Rene Barrios killed the baby for interrupting his game

**Dakota Valkyrie** · September 2nd, 2008, 11:57 AM

Rene Edward Barrios, 26, was living with the mother of 18-day-old Jaden Encinas on Oct. 26, 2007, when she left their apartment to run errands. She told police the baby was sleeping on their bed when she left.

When the baby started to cry, Barrios paused his "assault-like" video game, went into the bedroom, shook the newborn and hit him in the head.

"Defendant's goal was to silence Jaden. He wanted the infant to stop crying so he could play his game. The impact was massive and global," Deputy Pima County Attorney Kristen Kelly wrote in court documents.

Barrios left the baby comatose on the bed and spent the next five to 10 minutes finishing his game, Kelly wrote. When Barrios went back into the bedroom, the baby was blue and he called 911.

At the time of Barrios' arrest, Tucson police said the newborn wasn't breathing when firefighters arrived at the apartment. The baby was pronounced dead at a hospital.

The infant had been crying for days, and Barrios became frustrated, his lawyer told the judge. Although he knew he should not shake the baby, he did, his lawyer said. The infant suffered retinal hemorrhages and brain injuries as a result.

Barrios pleaded guilty to manslaughter and will be sentenced to somewhere between 10.5 and 21 years in prison. Members of the Encinas and Barrios families exchanged words as Barrios was taken out of the courtroom crying and in handcuffs.

I don't know what it is... the fact that I logged in this morning and had 476 unread posts, the fact that I'm overwhelmed at work, the fact that I'm sleep deprived or maybe its just that I'm PMSing but I just can't take many more of these stories. This is just too sad. 18 days old. Jeez, that baby didn't have a chance.

The sad thing is that he'll probably get to play video games in prison. Without the interruptions.

Sounds like the asshole wasn't the father of the baby.
Hope they put him in general population in jail - that'll take care of him. I hope the other prisoners don't kill him though - just shake his teeth out of his head & beat his head in every day. For years. And years.

AND - he should have a recording of a baby crying piped into his cell every night.

I think we need to get more creative with our penal system. The standard punishment (lack of freedom) doesn't seem to be enough of a deterrent.

Why? Another fucking mother, leaving her kid with some guy. I bet she's totally shocked that her boyfriend is capable of hurting her baby, right? Give me a fucking break.

**MISSanthropic** · September 2nd, 2008, 02:25 PM

Really, people, open up a newspaper or something. It is NEVER a good idea to shake the baby. YOU'RE GOING TO KILL THE BABY AND GO TO PRISON.

That 18 day old's crying was a nuisance but this grown ass, dumb ass man thinks anyone gives a fuck about his crying. 10.5 years would not be enough time and he will be another dumb bitches penis before you know it.

**ImmortalOne** · September 2nd, 2008, 03:48 PM

18 days old... this baby is the same age as my new nephew. Who I got to hold for the first time this last weekend.. 18 days old... I was just holding a tiny body like that.. I guess my mom instinct is still intact... this disgusts me.

Good. Let the fucker cry. I hope when he cries, during those lonely, cold nights in his cell cuddling with Bubba, that someone comes by and shakes him and kicks him in the head.

When I first read this post, it made me sick to think that a man could kill a baby who was crying just to keep the baby quiet so I skipped posting a response until now. I sure hope there is justice for this little one and the judge sentences him either death or puts him in prison with no chance of ever playing a game system again. That would be hell for a game system player. I just hope Bubba is a big part of his hell.

Just die baby killer!

**Silvahalo** · September 2nd, 2008, 06:09 PM

Yeah, real big man you pieceofshit. Cry you bastard, get used to it, where you're going no one will give a shit your crying will get you shaken and smacked upside the head like the baby you killed!

Rest in peace baby Jaden.

There are no video games in prison but I'm POSITIVE that the other inmates will keep him more than occupied in his spare time. In fact I'm counting on it.

May this sweet little angel rest in peace. My daughter had a baby last November. In December she stayed for awhile with some friends (needed help...postpartum depression. And I say, good mommy because she askd for help). She called me and told me that "Teresa spoiled Hayvyn. She held him all the time. So now he cries until I hold him. I don't know what to do". I suggested that she hold him because, years from now she'll miss having a little, cuddly , completely trusing infant who is happy just to be held.

I've also suggested several times that she come stay with me and I'd help her. But she doesn't want to leave the East Coast.

To quote Reese Witherspoon in Freeway "Then they'll send you to the penitentiary, where the Mighty Aryan Brotherhood will make you wish you'd never been born." Have fun in prison, bitch!

**Nell** · October 1st, 2008, 06:25 PM

Everytime I see one of these stories I think " you piece of shit! Somebody held and loved your ugly ass, or you wouldn't be alive." His mother shoulda shook the brains right out of him at birth.

A Tucson man who pleaded guilty in the death of a baby had his sentence reduced by four years after a judge said he didn't fully consider mitigating circumstances at the original sentencing.

Pima County Superior Court Judge Richard Fields reduced the sentence of Rene Barrios, 27, from 15 to 11 years on Monday.

He was taken away crying? Then why didn't one of the bailif just shake his dumbass till his head fell off? It sure sounds like a great idea to me.

**ineedanap** · May 19th, 2009, 05:01 PM

He cited Barrios' strong family and community ties, his good upbringing, his potential to rehabilitate, lack of prior convictions and acceptance of responsibility.

Oh yeah, he's a standup guy alright. GMAFB! Nothing changes the fact that he beat a baby. An 18 DAY old baby.

**Angelinfl** · May 19th, 2009, 05:18 PM

A baby should always take priority over a computer, over anything. Many of us are addicted to something on a computer whether it be a forum, blog, chat or game... but I hope all of us have common sense (which it seems to have died in society) to be able to know what is important and what is a priority.

These people don't have a clue. When you drive. If you sit too long at a light people are blowing their horns at you. They are changing lanes quickly to shave off a few seconds here and there. I think society is breaking down and life is overwhelming for these people.

But there is no greater priority than a baby no matter what! They are helpless and defenseless and we MUST protect them.

**buggysmommy** · May 19th, 2009, 07:21 PM

It's crazy that such a thing as a video game would cause this type of behavior. I can't recall one time where I got mad at my daughter for crying or interrupting something I was doing. Shit I just learned to walk away from what I was doing! I don't spend mad time on the computer or any other project I might be trying to do-my child is my project and she will lnever be finished! She is ongoing...

These stupid selfish fuckers-god I fucking hate people today!...
