Dastardly Dads: (TUCSON, AZ) FATHER LUIS SOBERANES Kidnaps Child, Father Remains On The Loose

Contrary to fathers' rights propaganda, father perpetrators (along with stepdads and caretaker boyfrends) dominate the most vicious crimes against children: sexual assault, abusive head trauma, murder-suicides, crimes involving gun violence, and other similar forms of physically violent/fatal child abuse. And as more dads are providing child care (either because mom is working and can't find other care, or because dads are increasingly getting unsupervised visitation/custody through the family courts), more dads are are being found guilty of basic child abuse and neglect as well.

10/25/15 -Because of severe time constraints, we are no longer able to do regular updates at Dastardly Dads. We will occasionally post articles on general studies on child abuse/domestic violence, news pieces involving abusive fathers in custody/visitation situations. We wil also be updating the Killer Dads and Custody lists, while looking for a better, more accessible platform for the data.

7/11/16 - We started this blog on June 24, 2009--just over seven years. And like all good things, it's time to bring this project to a close. It has served its purpose. We have close to 10,500 postings regarding fathers and child abuse, with hundred of those cases being enabled by the family courts, social services, and others in authority. The documentation is clear. It is now time to stop documenting and put that energy into changing the situation that puts thousands of mothers and children at risk every day.

TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) -

The Pima County Sheriff's Department says King Gomez, 2 has been found safe, and two of the six suspects are now in custody.

Deputy Tom Peine says the suspect, Luis Soberanes, heard about the news coverage and contacted Sheriff's detectives. He revealed the child's location and the boy was found safe.

Luis Soberanes is still on the loose. Anyone with information on his whereabouts is urged to call 911 or 88-CRIME.

According to Peine, Gomez was taken at about 11 a.m. yesterday by his father, Soberanes, who had with him the boy's grandmother, Guadelupe Legarda, his aunt, Fernanda Mendoza, and three unidentified men.

According to a news release from the Sheriff's department, Legarda and Mendoza are now in custody. Authorities were still working to identify the three other men.

Also in the news release, Soberanes detained the boyfriend against his will while one of the other men picked up the child, who was sleeping in another room, and handed him to Mendoza before they all left.

An Amber Alert was not issued because authorities didn't believe Soberanes would harm his son.

Soberanes, 24, is however considered dangerous because of a violent past, Peine said.

If you see the suspect, do not approach him, but call 911 immediately.
