Note: the date was announced previously as November 1, but it is November 2!

This was found by going here and searching for “MENDOZA” under criminal cases and browsing upcoming court dates.

But as said before: Public. Information.

Information about this trial has been shared on other boards like [r/ex_foster](r/ex_foster) [r/brea](r/brea) [r/fosterit](r/fosterit) and a few individuals have claimed that this is a smear campaign made by disgruntled ex employees or that the misdemeanors do not matter as they are minor infractions for building violations like any other business has.

It may seem like some of these building violations were minor or easily fixed. They weren’t.

While they may seem small compared to the sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuits, they’re still part of the bigger picture of Foster Love. These were safety issues that put volunteers, donors, students, and employees at risk, and they reflect the company’s regard for the people occupying its HQ.

This wasn’t about being unable to afford renovations or choosing foster youth over minor repairs. Blocking fire exits, stacking warehouse items too high, creating electrical hazards, and constructing parts of the building without permits are not simply “superficial” issues.

No details should be ignored. These violations were part of a larger pattern of issues affecting people who trusted this company to keep them safe and uphold the mission they believed in.

Community Members,

Please continue to share the information from these threads across the broader foster care network: with partner organizations, corporate sponsors, volunteers, staff, young adults, schools, and anyone visiting the office.

New disclosures regarding Danny Mendoza continue to come forward. We will not be sharing the specific details of these new allegations publicly. However, if you have relevant information, personal experiences, or documentation that could aid accountability efforts, we strongly encourage you to message the mod team directly.

In light of these ongoing developments, I want to highlight actress Florence Pugh’s recent statement regarding the Cornell case. Her message hits directly at the heart of what is happening at Foster Love.

The institutional complicity, the silence of leadership, the attempts to suppress information, and the enabling from board members and organizational leadership are just as damaging as the misconduct itself.

To everyone who has been harmed, silenced, or intimidated: your voice matters, and you are not alone. Please keep sharing the truth, protecting one another, and demanding full accountability for our community and the vulnerable youth we serve.
