$1 million arrest warrants have been issued for Martin Roland Morales (aka “Bullet”), 32, and Crystal Pauline Rodriguez, 28, who disappeared after they were contacted by authorities investigating reports of child abuse, according to San Bernardino County Sheriff’s spokeswoman Arden Wiltshire. Authorities believe the couple may be in Los Angeles county.

The boy’s mother and a 16 year old roommate were arrested in August after an anonymous tip was called in to the county’s child abuse hotline.

Sheriff’s deputies say the boy was burned with heated spoons and a glue gun, as well as deprived of food and water. The child was also sexually molested by Morales and other Males at an Apple Valley residence where Morales and Rodriguez were living, investigators say. He has been placed in foster care.

One handgun was recovered from the residence, and several other firearms are still outstanding.

Morales is an Eastlake Gang member, deputies said, and gave his brother’s name during the initial investigation to avoid arrest.

He told investigators he would “shoot it out” with law enforcement if they tried to arrest him, and is considered armed and dangerous.

Morales is described as a Hispanic male about 5’11″ and 280 pounds. He has tattoos of his daughters’ names on the left and ride side of his head and praying hands on the back of his head.

Rodriguez is a Hispanic female about 5’01″ and 130 pounds.

Anyone with information regarding the suspects was asked to contact the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department at (909) 709-7103 or (951) 318-3786.
