A Mexican family has been jailed for gouging out the eyes of their
five-year-old relative with a spoon during a satanic ritual to bring
about the end of the world.
Fernando Caleb Alvarado Rios was ordered to close his eyes out of respect with his mother, grandparents, aunt and uncles as they danced in a circle and called on Satan to reveal himself.
But when he was too scared to do so, his mother, Maria del Carmen Garcia Rios, grabbed a spoon and the entire group gouged them out.They were caught when neighbours, who had heard loud chanting, came to investigate and saw the child screaming in pain.
Today, more than two years after the incident in May 2012, a court has sentenced the group to 30 years each in jail.

the family were devout and deeply religious, but had not realised that
they were Satanists.
