Overview
- Riverside County prosecutors charged Jake and Rebecca Haro with murder with malice and making a false police report, seeking $1 million bail ahead of Tuesday’s arraignment.
- San Bernardino County investigators say the mother’s parking‑lot kidnapping account was disproven after contradictions in her statements.
- Search teams with cadaver dogs canvassed a Moreno Valley area near the 60 Freeway and Gilman Springs Road on Aug. 24; Jake Haro was present with detectives, and no remains were found.
- Detectives executed search warrants at the Haro home and seized a vehicle, phones and electronics for forensic analysis as the no‑body investigation proceeds.
- Riverside County is handling the case because authorities believe the killing occurred there, and child welfare officials have removed a 2‑year‑old from the home; court records show Jake Haro has a prior child‑cruelty conviction.
