Montclair man accused of sexually abusing stepdaughter
RANCHO CUCAMONGA -- A Montclair man has been arrested and charged with 20 felonies for allegedly sexually abusing his 15-year-old stepdaughter for the past year.
Juan Trujillo Barajas, 38, was arrested May 12 after his stepdaughter told police Barajas had sex with her two or three times a week the past year, including several instances where he forced her to have sex.
After his arrest, Barajas told police he never had sex with the girl, according to a police report attached to his court file.
He told investigators that the girl had been lying more frequently since she started spending more time in the past month with a new group of friends.
Barajas pleaded not guilty to criminal charges Monday in West Valley Superior Court. He remained jailed Friday in lieu of $2.5 million bail at West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga.
The girl told police that her sexual contact with Barajas began in April or May last year. Barajas would have sex with the girl while her mother and other adults who lived in their house were away, the girl told police.
They also had sex in the kitchen at a Baldwin Park Mexican restaurant, where Barajas worked as a chef and the girl worked as a waitress, the girl told police.
The girl told police that on several occasions, she threatened Barajas that she would tell her mother about his alleged abuse.
He responded by telling the girl that her mother would not believe her, and would throw her out of the house, the girl told police.
Thank you for taking turns that good sucjebt matter on the site. I ran across it on the internet. I am going to check an extra chance after you post extra aricles.
It is a conundrum whievcher way round things happen. I didn't want children, but also didn't know what I wanted to do as a career, and dithered around until both became clear in my mid-30s. I then couldn't do both at the same time, so left it up to God as to what came first, and it was a baby. However he was a baby who only lived 8 weeks after birth. Then it was hard to conceive, and I therefore didn't have living children until I was 36 and then another at 40. But neither have I had a career, and now all those longings to accomplish things, to be known, to use their skills and talents for a good purpose, to be a catalyst for change, to nurture, to create, to help and support others , as you say so eloquently, are being felt very powerfully and yet my commitment to my children's wellbeing means I can't really see myself achieving the full-time career I might otherwise have envisaged, and that is a loss to process, too.When my son died and it then took almost 2 years to conceive again, I felt and still feel strongly that I want to tell younger women not to leave it too long. Women assume that they will be fertile and that a positive pregnancy test means a live baby at the end, and those are very big assumptions which all too often do not come true. People can only make good decisions when they have full and accurate information to base them on, and if we who have been there do not pass on the information we have learned, how can other women make their decisions for the best?
