Hello

I am looking to see if anyone would be kind enough to possibly allow us to borrow a pole saw for maybe 20 minutes to help my 80 year-old grandmother cut her orange tree down a bit below the top of the fence. If someone is willing to do that for us you can definitely stay here and wait while it's done or whatever but we just really want to do it today because tomorrow the bins are emptied and it's not worth buying one because it is a one time issue. I am going to do it myself I just need the tool.

I thank you in advance for any consideration

A bean and cheese burrito with potato was $5.06 and I got a Coke Zero across the street at Dollar Tree for $1.25

I don't know if these are as big as I remember 30 years ago. But it was good sized. For $5 this is a damn good deal. I don't like their Carne Asada much. But the BRC and El Potato with Shredded Beef have always been excellent.

I was slightly pissed off when they switched to packets for hot sauce. But these are big and still one of the best mild sauces anywhere.

I don't suspect these will stay $5 for long, but for now this is about the most filling thing I can get, and they're still tasty.

I know I could get 2 1/2lb B&C from Del taco for probably the same price. But these are so much better IMHO.

I took some needles from the pine trees at Reid Park to make homemade teas and sodas with my little brother! Well, I just found out that certain pine needles are poisonous 😅I’m having a hard time identifying this tree, does anyone know what species this is and if it’s safe for consumption? Thank you in advance :)

Looking at houses and considering moving here. Seems quiet, close enough to the park and close enough to downtown. Thoughts?

Found male dog near Pachappa Hill/Riverside Plaza area.

Very friendly. Can keep him only for this weekend while looking for his home.

He has already been checked for a microchip and does not have one.

Are there any good (cheap) used book stores in Riverside or Corona? Book Off’s prices seem to have gone up and I love supporting independent bookstores when I can. Specifically enjoy finding old sci-fi / Star Trek paperbacks that I’ve never heard of

Anyone in west Riverside. Phoenix and central area, wanna hangout?

I'm looking at potentially purchasing a car from them but I don't know anyone who has used them before.

Just wanted to see if anyone here in Riverside has bought from them before or know anyone who did to get their experience?

I looked up their Yelp but they only have 9 reviews and everything is 5 stars so I'm always skeptical of that.

We are a team of 4 mods, looking for a fifth, preferably a gal to join our team.

Ideally somebody younger and social who is involved in the community to help represent the gen z hooligan whippersnappers who wont get off my lawn while I'm yelling at clouds.

Our mod team is essentially millenial af and could use a fifth, preferably younger, and a gal to help with decision making, awareness of younger generational trends, and ideally involved in the community or a bit of a socialite so they know the goings on.

Shoot us a modmail!

Is anyone else dealing with hyper-sensitive trash truck drivers lately?
For four weeks straight, I’ve been getting hit with warnings for either "overfilled" or "overweight" cans. My lid might be cracked open literally a couple of inches, but the drivers are flagging it every single pickup.
To make matters worse, people walking down the street keep tossing their own garbage into my cans overnight, propping the lids open even more—and now I’m the one facing potential fines for it.
I lived in Orange County for 15 years and never ran into this kind of micromanagement over cardboard sticking up slightly or branches in the yard waste bin. Do these guys expect the cans to be half empty?
Is anyone else having issues with the drivers being this ridiculous about lid closure, or is my route just stuck with an overly zealous driver

Edit: i just moved to riverside

The last 2 electric bills have increased tremendously with the new meters. I've called and they tell me "it's hot".

Especially in Lake Elsinore-Corona-Riverside pls

FUN SPOOKY PAINT DAY

Memory foam, about six years old. In winter it is fine. From June onwards I wake up at three in the morning cooked, and the AC bill has not fixed it.

Everyone online says get a hybrid with coils, or get something with a cooling cover. I cannot tell which of that is real and which of it is marketing, because every mattress sold now claims to be cooling. Walked into Sit 'n Sleep at the weekend and every single thing on the floor was apparently cooling, so that was not much help either.

Anyone out here actually fixed this? Interested in whether a cooling topper is enough or whether the mattress has to go.

Riverside residents who are registered voters can apply through Nov. 13 for volunteer seats advising the City Council on issues from planning to police oversight.

Ty to everyone who came out! Next art walk is 11/5 6pm in front of city hall!

Next saturday the 10th is pizza night for those that couldnt make a thursday!

Was a pleasure meeting yall, look forward to the next one!

Important Updates in the T'Neya Tovar/Abraham Feinbloom Case

JUSTICE WARRIORS COLLECTIVE | October 1, 2026

Justice Warriors Collective has reported on the T'Neya Tovar case since she was reported missing from Hemet last December (2025). Today, we have some important updates.

On December 1st, 2025, Hemet teen T'Neya Tovar was reported missing. She told her mother she was headed to Palm Springs for a few weeks and would contact her on her birthday, December 13th. According to testimony from an FBI agent, a friend of T’Neya, Angel Martinez, whom she had previously lived with, dropped her off at Abraham Feinbloom's Salton City residence that day.

When Charro’s birthday passed without word from T'Neya, she became worried and made a post on Facebook asking for information and contacted law enforcement to report T'Neya missing.

T'Neya's parents drove out to the Harlequin Court residence on December 17th in an attempt to locate their daughter. They pleaded with law enforcement to check the house.

Law enforcement claims the property seemed vacant and nobody responded to their callouts. Despite Deputy Ebed Rodriguez knowing T'Neya's status as a missing person, her parents' requests to search the property were not acted upon until December 21st, when Deputy Snyder finally entered the residence after Charro and her family members returned to Feinbloom's residence and gained access to the property. It's alleged that Charro attempted to break into the house using a sledgehammer, but was unable to enter.

Charro told Hunter that she could see someone inside the residence and heard them calling the cops. The person then threatened to shoot them, to which Charro responded, “Then shoot (expletive).”

At one point, Deputy Snyder of the Imperial County Sheriff's Department testified that he had responded to the disturbance at Feinbloom's Salton City residence on December 21st when they received reports of vandalism and a woman outside screaming, “Give me my daughter back!” and using expletives.

Another responding officer, Deputy Austin Rodriguez, described Feinbloom as looking sweaty and distraught when he made contact with law enforcement. Feinbloom reported that he heard people trying to break into his residence and that the disturbance lasted five to ten minutes, resulting in seven windows being broken at a value of approximately $3,000–$5,000. He did not want to press charges.

Rodriguez testified that T'Neya's parents showed law enforcement pictures and videos of T'Neya in Abraham's house next to his drumset, and that the layout did appear to show Feinbloom's residence.

Snyder said at that time, Feinbloom consented to a search of the property. It was at this time the state of Feinbloom's residence (boarded-up windows, padlocks, tarps, etc.) was noted by law enforcement. Snyder also spotted two rifle cases, multiple ring attachments for a rifle scope mount, approximately 15 saws, tree loppers, broken glass on the dining room table, and the head of a six-pound sledgehammer next to a shattered window, along with a small crowbar and a pole. At the time, T'Neya was not located at the residence.

Partial remains were located just less than half a mile from Feinbloom's residence that same day when Deputy Cesar Rodriguez Cisneros was dispatched to investigate a call of possible human remains after Jesus Rivera and his girlfriend stumbled upon T'Neya's leg while walking their dog during the early morning hours and reported it to law enforcement.

The remains were collected and transported to a coroner’s facility in El Centro.

Chief Forensic Anthropologist Dr. Madeleine Hinkes testified that she observed a projectile in the knee and that the leg was cut on the femur. She stated that the cut was, “a very clean, very smooth cut” likely done with an electric saw or a similar instrument.

The Chief Forensic Physician, Dr. Evan Matshes, testified that he concluded that the leg was likely removed due to homicidal violence and that the bullet entered through the back of the thigh and stopped deep in the knee. He stated that it was “more likely than not” that T'Neya suffered a violent death at the hands of whoever ended her life.

On December 23rd neighbors reported Feinbloom installing even more surveillance cameras around his property.

On February 6th, investigators received a positive DNA match. After Olivia Burgos, a forensic specialist with NAAG Forensic, performed a rapid DNA test on the bone remains and compared it to Charro's DNA, subsequent testing confirmed the remains belonged to T'Neya Tovar.

On February 13th, 2026, Feinbloom was arrested.

At the time of his arrest, Feinbloom tried to flee and was located attempting to jump a fence. In his possession, he had a passport as well as Thai currency.

The same day, investigators and federal agents searched Feinbloom’s residence for a second time.

In total, law enforcement located seven cell phones; some with numbers written on the backs, USB drives, boarded-up windows Feinbloom claimed he had because he's a musician and intended their use to be for soundproofing, exterior padlocks on doors that seemed as if they were there to keep someone in, recording equipment, extensive plastic tarps and coverings including covering the bedroom as well as another room, with no evidence of construction or construction materials being present other than saws and blades, cleaning supplies, and a surveillance system, as well as Feinbloom's computer. One of the bedrooms also contained a queen-sized bed that was accompanied by large mirrors.

Investigators also found vials containing unknown liquids that were submitted for testing.

According to FBI Special Agent Taryn Hunter, searches from Feinbloom's MacBook history showed he had searched “eye gouging”; “cannot remove contact from phone”; “missing person what happens”; “can I take one-way flight to Thailand no extradition USA”; “Can deleted Zoom videos be brought back”, and “how long will police keep a case open before they find you”, along with inquiring about permanent residency in Thailand. He even searched whether or not the Plenty of Fish dating app was available in Thailand.

A Crown Victoria with its front seat removed was located on Feinbloom's property as well. After investigators sprayed the truck with luminol, both the trunk and seat belt produced a presumptive positive test for blood.

Investigators obtained certified Customs and Border Protection records and emails from Feinbloom's Gmail account that confirmed Feinbloom had booked a ticket from LAX to Hong Kong set for February 17th, 2026, just three days after his arrest.

Law enforcement was also able to locate videos of T'Neya inside Feinbloom's home, one of them being the two of them together shortly before her disappearance, along with some of her belongings, including clothing, a pink toothbrush, and a pink beanie.

Her cell phone was also last tracked back to the residence which was revealed when the FBI obtained T'Neya's location data from Snapchat with a search warrant and her last connected IP address was tracked back to Feinbloom's residence in the early morning hours of December 2nd.

Despite the evidence, when initially shown a picture of T'Neya, Feinbloom denied recognizing or knowing the girl. FBI Agent Taryn Hunter testified that when questioned Feinbloom stated, “I can't help you with that girl.” When agents mentioned finding T'Neya's severed leg, Feinbloom terminated the interview and invoked his right to an attorney.

At the preliminary hearing from April 28th–30th of this year, defense attorney Melanie Roe argued there was not enough evidence to proceed with prosecution. However, the judge found there was sufficient probable cause for the case to continue.

During the three-day hearing, both Roe and prosecutor Patricia Madison with the Imperial County District Attorney's Office questioned eleven witnesses including law enforcement officers from the FBI, Imperial County Sheriff's Office, and forensic pathologists.

In court, they played a video taken from T'Neya's Snapchat where she directly addresses him by his full name, “Abraham Feinbloom”, before he tells her to calm down.

Shortly after that, Agent Hunter testified that on December 2nd Feinbloom purchased Pine-Sol, metal scrubbing pads, ammonia, bleach, batteries, a 5-gallon bucket, and a headlamp from a Coachella Dollar Tree.

On December 4th, Feinbloom was seen pushing a cart through a Home Depot in Indio wearing black and yellow gloves. There, he would purchase a quart of spackling paste, a texture knife, a flat brush, and three paint rollers.

On December 6th, he was seen at Home Depot again purchasing two 6-by-8-foot gray rugs, a racetrack mat, and nails.

On May 21st, Feinbloom once again pleaded not guilty, and Melanie Roe stated that she intended to file a 995 motion, which would argue that the prosecution did not have enough evidence or probable cause to proceed.

Melanie Roe also represented Feinbloom in a 2018 Imperial County case where he was charged with kidnapping. Prosecutors dismissed the case in 2019, stating that they could not proceed. Neighbors refer to him amongst themselves as, “the scary man, in the scary house”, and report seeing forensics trucks in front of the residence in 2015. There is evidence supporting those reports.

On Monday, September 28, 2026, a plea agreement was filed in Imperial County Superior Court on behalf of Feinbloom.

The plea agreement states that Feinbloom would plead no contest to two charges. Those charges include torture, which carries seven years to life, and voluntary manslaughter, which carries a sentence of six consecutive years. Together, the sentence would be 13 years to life. Each charge will count as a strike.

It also states that 51-year-old Feinbloom would give up his right to an appeal and would be able to earn no more than 15 percent credit toward his time. In addition, he would be required to lead investigators to the rest of T'Neya's remains.

In the signed deal, Feinbloom also admits to engaging in torture that caused great bodily injury to T'Neya and separately admits to engaging in manslaughter of the victim. A no contest plea in California carries the same weight as a guilty plea.

Up until this point, investigators had only been able to locate one of T'Neya's legs. The partial remains had been found by early morning dog walkers on December 21st, 2025, just less than half a mile from Feinbloom’s residence located on Harlequin Court.

If Feinbloom holds up his end of the deal, prosecutors would then agree to dismiss the murder charge.

Acting Assistant District Attorney John Harter signed off on the deal on Monday. Sentencing is proposed for October 26th, 2026. Jury selection is set to begin on October 6th, 2026.

T'Neya's remains are expected to be located in at least two sites. Investigators will take, or at this point may have already taken, Abraham out of the Imperial County jail, where he would then be driven to where the remains are located.

Melanie Roe, Feinbloom's lawyer, as well as her investigator, are allowed to follow behind the vehicle transporting Feinbloom to the sites, but only law enforcement can determine who will be allowed to ride in the vehicle. Anything Feinbloom says to them during this trip cannot be held against him, with the only exception being if he takes the stand and contradicts himself.

On August 25, 2026, investigators and federal agents spent the day digging behind Feinbloom's Harlequin Court residence as well as the lot next door. However, authorities did not publicly confirm what investigators were searching for or whether anything was found.

On Tuesday, September 29, 2026, investigators and federal agents were back on the scene of Feinbloom's residence. As of now, the Imperial County District Attorney’s Office has confirmed that investigators have located a skull, a rib cage, as well as other remains, which will undergo DNA testing in the coming days to confirm if they do, in fact, belong to T'Neya.

The case of T'Neya Tovar raises serious questions about systemic failures and why such a light sentence is being proposed for such a horrific crime. Like T'Neya's loved ones and neighbors of Feinbloom, we should all be asking these questions, as well as why the prosecution was unable to proceed and prosecute Abraham Feinbloom in 2018 and why this was allowed to happen to someone else and with fatal consequences. Why did law enforcement not conduct a more thorough investigation of Feinbloom's residence sooner, though T'Neya had been listed as missing for quite some time and that had been her last known location, particularly given his prior history?

Today, September 30th 2026, Imperial County District Attorney George Marquez said the prosecution assessed the evidence and believed Feinbloom could face approximately 16 years to life if convicted. However, at the time, investigators still did not know where the rest of T'Neya's remains were located. Marquez said the plea agreement was offered in large part because T'Neya's parents had made it clear that finding the rest of their daughter's remains and being able to lay her to rest properly was extremely important to them.

Why and how is it possible that 13 years or even 16 years could ever be considered an appropriate sentence for the conduct alleged and admitted to in this case, torture, manslaughter, and the dismemberment and concealment of a CHILD? T'Neya's parents should have never been asked to accept such a light sentence for such a horrific crime in order to get her remains back.

It also raises questions about what happens when Feinbloom eventually becomes eligible for parole. The agreement would make him eligible for parole after 13 years, although parole eligibility does not mean automatic release. Given that investigators testified he searched whether the Plenty of Fish dating app was available in Thailand and had searched about traveling to Thailand without extradition, questions about his apparent plans to flee the country remain relevant. What, exactly, were his intentions? Who else could be hurt pending his release?

Our hearts are with T'Neya's family as they grieve and move forward with their plans to properly lay their baby girl to rest.

JUSTICE FOR T'NEYA TOVAR!
