A man accused of torturing his girlfriend’s 8-year-old son to death did so because he thought the child was gay.

32-year-old Isauro Aguirre, of Palmdale, California, has been charged with the murder of 8-year-old Gabriel Fernandez with a special circumstance of torture. The boy’s mother, Pearl Fernandez, also faces trial.

During opening statements on Monday (October 16), Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office prosecutor on Jon Hatami detailed the horrific abuse allegedly carried out by the couple.

Hatami explained that Aguirre and Fernandez beat and bit Gabriel, burned him with cigarettes, shot him with a B.B. gun, whipped him, starved him, fed him cat litter, and kept him gagged and bound before he was discovered on May 22, 2013.

The couple had called the emergency services that treated Gabriel, but only in an attempt to cover up their crimes, the prosecutor said.

“They didn’t call 911 to help Gabriel. They called 911 to cover up what they did,” he said. “The defendant lied on the 911 call.”

Gabriel was hospitalised and died two days later.

The prosecutor also said that Aguirre forced Gabriel to dress in girls’ clothes before going to school, and did not like the child because he believed he was gay.

“Gabriel’s last vision was that man over there standing over Gabriel, beating him to death,” Hatami said.

“The evidence will show that the defendant is nothing more than a bully,” Hatami said. “He was a security guard who intentionally tortured and abused a helpless and innocent little boy.”
