A Los Angeles father pleaded guilty Tuesday to stabbing his three sons to death inside the family’s car five years ago. As part of the plea, Fuentes admitted to using a knife to kill his boys, ages 11, 9 and 8, according to the L.A. County district attorney’s office. The records detailed child protection workers’ dealings with Fuentes and portray the financial pressure and grief he faced after the boys’ mother died in 2008. Over the years, the county had received anonymous calls that accused Fuentes of abusing the boys. “I made a mistake,” he told caseworkers at the time, according to records.
