Authorities say a woman who is both aunt and foster mother to a
3-year-old child found dead in Santa Maria has been arrested for
investigation of murder.
Santa Maria police said Friday that 27-year-old Sylvia Marie Dominguez
was arrested on suspicion of murder and willful infliction of injury to
a child causing great bodily injury or death.
Police Lt. Dan Ast said emergency crews responded to a report that the
boy — Gilbert Dominguez — was not breathing.
He was pronounced dead soon after rescue workers arrived. A criminal
investigation was opened because of injuries on the boy’s body.
Three other children in Dominguez’s care were put in the custody of
child welfare services.
