Jaime was the first born son to Teresa R. and Rafael N. Escamilla, on June 14, 1956. Jaime immigrated to the United States with his parents and 3 younger siblings from Irapuato, Guanajuato, Mexico at the young age of 12. Jaime grew up in Placentia, California, graduated from Valencia High School in 1975, and went on to study Computer Technology at Fullerton Community College.

After some years, Jaime changed careers and became a Caretaker of the elderly, and also provided ride services to many people throughout Orange County and neighboring counties. During the late 1980's, Jaime met and was engaged to Maria and her 2-year old daughter, Yvette. Jaime took on the role of an active and loving father-figure for Yvette. Although Jaime and Maria called off the wedding, they stayed friends and Jaime remained active in helping raise Yvette like a daughter. Jaime remained a significant father-figure to Yvette until his death.
