KUDOS TO THE HEMET PLANNING COMMISSION COMMITTEE AND PRESENTERS

I know people have known me to be critical of the city, and while holding people and systems accountable for systemic failures is important, it’s not all doom and gloom, and I appreciate that the Planning Commission is truly listening to our community.

I also believe in giving flowers where they’re due.

Huge shout out to the Hemet Planning Commission Committee and especially to Assistant Planner Nathan Morin, Monique, Noah, the other presenters for an incredible presentation. The plans you all have for Hemet’s future are thoughtful, forward-looking, and exactly what the city needs. It genuinely felt like a breath of fresh air and gave my heart hope.

I also want to give a shout out to whoever made that solid public comment during the meeting, it was awesome, and thank the committee for actually reading it. It’s refreshing to see public input taken seriously; I’ve submitted commentary to the City Council before, and it often goes unread.

I was also happy to see how they have made a better plan to address our roads and road and transit safety. We all know that’s a huge problem in our community and something that needs to be focused on for sure.

I’m especially excited about the real, tangible support for families and residents:

• English as a Second Language programs

• Literacy and computer training

• “Basics of Life” courses and workforce-entry programs

• Nutrition and wellness programs

And the new Menlo Avenue apartment developments are a standout, affordable housing, family-friendly recreational spaces like parks and basketball courts, beautiful landscaping, and urban forestry that makes the area inviting and safer for everyone.

On the infrastructure front:

• Downtown Hemet Mobility Hub for better transit and commuter experience

• 1.25-mile Rail Corridor Pedestrian Path connecting Menlo to Palm Avenue, creating a safe, green space for families to walk and bike

• Safety & Accessibility upgrades, including Class IV Bikeways and missing sidewalks along Menlo

• Enhanced transit amenities with five new bus shelters

• Essential services like free Wi-Fi/Internet, bus passes, and a Residential Support Services Program

Hemet is also making bold strides toward economic and housing stability:

• $22 million loan for 157 new affordable units

• Anti-displacement measures and 27 project-based vouchers to keep residents in the community

• A Workforce Development Apprenticeship Program to give residents real career skills

This kind of investment in people, families, and community, not just roads or buildings, matters. It shows intentional planning and gave my heart hope for where Hemet is headed. We hope that everything will go through as planned and better our community and the lives of everyone in it. 🌿🏡🚴‍♀️

Above are some slides from their presentation.

THE PREDATORS SHIELD: A RETROSPECTIVE ON CONTROVERSIAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY MELANIE ROE

We are documenting a pattern the community has a right to examine. Behind the legal strategies and courtroom filings is a documented history of high-stakes acquittals and public marketing that deserves closer scrutiny.

Who is Melanie Roe?

A criminal defense attorney with 30+ years in the Riverside County legal system. Her practice specifically markets "Indio Sex Crime Lawyer" and "Sexual Assault Defense," with a stated philosophy of "waging battle on the accuser."

The Pattern of "Wins":

Roe’s own website promotes a record of securing dismissals in cases involving:

- Multi-victim child molestation (2010)

- Felony sex charges against a medicated patient (2009)

- Attempted oral copulation of a minor (2024)

The Feinbloom Connection:

In 2019, Roe represented Abraham Feinbloom in a felony kidnapping case; charges were dismissed. In 2026, she has returned as his attorney of record, this time for the murder of 17-year-old T’Neya Tovar.

The Statement:

After DNA confirmed T’Neya’s remains were found less than a mile from her client's door, Roe issued a public statement to KESQ-TV comparing the discovery to "limb loss" in living amputees. This wasn't a courtroom filing; it was a deliberate choice to use a media platform to minimize the significance of a missing teenager’s remains.

Our Stance:

We do not assert illegal conduct. We assert that the community has the right to name this pattern, document it, and ask questions about its consequences.

What You Can Do:

1️⃣ Attend court dates: Monitor People v. Feinbloom in Imperial County.

2️⃣ Demand context: Ask media outlets why Roe’s prior representation of Feinbloom isn’t reported alongside her current role.

3️⃣ Keep T’Neya’s name visible: Share this report. Community memory must not fade.

We stand for T’Neya. We stand for every child this system has failed.🕊️

THE PREDATOR'S SHIELD: A RETROSPECTIVE ON CONTROVERSIAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY MELANIE ROE'S HIGH-STAKES ACQUITTALS (DEFENSE ATTORNEY FOR ABRAHAM FEINBLOOM, ACCUSED MURDERER OF HEMET TEEN T'NEYA TOVAR)

The Predator's Shield: A Retrospective on Controversial Defense Attorney Melanie Roe's High-Stakes Acquittals

A Justice Warriors Collective Accountability Report

Who Is Melanie Roe?

Melanie Roe is a criminal defense attorney based in the Coachella Valley, California, who has represented individuals accused of serious crimes, including sexual assault, child molestation, and homicide. She has practiced for over 30 years and is marketed as an aggressive, "Superb"-rated trial lawyer.

Her practice specifically highlights "Indio Sex Crime Lawyer" and "Sexual Assault Defense" as core areas of expertise. She began her career at the Riverside County Public Defender's Office before entering private practice, and has spent three decades building an established presence inside Riverside County's legal system.

What She Advertises -

Roe's own website documents her case results. Among them: "multi-victim child molestation trial: DISMISSED POST TRIAL" and "multiple felony sex charges against medicated patient: NOT GUILTY."

Her website states that over three decades she has handled cases covering "sexual assault, domestic violence, sodomy, child molestation, rape, and more." Her firm's stated philosophy centers on "waging battle on the accuser (victim)", emphasizing what she calls the "crucible of cross-examination" to expose inconsistencies in victim testimony.

Justice Warriors Collective believes the pattern of publicly advertising dismissed child molestation and sex crime cases as professional achievements raises legitimate questions about who this practice is designed to serve, and who may be left unprotected as a result.

A Record Built Case by Case -

The following cases are drawn directly from Roe's own published case results on her law firm website. Defendant names are not listed for cases where public court records do not independently confirm them. What is documented here are the charges, the outcomes, and the publicly stated legal strategies used to achieve them.

Case No. INF065252 (2010) — Multi-Victim Child Molestation

A defendant facing multiple child molestation charges went to trial. The case was dismissed post-trial. Roe lists this outcome on her notable cases page.

Case No. INM059631 (2009) — Multiple Felony Sex Charges

A defendant facing multiple felony sex charges involving a medicated patient received a not guilty verdict. Roe documents this outcome on her homepage as evidence of her trial record.

Case No. INF2101597 (2024) — Attempted Oral Copulation of a Minor

A defendant faced six felony sex counts including attempted oral copulation of a minor. At the preliminary hearing, five of those six counts were dismissed. One count remained. Roe lists this as a favorable outcome on her website.

Case No. INF2000117 (2020) — Kidnapping and Burglary

A defendant faced felony kidnapping and burglary charges. Roe persuaded the magistrate to discharge both counts at the preliminary hearing. The prosecution refiled the kidnapping charge. Roe then had it dismissed under Penal Code Section 995. Court records confirm the kidnapping charge was dismissed on two separate occasions.

Case No. INF2301606 (2024) — Attempted Murder, Kidnapping, Domestic Violence

A defendant faced an attempted murder charge with life sentence exposure, alongside kidnapping and domestic violence charges. The attempted murder count was dismissed on a 995 motion. The remaining charges proceeded to trial and were dismissed. The prosecution refiled. A second jury trial resulted in all charges being dismissed again, for the final time.

Abraham Feinbloom — Imperial County (2019) — Felony Kidnapping

Feinbloom faced felony kidnapping charges in Imperial County. Following a preliminary hearing in which the district attorney indicated they were unable to proceed, the charges were dismissed in January 2019. Roe has publicly confirmed she represented him in that case.

Abraham Feinbloom — Now Charged With Murder (The murder of Hemet Teen T'neya Tovar)

When Abraham Feinbloom was arrested on February 13, 2026, in connection with the death of 17-year-old T'Neya Tovar, a Hemet girl whose partial remains were found less than a mile from his front door, Melanie Roe returned as his legal representative.

Court records confirm that Roe represented Feinbloom in the 2019 kidnapping case, in which charges were dismissed at the preliminary hearing stage. She is now his attorney of record in the current murder case. Justice Warriors Collective believes the public has a right to know that the same attorney represented this individual across two separate serious criminal cases spanning nearly a decade, and to consider what that continuity of representation means in context.

What She Said About T'Neya -

T'Neya Tovar went missing in late 2025. A breakthrough came in February 2026 when DNA testing confirmed that a leg found in the California desert belonged to her, recovered on December 21, 2025, in the Vista Del Mar area near Harlequin Court, less than a mile from Feinbloom's residence. Court documents and law enforcement statements, as reported by KESQ-TV and confirmed through Imperial County Sheriff's Office documentation, established that bullet fragments were recovered from the leg. Investigators stated their belief that T'Neya died from a gunshot wound.

When those remains were confirmed, Roe issued a statement to KESQ-TV. She said:

"I still haven't seen a death certificate from the coroner's office. And that is, I presume, because the proper authorities know that limb loss, without more, is not equivalent to death. If it were, the 2.3 million amputees in this country would be surprised to know they are not counted among the living."

Deplorable.

Breaking Down the Legal Strategy -

Challenging the legal establishment of death prior to formal certification is a recognized and documented defense tactic rooted in the principle of corpus delicti, the requirement that a crime must be proven to have occurred before a conviction can be secured.

In our view, while this strategy is a standard tool in a defense attorney's legal arsenal, its application here is particularly striking: the recovered remains had already been DNA-confirmed as belonging to a missing 17-year-old girl and contained bullet fragments, details reported publicly by KESQ-TV and confirmed by the Imperial County Sheriff's Office prior to Roe's statement.

Justice Warriors Collective believes that deploying this argument through a public television interview, rather than a courtroom filing, reflects a deliberate choice about how and where that strategy is communicated, and that the community has a right to examine that choice through an ethical lens, separate from its legal legitimacy.

Feinbloom has pleaded not guilty and faces a potential sentence of 50 years to life if convicted. He is entitled to a vigorous legal defense under the law.

Why This Matters -

Justice Warriors Collective does not assert that Melanie Roe has acted illegally or violated her professional obligations. Defense attorneys serve a constitutionally protected and necessary function, and every person accused of a crime is entitled to representation.

What we do assert is this: when an attorney's publicly marketed practice documents a consistent record of dismissals in child molestation and sex crime cases, when that same attorney represents the same individual in a kidnapping case and later in a murder case, and when public statements are issued through television media that, in our view, minimize the significance of DNA-confirmed remains belonging to a missing teenager, the community has the right to name that pattern, document it thoroughly, and ask questions about its broader implications.

T'Neya Tovar was 17. She was from Hemet. She deserved to come home alive. Justice Warriors Collective believes she deserves to have her case discussed with the full weight and transparency that the public record allows.

What You Can Do -

\- Attend court dates.Public presence in the courtroom matters. Monitor Imperial County Superior Court for case updates on People v. Feinbloom.

\- Demand media context. When outlets publish Roe's statements, contact them and ask that her prior representation of Feinbloom in the 2019 kidnapping case be included for full public context.

\- File a State Bar complaint. If you believe an attorney's public conduct warrants review. The California State Bar accepts complaints at calbar.ca.gov.

\- Document everything. Screenshots of her website case results page, court records, and media interview transcripts are part of the public record. Preserve them.

\- Keep T'Neya's name visible. Share this report. The legal process moves slowly, community attention and public memory do not have to. We must ensure that Feinbloom is not allowed to reoffend.

The views expressed in this report represent our analysis of publicly available information and do not constitute legal conclusions or assertions of criminal conduct. We stand for T'Neya. We stand for every child this system has failed.\*\*\*\*

Meet Larry 💔 A 4-year-old male Bulldog, 50 lbs, who came into the shelter as a stray on 3/3. Sadly, no one has come looking for him.Kennel ID: #A1902822

Larry is having a really hard time in the shelter environment. When he was first seen, he was shaking in his kennel, clearly scared and overwhelmed. The constant noise, barking, and stress of the shelter can be incredibly frightening for sensitive dogs like him. Some dogs just don’t show well in this environment — and Larry is one of them.

The good news is that he does have a kennel mate and they get along just fine, which shows he has the ability to coexist peacefully with other dogs. But Larry will need a patient, understanding person willing to give him the time and space he needs to feel safe and learn to trust again.

🏡 Please consider adopting or rescuing Larry.📍 Kennel ID: A1902822

Let’s help this scared boy find the second chance he deserves. ❤️🐶
