New Mexico Foster Parent Confesses Guilt of Sexually Abusing Children for Years but Does No Jail Time, 8-Year-Old Girl Awarded $485 Million
As the movie "Sound of Freedom" is shown to packed out movie theaters across the U.S. to millions of people sitting in air conditioned theaters eating their popcorn, shaking their heads at the "horror of child sex trafficking" that is portrayed in poor countries like Columbia, tens of thousands of young children are being sexually abused and trafficked right here in our own borders every day, begging for help, with their voices falling on deaf ears. And it is all "legal," because it is being done under the color of law in our nation's child welfare system. One of those cases actually made the corporate news this week, but was obviously drowned out by all the hype behind the Sound of Freedom movie. A jury in New Mexico awarded $485 million to an 8-year-old female victim of Clarence Garcia, a 66-year-old foster parent in New Mexico who sexually abused the girl while she was in his care. As horrible as this crime was, Garcia had been sexually abusing young children in his care as far back as 1999 when he was licensed as a foster parent in New Mexico, and pleaded guilty to charges of sexually abusing six girls in his care in January this year (2023). But in spite of the fact that he admitted his crimes and was now a convicted pedophile, he was NOT sentenced to do any jail or prison time, but simply given probation, where he reportedly continued his crimes resulting in the conviction earlier this week of the 8-year-old girl.
