Couple Pleads Not Guilty

A Rancho Cucamonga couple accused of stealing money intended for three children in their care pleaded not guilty to all counts against them Thursday.

Richard Reyes, 50, and Yvonne Reyes, 49, were arrested in April on suspicion of grand theft of guardianship funds intended for the care of the three juveniles.

Richard Reyes faces seven different charges and Yvonne Reyes faces three.

The couple was also assigned separate attorneys during their arraignment in the West Valley Superior Court.

Richard Reyes will be back in court Oct. 19 for a jury trial. Yvonne Reyes will have a pre-trial Oct. 2.

Over an 18-month period, prosecutors said the couple drained accounts of $750,000 that was set up for the minors.

  4. holy cow over an 18-month period, prosecutors said the couple drained accounts of $750,000 that was set up for the minors.

    what? more than half a mil spent in such a short period of time boy they were busy huh? not guilty? how stupid and dumb do these greedy vultures Yvonne and Richard Reyes think we are?

    nothing like irritating the judge in this case someone with an ounce of character would have at least plead guilty to show respect to the judge to save the state prosecutors and taxpayers and courts a whole lot of grief.

  5. I hope both Richard and Yvonne Reyes get a lot of prison time to contemplate what they've done.

    Not that they have a conscience, mind you; they certainly don't have that.
