Investigators say illegal immigrant Hector Castro beat and suffocated his 2-year-old stepdaughter and then forced a screw down her throat to make the death appear accidental, the McAllen Monitor reports. "There are no words for this,” said the police chief. “It makes you want to think about doing lots of things to this guy.
