sunday, about $200 had been donated at the cafe, said Howsmon, noting that people wanting to make donations at any North Valley Bank branch may do so starting today

http://www.redding.com/news/2009/dec...n-boy-custody/

The Father should be beat, just for leaving Junior with Assclown and Brother-Assclown, he surely knew of her propensity for abuse!!

Heal Junior, we're all praying for you!!

**moonlilly1981** · December 14th, 2009, 02:45 PM

poor baby was failed by everyone. If my ex's gf was beating my son I would sure as shit fight as hard as I could for him.

**Dakota Valkyrie** · December 16th, 2009, 10:29 AM

Demented fucks:

A Cottonwood woman accused of nearly beating to death her boyfriend's 7-year-old son told Shasta County sheriff's detectives that she was seeking revenge against the child's biological mother.

A sheriff's investigative report, which was made public Tuesday, describes the horrific injuries Rachel Limon allegedly inflicted upon the boy, known as Junior, including possibly burning his nipples and breaking six ribs. The child also suffered a collapsed lung, the sheriff's report said.

Furthermore, it reveals that Limon, 27, admitted to detectives to causing at least some of those injuries.

"Rachel admitted to punching the victim over the course of approximately a week for various reasons," the sheriff's report says. "The main reason for the abuse was out of revenge due to problems between Rachel and (Melissa) Radford."

Radford, 27, is the boy's biological mother. She was arrested Saturday in Sacramento on two Redding Police Department warrants unrelated to the alleged beating.

The sheriff's report said that Limon, too, has a child with the boy's biological father, Javier Ibarra Lopez, 29, which is a source of tension.

But Limon denied ever having burned the child, although she did admit to digging her fingers into his chest, punching him, tossing him out the back door onto the deck with a 1-foot drop-off and grabbing him on his face and neck.

"Rachel admitted she knew what she did was wrong" and kept him out of school due to his visible injuries, the report said. She also said that she failed to seek medical help for him, it added.

It's believed the boy would have died within 24 hours without medical treatment, the report said.

According to the sheriff's report, the boy was found Friday inside Limon's Rhonda Road residence on a pullout mattress without sheets or blankets and with only about 12 inches exposed on which to sleep.

The boy, who was in severe pain and could barely move, had numerous abrasions and bruises on his face, torso and legs and had difficulty breathing, the report said.

It also said that he suffered extensive bruising to his genitals and pelvic area.

When asked who had hurt him, the boy said, "I did it to myself," the sheriff's report said.
[...]

"He's not completely out of the woods yet, but I understand that he is expected to recover," Hanna said.

He also confirmed that the boy's mother was arrested Saturday in Sacramento after she apparently tried to visit her son at the hospital.

Those warrants charge her with violating probation and failing to appear in Shasta County Superior Court, according to inmate information provided by a Sacramento County Jail Web site.

Electronic Superior Court records show that bench warrants had been issued for Radford after she repeatedly failed to appear in court on drug and other charges.

**Little Pea** · December 16th, 2009, 11:30 AM

That is horrifying.

When I read the condition he was in and the environment, then Jr says he did it to himself...OMG. I hope he recovers fully and finds a loving home, where he matters and is loved.

And that Limon winch, doing it to get back at bio mom...what a twisted, psycho monster. I hate her.

when you do ugly things it makes you an ugly person both inside and out

**ScribbleMuse** · December 16th, 2009, 09:07 PM

Yuck. The bitch is 3 years younger than me, and makes me look like a newborn.

Thanks for updating this story. I hate this bitch. I have no idea how monsters like this can exist without being locked up by now. I mean, the mindset to actually not only consider beating a child in jealousy of their parent, but to actually carry it out over a long period of torture--that mind can NOT have appeared normal throughout the monster's life. I always wonder what has happened BEFORE news worthy stories are found out. I'm sure that this bitch has done evil things before and has gotten away with it. You don't wake up one day and graduate to being less than human immediately or suddenly.

**eracsurfer** · December 16th, 2009, 09:50 PM

I don't think I would run to Mexico...too much work. I would mail the bitch there piece by piece in TINY envelopes!

I truly hope that someone hugs this child and lets him know that it was never his fault. These stories just tear my heart out.

**Dakota Valkyrie** · December 29th, 2009, 10:05 PM

A 7-year-old Cottonwood boy whose plight brought tears to the eyes of countless north state residents has been released from UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento and placed into foster care, a sergeant with the Shasta County Sheriff’s Office said today.

Sgt. Lisa Shearman confirmed that the child has been discharged from the hospital and placed into foster care, but could not provide any further details.
[...]

Meanwhile, the boy’s father has also been sentenced to 16 months in prison after pleading guilty last week to an unrelated crime.

**this is going badly** · December 29th, 2009, 10:18 PM

I bet step mom kept him for the extra cash and foodstamps she was getting.

But it sounds like the bio family is also extremely fucked up. For the good of society this whole bunch of losers needs to be spayed/neutered.

Amen to that, tigb, AMEN!!

KHSL Action News did an investigation on how Limon became guardian of her boyfriend's 7 year old son J.D.

[...]
When we looked at her criminal file, we discovered this wasn't her first legal trouble involving children.

In November, 2004 Limon and her mother were arrested and charged with felony child endangerment, possession of methamphetamine for sale, and maintaining a place for use of methamphetamine. Drug agents had raided the same Cottonwood address that Limon then shared with her mother and her two toddlers. We wondered how did Limon get temporary guardianship of J.D. 13 months later, when the drug case was still open?

Shasta County District Attorney Jerry Benito said "it certainly would be disappointing to me if we think somebody had done something that put a child in danger, I would hope the court and the guardianship process would take note of that fact."

Benito says Limon was not the ringleader in the drug and child endangerment case, but her mother was. Rachel was not prosecuted, but only on the condition that she stay out of trouble for a year. Prosecutors say Donda Limon pleaded guilty to drug possession. Despite those earlier child endangerment and drug charges, Judge Cara Beatty granted Limon guardianship of J.D. in 2008.

We asked Court Executive Melissa Fowler-Bradley if such drug and child endangerment charges would preclude someone from being appointed as a guardian. "It would not preclude someone, it would definitely merit further investigation, it would depend if a conviction was entered or not. Sometimes the court is placed in a position where they don't have an ideal person to choose. Proposed guardians in these cases are not Kelli Saams." (the news anchor/reporter of this story)
[...]

Limon's guardianship was renewed by Judge Daniel Flynn just two months before J.D. was found beaten. The court executive insists the court investigator and judges do a thorough job. But she admits they could use another investigator to research potential guardians.

Fowler Bradley said "sometimes it's an individual that may meet requirements and the investigation is sufficient to appoint them as guardian, but sometimes it's not a perfect world. "

Court records reveal J.D. was shuffled from home to home bouncing between his mother, who court records show was battling an alleged drug problem, and his father, an illegal immigrant who faced several felony charges. He spent other periods of time with a grandmother and two guardians.

In a 2007 letter to the court, Rachel Limon wrote "I is taking the exam to be in real estate think J.D. would have a better future with me" And in 2008 she wrote "I am and always will be the stability and love that J.D. needs."

District Attorney Jerry Benito says "if anything positive comes out of this case relating to guardianship, I think it would be that we take a closer look at that process and make sure children are being protected."

You don't get these jobs unless you can double talk with the best
"investigator and judges do a thorough job But she admits they could use another investigator to research potential guardians"
Does that mean they don't do a thorough job? So which is it? If you look past the double talk it's the same old crap excuse, double talk is really what they excel in and the major requirement of all family service administrators

Okay, now that I have gotten my giggle-snort out of the way due to her poorly worded letter to the court, I sit here wishing we could be updated on the current condition of the poor child.

**nopatience** · August 6th, 2010, 11:46 AM

When asked who had hurt him, the boy said, "I did it to myself," the sheriff's report said.

And now I am in tears....

I am asking for 1 hr or less w/ this bitch. No weapons needed, just time. I will make her scream like she never thought possible and by the time I am finished, she will be BEGGING me to just let her die. Fucking cunt ass bitch whore!!!!!!!!!!!

And if nobody else wants this little boy, I would love the chance to take him and show him how nice it feels to be loved.

**Tundratot** · August 7th, 2010, 04:27 AM

It's about time these parasites were brought to trial. I hope the time it took to get to this trial just means they will slam dunk the case. Fry!

**Silvahalo** · August 7th, 2010, 05:25 PM

You know you have to be a real cold hearted bitch to beat on a child to get back at someone else. It's so depraved.
I'd really like a chance to beat that face in of her's it should be disfigured and tattooed with the words, " I'M AN ASS!".

JD would have died within 24 hours. Whomever called in with the tip of child abuse, I thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I hope JD now in foster care will get a fair chance at life. He deserves a lot of TLC, love and patience.

Be well little one.
