SAN BERNARDINO - A San Bernardino man stabbed his wife and children repeatedly, beat them with a monkey wrench, forced them to walk on broken glass and threatened to set them on fire during an 11-hour ordeal that left the family's oldest son dead, according to surviving family members.
A police report, filed Friday, describes what happened when two days earlier, Ian Anthony Roderiquez allegedly attacked his wife, Sujal, 35, and his five children - Richard, 16; Jacob, 13; Gabriel, 12; Daniella, 10; and Yasmine, 8.
Richard was pronounced dead at the scene - one that shocked even a veteran homicide detective.
"It's one of the worst scenes I've ever seen," said Sgt. Don Lupear, who prepared the report.
Gabriel told investigators that his father began beating his family with a monkey wrench about 10 p.m. on March 22 and accused them of stealing his drugs, according to the report.
Sheriff's deputies first made contact with Ian Roderiquez, 35, after they responded to a 9-1-1 call made by a neighbor at 9:15 a.m. the next day.
Roderiquez allegedly refused to open his front door, but he broke the front window to his home using a pair of hedge clippers.
Deputies took him into custody - in handcuffs - after a short negotiation.
They then entered the Roderiquez home, navigating around the sofa and mattress barricading the front door. The deputies made their way to the home's garage.
That's where they found Roderiquez's wife and children - all bleeding or dead.
Sujal Roderiquez was suffering from several stab wounds and lying on a twin bed box spring, according to Lupear's report. Four of the Roderiquez children - Jacob, Gabriel, Daniella, and Yasmine - were suffering from blunt-force trauma wounds.
Deputies took the four children to the home's living room, where they cared for them until paramedics arrived.
The children told the deputies to go back to the garage and check on Richard.
Deputies found Richard laying on the garage floor, underneath a car seat. He was covered with blood and appeared to be dead, according to Lupear's report.
When paramedics arrived, they pronounced Richard dead.
When coroner's investigators examined Richard's body, he had "numerous" injuries, according to the report.
He had a possible broken lower leg, numerous cut and stab wounds all over his body and legs, blunt-force trauma to his left hand and multiple skull fractures, according to the report.
Gabriel told investigators that Roderiquez attacked Richard with the monkey wrench, according to the report.
Coroner's investigator Marline Layva, told detectives about 12:30 p.m. on March 23 that she believed Richard had been dead from 10 to 18 hours.
The four surviving children all gave testimony to investigators, describing the horror dealt to them by their father.
Daniella and Yasmine told investigators that Roderiquez forced them to walk barefoot on broken glass, according to the report. When Daniella refused to lay down in the glass, he poured bleach on her and threatened to set her on fire.
Yasmine and Daniella both said their father beat them with a metal pipe.
Investigators later searched the Roderiquez home and found a 12 1/2-inch stainless steel pipe, covered in blood, according to the report. The pipe was hidden in a cloth bag.
Gabriel told investigators that his father used "shears" to stab his mother and he bludgeoned her with the monkey wrench.
Sujal Roderiquez was able only to give a brief statement to investigators before she was taken into surgery. She told them her husband had beat her and stabbed her.
Sheriff's investigators interviewed Ian Roderiquez March 23, according to the report.
When he entered the interview room, he told investigators that his children were "thieves and liars."
Deputies read him his Miranda rights and he requested a lawyer, and the interview ended.
But when he was being photographed, Ian kept talking, according to the report.
He said his wife was responsible for the injuries his family members sustained. He said when he left his home to speak with the deputies, all of his family members "were okay and standing up."
Roderiquez said his wife was trying to frame him and injured herself by striking a bed post and a bed frame with her body.
Sujal is still in critical condition at Loma Linda University Medical Center.
Daniella and Yasmine were released from the hospital Wednesday night to the custody of Child and Family Services.
Jacob and Gabriel are still hospitalized.
Investigators plan to reinterview Sujal Roderiquez and the four surviving children when their injuries permit. They have been cooperative but investigators are trying not to push them further than they are able to go, Lupear said.
"We're still continuing the investigation but we have to take our time," he said. "The family is not only injured but they're traumatized as well."
Roderiquez pleaded not guilty Friday to one count of murder, one count of attempted murder, four counts of torture, and four counts of child abuse.
He is on suicide watch at West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga. He is held without bail.
He is due in court Wednesday for a confirmation-of-counsel hearing.
