• I was sexually abused by the guard during my time in custody. Can I do something?

  Asked in Riverside, CA | February 14, 2026

  During my time in custody, I was sexually assaulted on multiple occasions by a staff member/guard. The guard used his position of authority to engage in unwanted sexual contact and sexual acts with me, including inappropriate touching of my genitals and forced anal sexual assault. The abuse caused significant emotional and psychological harm. I experienced fear, shame, confusion, and trauma that has continued long after my release. Since leaving custody, I have struggled with anxiety, depression, anger, difficulty trusting others, and intrusive memories related to the abuse. I did not receive trauma-informed care related to the abuse, and my mental health deteriorated as a result. The trauma from what happened to me in juvenile hall has had a direct and lasting impact on my relationships and overall functioning. The sexual abuse I experienced has caused long-term damage to my mental health, stability, and quality of life. I am seeking accountability for the harm done to me and justice for the abuse I endured while in custody as a minor.

• city code enforcement is harassing me with violations in which the city is culpable of wrongdoing with flood control

  Asked in Hesperia, CA | March 24, 2026

  The city of Hesperia has a flood problem throughout the city, especially where my property is located. The last storm happened in December 2025. Flood waters and tons of dirt entered my private property, and they want the dirt removed at my own expense. I'm tired of getting harassed by these code enforcement letters and public nuisance notices. So far, I've paid $2750.00, and the city is still not satisfied with the job.

• What can I do if the mother of my child is making visitations really hard to deal with?

  Asked in Del Mar, CA | March 31, 2026

  By example if I don’t pick up the phone at the first ring when she calls she treats me with calling the police for a wellness check on my child or she is constantly calling him on a video call asking him to show her around my house and putting device trackers on him. Plus she always states I’m a bad father and that I have no rights or that she wants to replace me with her new partner. I have all this evidence on talking parents, the app the court gave us to communicate, plus she blocked me from her phone, preventing me from contacting my son.
