Overview
- Police executed a search warrant at 250 32nd Ave. on Nov. 6 and prosecutors announced on Nov. 10 that 42-year-old Diana Peng faces four felonies and four misdemeanors tied to the raid.
- Officers seized a .38-caliber revolver, ammunition, methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia and Animal Care & Control removed seven dogs that officials described as neglected.
- Peng was arraigned and released under monitoring and conditions reported to include an ankle monitor, drug testing, warrantless searches and a requirement to stay at least 150 yards from the Sea Cliff property.
- The criminal case is separate from a civil lawsuit filed by City Attorney David Chiu that alleges Peng and Brandon Aadee used forged or altered deed recordings to claim a roughly $4.4 million Sea Cliff house.
- The property has more than $345,000 in unpaid taxes and is slated for a Dec. 22 tax auction, a process that could change ownership even as the city pursues civil and criminal investigations and neighbors press for lasting safety and animal-welfare remedies.
