An 80-year-old Chula Vista man who fled to Mexico to avoid capture was arrested for alleged sexual abuse of a Murrieta minor. In December 2021, the Murrieta Police Department began investigating the possible sexual abuse of a minor by a family member after the abuse was reported to the Riverside County Department of Public Social Services.
A judge is scheduled to decide today whether a Murrieta man charged with second-degree murder and drunken driving in a fatal Palm Springs crash will have to stand trial.
