please don't tell me that the baby he abused at 6 months is they one he killed when he was 2.... that woman couldn't have been stupid enough to take him back after he injured their child and if she did she should also be charged with murder cuz she knew it would be just a matter of time before the abuse excalated and how it would end up..... if so, how many more times did that asshat abused that poor little one before finally killing him cuz plea deal and 60 days in jail for a 5 years sentence sure taught him alot.....
 
"Ismalej-Gomez kept the child's mother captive for four days at gunpoint." she sure is setting up her defence ,, abuse wife that did take back baby abusing pos after he came out of jail... and also this "The two drove to West Virginia before returning to Stamford, and the woman called her attorney, who notified police." What kind of "mother" that has been held captive for 4 days at gunpoint by the man that killed her child calls her lawyer first and have him report the crimes to the police??? Hell i would beat the living shiiit out of him first then call the cops to come get what is left of him...he had to sleep sometimes after all!!!!! i think she called her lawyer to cover her own ass/ets !!! can't wait for her trial to see how the poor thing was so in fear for her life that she took her abuser back after he abused his own (and her own) baby after he was in jail for 2 bigggggggg awful months for abusing his baby... she didn't call her lawyer back then to start divorce (if they were married) to protect her child or even find other living arrangements for her and her child while he was in jail,, she didn't go to a abuse woman shelter, contact cops to put a no contact protection for her or her child etc, nothing at all but wait for him and take him back :( boy she sure must have been in fear for her life...
 
A mother and father in Connecticut will spend more than a decade in prison for their roles in the death of their 2-year-old son, whose body was discovered buried in a shallow grave at a local park nearly three years ago.
Click to expand...
Iris Rivera-Santos and Edgar Ismalej-Gomez on Tuesday both formally pleaded guilty to all of the charges they faced in the slaying of young Liam Rivera, court records show. The charges for each included counts of intentional cruelty to a child, risk of injury to a child, tampering with physical evidence, conspiracy, and moving a dead body without a permit.

In exchange for pleading to their crimes, a Fairfield County Superior Court judge accepted plea deals requiring the mother and father each serve 16 years in a state correctional facility, the Stamford Advocate reported.

Notably, neither parent admitted to killing Liam, although the medical examiner who conducted the boy's autopsy determined that his cause of death was "multiple blunt force traumas to the head."

Despite his plea, Ismalej-Gomez's defense attorney, Dominick Angotta, said his client continues to maintain his innocence.

"Edgar adamantly maintains that he had nothing to do with the child's death," the attorney told New York-based cable news station News 12 after the plea hearing. "Obviously, he made some horrible choices and for that, he has today accepted full responsibility."

Iris Rivera-Santos and Edgar Ismalej-Gomez each pleaded guilty in November to all of the charges they faced in connection with the death of Liam Rivera, 2, who was found in a shallow grave in Cummings Park on Jan. 2, 2023.

They were scheduled to be sentenced Tuesday to 16 years in prison based on the guilty pleas. Instead, Stamford Superior Court Judge Gary White said after reading pre-sentence investigation documents that he was withdrawing the offer in favor of higher sentences for both.

"After reviewing these reports I decided that the offer the court initially made was insufficient, it was too light," White said. "I think a higher sentence for each defendant is more appropriate."

White said he now is offering Rivera-Santos a 20-year sentence and Ismalej-Gomez an 18-year sentence. The case was continued to April 21 when the two will have to tell the judge whether they will accept the sentence or take their cases to trial. White agreed that if the pair wanted to withdraw their guilty pleas to take their case to trial they would be allowed to do so on April 21.
