Alison Segal and Emily Rebar were on duty when Gabriel Fernandez was admitted to Antelope Valley Hospital in Los Angeles. The eight-year-old later succumbed to the injuries he sustained during the sickening catalogue of abuse from Pearl Fernandez and Isauro Aguirre. The evil pair, who have both been jailed, subjected the defenceless youngster to the attacks because they thought he was gay.
