This is the same story from the other day. Another article. The comments are unbelievable.
The judge needs to be removed. There is so much evidence of this guys plot to kill, and to top it off it seems his friends and family may have helped.
If you want a story to publicize the problems, this one shouldn't be ignored. FYI-he had no arrests for dv or abuse.
Not every guy like this will kill, but there sure as hell will make mom's life and the child's life a living hell and do everything they can to take the child from the mom.

I am so angry.. I knew this guy, I went to school with him! The mother tried to protect her child and look what happened! She had so much proof that Stephen was a danger to Wyatt. I posted this link on my FB page, and I was attacked by a "friend" of Stephen's. This person also refuses to read the website or Stephen's facebook page. This guy put all of his stuff out there, he made a special website http://www.Detrimentalind.com he posted it on his FB page http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#/StephenKatieWyatt?v=wall&ref=search
All the proof is right there and no one helped saved the baby, someone even went as far in assisting in the murder! That person who posted the suicide letters had to have known what Stephen was going to do, and instead of helping save the baby he/she helped kill the child.
I wish that when FB suggested I become "friends" with Stephen I would have done it, because I know that if I would have seen those posts I would have been on the phone calling some police or doing whatever I could to stop it and have that guy committed... but the system couldn't even listen to the mother, so I don't think I would have gotten anywhere

Pinon Hills man plans murder of infant son, suicide on Facebook

In a chilling letter posted on Facebook for anyone to see, Stephen Garcia, 25, of Pinon Hills appears to detail how he planned his suicide and the murder of his 9-month-old son.
“I led everyone on my side of the family to believe I wouldn’t of done this because I did not want them to know...” the letter reads. “I had been thinking about doing this for months.”
The post may help San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Homicide investigators piece together what led to the Sunday morning tragedy, when Garcia took his infant son during a court-ordered visitation, drove to a dirt road in Twin Peaks and ended both of their lives.
In the letter posted to his Facebook profile, Garcia claimed the deaths were an attempt to save his son from a difficult life — and to punish the baby’s mother, Katie Tagle, for refusing to come back to him.
“Our deaths are a lot for her,” the post continues. “It will have to suffice as her punishment. But that is not the reason I did it. It was the only way we could be happy without Katie. I did this out of love for our son, to protect him and myself.”
Saved letters, text messages and massive files containing e-mails and other correspondence give a glimpse into Garcia’s obsession, cursing Tagle and her family in some posts and asking her to return to him in others.
Court documents tell more of the story, with Tagle filing a request for a domestic violence restraining order on Dec. 11, 2009. On Jan. 12 that order was denied, as it was found Garcia was not a “threat to petitioner or the minor child.”
A search of his criminal record showed no history of domestic violence, battery or similar offenses in San Bernardino County. However, in one of a slew of other online letters attributed to Garcia, it states, “I’m sorry for hurting you. I’m sorry for hitting you. I’m sorry I made the wrong choices.”
On Jan. 17, shortly after the final visit with Judge David Mazurek, Garcia joined a Facebook group called “Organ Donor.”
In the days leading up to the murder-suicide, Garcia posted a half-dozen videos and dozens of photos of Wyatt with cryptic captions such as, “Please, it’s not too late.”
On his MySpace page, his mood over the last week was listed as “tested,” “bummed” and “scared,” with “one more day :(” his final post.
Hours before officials got a call Saturday night that Wyatt was missing and Garcia had threatened to kill him, he made his final online post: “We love you all.”
The suicide note was posted on Garcia’s Facebook profile Sunday, about eight hours after Hesperia Sheriff’s deputies found the bodies in Garcia’s car. It appears Garcia left directions for someone to post the letter and make it public for everyone to see.
The lengthy post also reads as a will, with directions for how to distribute his possessions and personal notes to family members and friends. It also states that Garcia left a signed letter in his truck, confessing to the killings and explaining why he did them.
Though Garcia mentions using a gun, investigators have not released information on how he killed Wyatt and himself, stating only that they both died from “traumatic injuries.”
Anyone who may have information about this case is asked to call Detective Ryan Ford or Sgt. Frank Montanez at the Sheriff’s Homicide Detail at (909) 387-3589 or call WeTip at (800) 78-CRIME.
