Raul Salinas was aired on the December 27th, 2008 episode of America's Most Wanted. Cops say he befriended a mother and father and convinced them to let him babysit their daughters while they went to work. With that unfettered access, he relentlessly raped them.
Unfortunately the full archive is now gone but I do have a partial story description from inarchive.com:
"When Raul Salinas left the family in 2004 he was secure in the knowledge that he had gotten away with crimes against two defenseless children. But cops say he didn't anticipate the strength and fortitude of his young victims. Finally secure that the man who they say had threatened to kill them if they told anyone about his nighttime visits to their bedrooms was gone, the young girls trusted a relative with their haunting secret. In March 2007 cops say two young girls ravaged with fear and choked with emotion bravely recounted their harrowing story of verbal threats physical and sexual abuse at the hands of Salinas to police and social workers.
According to the girls who were then six and eight Salinas would enter their bedrooms at night while they were sleeping and rape them When the young girls tried to resist cops say he threatened them saying "Don't make me kill you." According to the then 8 year old girl in one incident Salinas beat her about the legs and rear with a belt then followed her to her bedroom. He then pushed her against a wall and onto the bed before raping her.
Cops describe Salinas as a smooth talker who speaks English fluently and without an accent. Detectives say he always wants to be the center of attention and is the type of guy who blames everybody else for his mistakes. Authorities believe Salinas is living in Tijuana, Mexico but traveling back and forth to Ventura, California where he may be working in the pizza delivery industry. Cops also believe Salinas has returned to the Harrisburg, Pennsylvania area where his three daughters live. Salinas is described a Hispanic male with brown eyes and black hair. He stands 5'9 tall and weighs approximately 210 lbs. Cops say Salinas may be using the alias Urbieta Raul Salinas."
Thoughts? As far as I can tell Salinas is still at large as of this posting date (10/28/2015) but please let us know if you have proof otherwise. The AMW archive actually said "Tawana, Mexico" but I'm assuming that was a type-o and they meant Tijuana. I'm also assuming 2007 is when Salinas was charged since that's when the girls came forward.
Salinas is said to blame others for his mistakes so I'd love to see him caught and explain how it's anyone's fault but has for allegedly repeatedly raping two underage girls.
