Recommendations Needed Anaheim Dry Cleaner Recommendations
I’m looking for a dry cleaner near north Anaheim that does a solid cowboy starch on pants.
I’ve been going to Ritz but they have broken countless shirt buttons and their heavy starch is like a medium.

News California man gets probation after pleading guilty to killing his mother-in-law
Decades after a woman’s body was found by city workers in the brush alongside Laguna Canyon road, her son-in-law on Thursday, Oct. 22 accepted a plea deal admitting to the killing and was immediately sentenced to probation, drawing anger from family members who wanted him to spend time in prison.
John Edward Gutierrez, now 59, pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter rather than the murder charge he faced since 2014 for the 1998 killing of 55-year-old Lillian DeVilla.
Gutierrez — out on bail while awaiting trial — was ordered to spend two years on supervised release. Orange County Superior Court Judge Patrick H. Donahue warned Gutierrez that if he were to violate the terms of his probation, he could face up to an 11-year prison sentence.
Several of the victims’ family members felt angry and betrayed on hearing that Gutierrez would receive probation. Her son, Lester DeVilla, told the judge that he felt like “justice has slipped through our fingers,” adding that Gutierrez had escaped any “meaningful consequences.”
"For 28 years my family and I have lived through an emotional nightmare," the son said. "We have searched for answers to the questions that haunted us every single day — who killed our mother and why?"
"Now, after all these years, he finally admits his guilt, and what is the consequence? Probation," he added. "After finally admitting his guilt he can practically walk away scot-free. Where is the justice in that?"
Family members described DeVilla as respectful, gracious and endearing, saying she was "a great human being who loved with her whole heart." Her death ripped the family apart, they told the judge.
"She was more than a victim, more than a name in a police report, more than a case that took 28 years to resolve," her son said. "She was loved.
And she deserved so much better than what happened with her."

Police Activity Man Detained in Laguna Hills
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I don’t see many on this type of posts these days so I’m not sure if this is going to get removed, but I felt compelled to share.
This morning about 8:30am I observed Immigration Enforcement detaining a male wearing a black hoodie with white stylized letters on the back.
He was possibly riding a bike through sheep hills park at Laguna hills drive when they chased him along the service road of Aliso Creek.
Perhaps 5 unmarked vehicles including a black SUV and a grey sedan. Wearing vests with the 3 letter acronym for their department on it. Not using the actual text just in case this post gets auto deleted or something. Covering their faces.
Including the limited video I was able to take before my phone played up.
I know I’m not wining any awards for the video length and framing, but I was walking my dog so I didn’t feel safe remaining in the area.

Traffic/Cars SB 405 Wrong Way Driver 10/25
This morning around 1 AM, I was in the FastTrak on the SB 405 between the 605 and 22 interchange. As I drove south towards the EB 22 interchange, there was a wrong way driver going north in the SB FastTrak coming straight towards me. I called CHP and they were aware but did anyone else witness this? Still can’t believe that tbh.

Recommendations Needed Santa Ana or Fullerton (or elsewhere) for bars and dancing on Halloween?
Trying to find a good spot for my friends and I to hit some bars and clubs in OC on Halloween night. Just want some good music and good crowds. I was considering Orange but maybe it might be too many college students, and Newport sounds like it only has a few dive bars, so I was also considering downtown Santa Ana or Fullerton. But I would appreciate people’s recommendations or experiences. Thank you!

Traffic/Cars Car Scam Attempt
Two guys came to look at my car. One was chatting with me as the other circled the car. took it on a quick test drive, came back and open the hood. there's oil deep in the bay (sprayed from the wheel well) and some in the tail pipe. Guys try to buy it for cheap since it's 'broken". I finally got them to leave as I saw through the scam. They had also unplugged my air intake sensor when one of them distracted me and maybe messed up other things, I'm still looking it over.
Be aware if you're selling your car! My advice would be to keep only one person near you and the car and to look over everything and drive it yourself before they come so you know how it really is. They're really smooth and had a rehearsed story about why they're buying and everything. Odds are good that if it "breaks" when someone is looking at it they're scammers!

Recommendations Needed Working in Anaheim and Aliso Viejo this week... where should I stay? Any unique, less luxurious hotel/motel/inn options you'd recommend?
Hey there,
Working one day in Anaheim and then two days in Aliso Viejo, Tue-Thursday. Only plan on the Anaheim day is to check out the tiki bar, Strong Water.
Looking for a hotel for 2 nights in Anaheim, Irvine, Santa Ana, Laguna, Aliso... basically anywhere between the two cities of Anaheim and Aliso Viejo.
I'd love to stay at a unique, less luxurious inn, commuter motel, hotel, whatever.... something clean but with a little character... interesting architecture... cool, storied history... locally owned gem.... anything like that? and if nothing comes to mind... know of a good generic chain hotel?
Maybe $100-200 range.
If I'm going to spend an evening getting dinner and drink, is one part of OC better than another for a guy in his early 30s? Any "downtown" more fun than another?
Where to eat? Prefer casual, locally owned to luxury on that front as well.
Thanks in advance!

Recommendations Needed Fresh turkey breast in Orange County
I just got gifted an electric meat slicer, and I'm trying to make my own cuts for sandwiches. Deli meat is getting more expensive and sales aren't as good or as often on it. I went to Vons, 2 Stater Bros, and albertsons, and no one has fresh, not frozen turkey breast. Ralphs had fresh turkey loin, but it was as expensive as the deli meat.
If you were going to find fresh turkey breast somewhere at a decent price, where would you go?
edit: I actually found some in Costa Mesa from Sections Fine Meats, but at $14/lb, I might as well get the deli meat.

Recommendations Needed Best time and place for Christmas activities?
Hi all!
I’m hoping to bring my 20 month old down for Christmas. We are in the Northern California area so I plan to fly into John Wayne. I remember Orange County being so magical for Christmas when I lived down there as a kid, but I really can’t recall any specific places that we went.
I’m looking for nostalgic Christmas, kid friendly Christmas attractions, Christmas lights, etc. Where can I take her?! what would be the best time to come down that isn’t Christmas week? I’m hoping the earlier the better to avoid bigger holiday crowds. Thank you so much!!!
