A Santa Paula woman was arrested Monday after police said she tied up her 3-year-old son, put a plastic bag over his head and left him inside the bedroom of a burning home over the weekend.
Maricela Magana Ruiz, 47, was tied to a bed inside another room of the home on Bahia Circle when firefighters responded there shortly after 6 p.m. Sunday for a report of a structure fire, the Santa Paula Police Department said in a news release.Firefighters extinguished flames in the downstairs living room and rescued Ruiz and her son, police said. Both were taken to Santa Paula Hospital to be treated for smoke inhalation.
Detectives interviewed Ruiz and concluded she had placed a bag over the boy’s head and bound his hands before leaving him in the bedroom, police said.She was arrested on suspicion of child abuse and arson of an inhabited structure and booked into Todd Road Jail, where she’s being held in lieu of $550,000 bail, jail records show.
There are people with love, perseverance and energy who can withstand the stress of bringing up children and there are some who can't and would do anything to rid themselves of children in any way possible. Unfortunately there is no way nature can predict this.
Thank God the child survived. This thing (not worthy of being called a woman) is pure evil. Evil.
She looks like she's been through hell!
Attempted murder. It was attempted murder.
Wicked witch from the East?
Do the same to her...I'll gladly tie her ass up...
Face of evil. She’ll get her turn to burn.
No punishment will fit the crime. But I do hope she suffers immensely in prison.
Burn her alive!!!
Inject her now. I have heard enough.
What the hell is going on with mothers, people? I read a story earlier today where a 'mother' hanged her three children IIRC after having sex with an animal.
