An Anaheim man was charged Tuesday with murder after allegedly stabbing another man to death when he found him in bed with his wife, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.
Ismael Pinedalopez, 34, faces one felony count of murder and a sentencing enhancement for personally using a weapon in connection with the death of 28-year-old Nicholas Garcia.

Prosecutors said Pinedalopez returned home early from work and discovered Garcia wearing only his underwear in bed with his wife and their two young children.
On Oct. 24, Anaheim police responded to a report of a stabbing at the residence on North Pine Street near W. Wilhelmina Street. Upon arrival, officers found the victim’s body inside the bedroom he shared with his wife and their  2-year-old daughter and 4-year-old son, prosecutors said. 
According to police, Pinedalopez used a pocketknife in the attack. Pinedalopez's wife and children were not injured.
Pinedalopez faces a maximum sentence of 26 years to life in prison if convicted on all counts. 
He is scheduled to be arraigned Oct. 27.

My wife and I bought a bunch of candy, and now I'm worried none of it will get passed out. Do people go out with umbrellas?

This happened at Arlington D[r/fairview](r/fairview), 10/27/26 around 4pm. My guess the car that ran the red light was texting/looking at phone 🤷🏻‍♂️. Hope it reaches the right person if she needs the footage

My partner and I ended up here after driving around to three furniture outlets today. We were starving, so we stopped for pho and bánh mì.

I got the pork bánh mì, and the marinated pork was probably the best I’ve had in a bánh mì since moving to California. My partner’s pho broth was so good he picked up the bowl to drink it. Really good Thai tea too.

Everything tasted fresh, the portions were huge, and the prices were reasonable. That combination is getting harder to find.

Also, I appreciated that they had real photos of their food on the walls instead of AI images. Small thing, but I liked it.

It’s at 4949 La Palma Ave, La Palma, CA 90623, if anyone nearby wants to try it.

Correct me if I’m wrong about what is is

This is the very first time I got so many different random msgs from different numbers asking me to vote on a regular basis. Is it just me or you guys are running into the same issue? I never left my phone number out to be contacted to vote or anything. How did they get my number? From the county? Idk how to stop this..

Please join us on Tuesday, October 27th from 5-7 pm PST to discuss Ranked Choice Voting and Irvine's Measure D proposal). Participating in answering your questions will be members of Voter Choice Irvine and CalRCV (California Ranked Choice Voting Coalition).

The intent is to engage with the broader Orange County community with an informational, policy-focused discussion grounded in published research and the experience of jurisdictions that use RCV.

Topics we're glad to cover:

• What Irvine's Measure D would do, and how it would work for Irvine voters
• How instant runoff voting (aka: RCV) works, including how ballots are counted
• Which California cities and counties use RCV, and how implementation has gone
• The history of RCV in the U.S. and abroad
• Research on RCV's effects, including voter turnout, ballot errors, candidate behavior, representation, and cost
• Arguments for and against RCV, including common criticisms
• Any other RCV questions, including ones that are critical of it

Feel free to comment your questions in advance, or during the AMA 2-hour duration itself.

Thank you!

Hey, friends.

We are Swampwalk, a new Orange County MTG community.

I see people on here ask about local MTG meetups and thought this would be a great place to start!

On November 15th, we will be hosting Spells & Slices from 6-10PM at Wowee Zowee Pizza in Tustin. They are an awesome family-owned restaurant with some of the best pizza in OC (sourdough crust, hell yeah).

This will be a COMMANDER night. There are 16 seats available. This is a FREE EVENT with the option to reserve a pod spot. However, reservations are NOT required and first come, first served for non-reserved seats.

DM us here or on Instagram (@swampwalkmtg) if you have any questions.

Whether you’re a battle-scarred spellcaster or new to the hobby, we welcome you.

This Commander event is 18+. Hope to see ya there.

Does anyone know about this his? I’m in Laguna Niguel looking towards Newport.

Anyone seen any frauditors around OC lately? I realized recently that there's been a noticeable dropoff in people reporting sightings of them on Facebook, and city police departments putting out "don't let these assholes bait you" PSAs. I did a little searching, and it seems like YouTube might have de-monetized a bunch of their channels and caused many of them to give up their trolling. I'm still trying to verify that but if it's true, 1. Hallelujah and 2. just goes to show what they're really in it for. 🙂

E: Further researches have turned up this Youtube channel with some music that's clearly AI made, but flipping hilarious. I feel sooo conflicted for liking it.

I was driving home when some grown dude was standing outside his house pointing a green laser at cars passing by. He pointed it through my truck’s rear windows, and I could see the green light hitting my steering wheel and sun visor while I was driving.

I caught him on my dashcam and reported it to the police because it happened down the street from my house, and my family has to drive through there to get home.

Has anyone else ever had this happen to them? What ended up happening?

I feel stupid even asking the question but has anyone seen more of a large kind of mosquito in their house instead of the ankle biters that are hard to see?

I just killed a big one on my baby’s room, and that’s not even the first one I’ve come across in my house or outside. I know the past few years we’ve been dealing with the ankle biters, but these seem new. I wouldn’t have expected these in California.

I swear I’m not crazy..

We recently learned about the dog park in Santa Ana (at Centennial Park off Fairview) and went to check it out for our girl’s honest review. We really loved it.

Pros: It looked really new and clean. They have 3 areas for small, medium and large dogs. They have the weight recommendations for each. They had an agility course in the big dog area. They had seating with back support. Lots of available parking. Felt safe. Grass was abundant (not a lot of dirt).

Cons: Not much shade. There are a lot of small trees which I’m guessing they’ll give a lot of shade once matured. They only have water (for the dogs) available outside the fencing. There’s a rule that no toys are allowed. I feel like tennis balls and similar should be allowed.

We hope your pups try it out and love it too!

I want to take some classes for things like pottery, art, voice lessons, beginner acting, sewing etc just for fun. I'm 35 and there seems to be more single class/week options for the emeritus program.

Is it actually mostly seniors? I don't want to invade their space but I also would feel out of place with mostly 18 year olds in the regular classes. Has anyone taken any emeritus courses at ivc, saddleback, occ etc?

Every month we have an informal meetup for IT professionals in Orange County. Its a small informal way to meet other people in the industry.

Photos look weird (possibly cool but can’t tell) and I can’t tell if the pit is separate tickets or first come. I’m not a young man anymore but I have tickets for a punk band and I definitely don’t want to sit down while I watch.

Either way, is it a cool vibe? Does it sound good?

Greetings! We are Widowsun, based in Costa Mesa, and we’re searching for a keyboardist to complete our line up. Our influences come from bands like Pedro the Lion, Thrice, Baroness, Holy Fawn, Spirit Wad, etc. We’d prefer someone who is very experienced with synthesizers and understands texture well. Age 30s - 40s, maybe late 20s. Be chill; someone who we can friends with. We care a lot about having fun and don’t take ourselves too seriously. If any of this tickles your fancy, feel free to dm on here or Instagram.

You can find us on.

For a myriad of reasons, I am in the market for a new tattoo artist. I’d prefer a woman bc I want to support women-owned businesses (even if it’s just self employed). I’ve been going to the same guy since 2014 so I really don’t know the tattoo scene in OC outside of his shop.

Ty in advance!
