from True Crime Today | Daily True Crime News & Interviews · host Real Story Media

Rebecca Haro knew exactly who Jake Haro was when she had a baby with him. She knew about the 2023 child cruelty conviction in Riverside County. She knew about the 2024 illegal possession of a loaded firearm and the probation violations. She knew about the ex-wife who had gone into court and asked a judge for a domestic violence restraining order, specifically requesting protection for a child she shared with him.None of it stopped her. She brought seven-month-old Emmanuel Haro into that home anyway. And the documented danger Rebecca knew about did exactly what every prior court record said it would do.In this episode, Tony lays out the warning signs everyone could see in public records and the choices Rebecca Haro made anyway. The forensic pediatric specialist's findings on injuries spanning the months of Emmanuel's short life. The eight days Rebecca and Jake Haro sustained a fake kidnapping in front of television cameras, candlelight vigils outside their Cabazon home, and a national news cycle after their son's death. The black eye Rebecca somehow conveniently acquired before her first on-camera interview. The single scripted word, Hola, that planted a phantom stranger in the public imagination. The begging on camera for strangers to bring back a baby whose body she had helped hide.The Riverside County District Attorney's Office called Rebecca Haro's plea a reflection of her sins of parental omission. Twelve years and eight months in state prison. The murder charge dropped. The false police report charge dropped. Jake Haro is doing thirty-two years to life and will likely die in prison.The full story of what happens when a parent watches their child be killed and helps lie about it. Hear every piece of it.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
