SACHSE, Texas – Publication Honk News has reported on a deeply troubling incident, where a former daycare worker at By the Barnyard Gate daycare in Sachse, Texas, has been charged with indecency with a child following claims of sexual abuse. The Button Law Firm represents the victim's family in their pursuit of justice.
What Happened at This North Texas Daycare?
According to the article, the case came to light on January 6, 2023, when the mother of the 4-year-old boy reported to Sachse Police what her son had told her. Police detailed that 19-year-old Efrain Jesus Bonilla, the accused, has been charged with one count of indecency with child sexual contact. Although Bonilla is currently out on bond, the legal proceedings continue as the case unfolds.
Holding By the Barnyard Gate Sachse Accountable
The family has filed a lawsuit against the daycare, saying that surveillance footage captured the horrifying moment when the caregiver sexually abused the child. The lawsuit, initiated on June 10, seeks damages for the pain and suffering endured by the young victim and his family.
Russell Button of The Button Law Firm, representing the family, highlighted the gravity of the situation and the evidence captured on the daycare's surveillance system. "This caregiver comes over, blocks the camera view from looking at what’s going on with his hands, warms up his hands, positions the child, sticks his hand down into his private areas, and grabs his privates," Button stated.
Adding to the family's anguish, an investigation by the Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) concluded on January 10, 2023, finding that a child in the care of By the Barnyard Gate had indeed been mistreated. The state's findings highlight the need for stricter supervision and accountability in childcare facilities to prevent such tragic incidents.
