The father of , the man charged in the disappearance of Sierra LaMar, has been ordered to stand trial for multiple sexual assault charges.
A judge has ordered Genaro Garcia Fernandez, 51, to go on trial on charges that he molested his daughter for nine years, an investigator with the Santa Clara County Sexual Crimes Unit told KCBS.
Fernandez was taken into custody last July after his daughter stepped forward, alleging he had molested her numerous times, beginning when she was five years old in 1990.
The young woman said that the molestations continued until she was 14 years old.
Her brother, Antolin Garcia-Torres, was charged last month for the murder and killing of Sierra LaMar, 15, following her disappearance on March 16.
Despite , LaMar’s body has not been found.

two .did she remained in home. sad as helll!!!!! i am so confused. this makes no sense. where was mom .to pro tect her from brother and father. say i got it wrong!!
Pete "he saw daddy do it so now he does it. No one got caught till now so he never learned as a kid it was wrong so he needs to stop." He is an adult and by now should know it is wrong. As a teen he would know it is wrong. He made the choice so I cannot totally fault the father. There is Megan's list. You might be surprised how many molesters are in your neighborhood. Also, my personal believe is that you are NEVER cured of being a molester. This is really my opinion. I know CURED is a strong word but it is the best one to fit what I am trying to say. This is Randy's opinion
And yes as a teen and adult he did know better, but it was too late. The sexual deviance had been hardwired into his personality, it had become part of who he was. I doubt (i could be wrong) that he never sought professional help to deal with these feelings so that is why he acts out the way he does on these girls (I say that because he is a suspect in more then just LaMar) - He knows it is wrong, he just dont care or cant help it. And from what I understand something like that is not like a oil job and just come back in 6 months. It is a daily struggle, just like anything else in life. Now note, I dont condone his actions. But I can see now the big pattern and I understand it better as more info comes to light.
There ARE more abusers who do come from abusive, one sort or another, families or foster, or severe religious restrictive upbringings. The numbers do not lie.
I know of someone that right now is on FACEBOOK. He is listed on megan's law and I know what he did. He molested two sisters ages 5 and 6. He received 1 year in jail and has to register as a sex offender. Oh, one of his "CAUSES" on Facebook, he supports and tries to "counsel" victims of child molestation. Oh, report him you say. Well, it has been done to no avail. So to me, we need stronger laws. This is RANDY'S OPINION. Peter peter... how do you know if I am male or female.. (just joking there Pete old boy)
Im sorry such a horrific thing had happenend to you. But I make no apologies as to what I said. I stated that and I quote myself "Kids whom were molested or exposed to such sexual things as children ALMOST ALWAYS grow up to be pedophiles too. Its a fact, goggle it. IT IS A CYCLE THAT THE VICTIM MUST BREAK, a vicious cycle." *ALMOST ALWAYS = not everyone, just like u said about yerself (but with billions of people in the world, some are gonna go the other way also)* Im glad you were able to walk away and were able to take back yer life, lots of people this happens to can't or won't deal with it or just dont know how. Im sure you had took steps and found support to ease and come to terms with these horrible things that had happen to you. So you did what you needed to do, YOU BROKE THE VICIOUS CYCLE. Its like if Dad is a lush, if you are not careful and make a real daily conscience effort you might be end up a lush too. So, I stand by what I said and I also hope that you and yours might continue to share yer strength with others like you who might not be as strong as you were able to be. God bless.
My prayers are for God to give the family peace.
Although, the Title of the Article may give a misdirection...the article itself is Direct. I was going to say 'very' direct...but, then if so many miss the point maybe the writer should have written shorter sentences and broken the paragraphs down to smaller bytes? Taken just from the Article: The Father of The Alleged kidnapper/murder Antolin Garcia-Torres, Genaro Garcia Fernandez, was arrested for molesting his daughter. It has nothing to do with the Le Mar case, at least not directly. No allegations were directed about anything with Sierra Le Mar. As far as race or illegality of their being here? It is too below the common sense, let alone intelligence, of most people to comment further.
This is Pete's opinion, and it is a good one! hah
