School officials repeatedly alerted Child Protective Services of their suspicions that three adopted children of a day care owner were being abused and neglected several years before they were found last week bruised and malnourished.
"The principal recalls being very concerned about the safety of these children (Diablo 3 Gold), and that was expressed" to CPS, said Pascual Gonzalez, spokesman for Northside Independent School District. "Multiple visits were made to the school by CPS social workers."
The children, one now 8 and fraternal twins age 10, sporadically attended Scarborough Elementary, missing months at a time after they arrived in 2008, he added.
The Children's Shelter, which provided services to the children for six months in 2009, also reported to CPS when one child missed 60 days of school one year.
Neighbors in the couple's Northwest Side subdivision said for years they had thought the behavior of Tim (Diablo 3 Gold), Iliana and Rogelio Archuleta was unusual and secretive, but were shocked by allegations that the children were abused and neglected.
The 10-year-old girl told investigators last week that she and her two siblings were being starved, beaten, punished for stealing food, locked in closets and forced to bite each others' toes, after which they were made to pour bleach on the wounds, according to the arrest warrant affidavit.
They were made to sleep in the bathtub, she said, with the sliding door locked and only a bucket for their wastes.
They sometimes were made to eat butter and drink water until they vomited (Diablo 3 Gold), and then were forced to eat the vomit as well, she said.
