Lisa Castro Carlos Castro yikes!!!
Rosie Romero :'(
WTF?!?!?
Im sorry to hear that sis :'(
What in the hell scv!
Lol…SANTA CLARITA VALLEY. ..
This is getting crazy.
No it’s not. Stop being drama.
your comments always crack me up
What are you talking about??? You don’t even know what I’m referring to. I’m talking about how there seems to be a death every day now in Santa Clarita. So don’t tell me I’m being drama when you don’t even know what I’m talking about.
I do know what you are talking about and you ARE drama because while there is death everyday, we aren’t even close to having a murder everyday in SCV.
I think you need to reevaluate what you think the meaning of drama is.
Saying there is death everyday in your town, when there clearly isn’t…is drama.
James Campbell is you dead?
Dillon Jen Schmidt no im not dead
Damnit…
Just playing miss you man
Lol miss you too
I just walked by the whole street was taped off
That’s right by your house huh?
One street down
Will do
Annette Alarcon
I thought I was in compton for a moment with the Helicopter over head..
Have you ever been to compton.
Drama
Move
LOL
OH MY GOSH HAHAHAHA
Wow…..
Wait until you hear the other

“Hi! I’m white and I know what Compton means!”
Cecilia Delgado
Wow they been killing many people lately in Santa Clarita
Crazy, i wonder if they are related
Who’s they
The deaths to the same killer
They? I know two of the last 4 deaths since April were family disputes. One was a suicide. One was a body of a homeless man who lived 300 miles away in the trunk of a car.
You are all dumb.
suzie – some of these SCV residents are so ridiculous with thier comments and irrational fear. nothing has changed in the last 30 years, we just have the internet and social media – so we are better informed.
SCV is NOTHING like SFV or LA area. not even close.
Agree, everyone is so quick to say how ghetto SCV is and they wanna get outta here, then go!!! If you don’t feel safe by all means move. The crimes that happen here WILL happen ANYWHERE!!!! We have it good out here, the ignorance is obnoxious!!!!
Like Alex said nothing has changed at all! But back then when we didn’t have social media as much as we do now people were not aware of what was going on around them. Now that everything is listed on Facebook and everyone has their noses to their phones all the time they know about things like this right away!
Not all of the death’s were homicides…
Actually something has changed in the last 30 years, or homeless populations and drug use have risen significantly and many of the recent deaths are directly related to issues which are connected.
I totally agree with you Alex Hollandar, with the Internet we are just more informed. Let’s not get out of hand & compare it to other cities where there is higher crime rates.
@tanya stats? Prove it.
This was a family dispute ending in a death of an older man :/ so sad
One of the reasons I live here is that it suppose to be a safer area. WTH…throw that out these days
Still safe. Stop being a drama queen.
They haven’t revealed how he died? Don’t jump to conclusion that scv is like Compton, might be another victim of over dose
I don’t like my area being compared to Compton at all…it’s a horrible comparison from someone who probably hasn’t lived there….however, the articles I have read basically say there was an altercation with the person dying and that they have as suspect (possible family member) in custody.
That lady probably doesnt know how compton really is
Compton? Wow…some people are so dumb.
I use to go to Jordan high in Watts & trust me canyon country is not Compton! Far from it. Ridiculous comparison.
“…might be another victim of over dose.” I feel more reasured. (We had druggie renters 2 doors down that were there for years. LASD was there often.).

Relax yall its still safe, lotta popos reside their.
Family dispute, which turned into murder is what channel 7 reported, have man in custody.
I’m so sorry Samantha that is horribly tragic! Prayers to your family.
Is always the white people who commit suicide stupid people
Tanya LeAnne Austin
Typical Newhall broad
Remarkable these dumbasses still exist…..
LOL
LOL
Your ignorant! !
Lol…that was too funny….
It wasn’t suicide
Relax it’s just domestic
Oh I feel better now….wth???
I knew u would
How sad :'(
Anyone know what was going on with the helicopter flying over the abc condos on seirra hwy?
Waiting for some white person to make a Jakes Way comment. Come on, you know it’s coming.
Good god. We don’t have a serial killer on the loose. Wanna feel unsafe? Go to Compton wearing red – then you’re in trouble.
SCV has just as much crime per capita as any other city. Canyon country is has undergone a huge change since I lived there. We have homeless living in the river bed, Shootings, stabbings, drugs and all the rest. We certainly didn’t find utopia.
It’s called the Internet. You now KNOW about more crime, but there isn’t more crime.
That’s right alex, there’s no crime in the SCV. Thanks for setting that straight for me dear.
The statistics must be all wrong then I guess.
He didn’t say there isn’t ANY crime . He said , we NOW KNOW about the crime more .. Because of the internet .
There has ALWAYS been crime .. But without the media , how are we to know ? It seems as if its a lot now and more common but its because its actually getting reported on the news and internet .
Is that like if a tree falls and no one is around to hear it, it doesn’t make a sound.
Yes there has always been crime. However, I don’t happen to get my news from the Internet or facebook. I guess most people do nowadays. But not me.
We are hearing about more crime because there is more crime. It’s that simple. People are more and more desperate these days and over Summer the crime waves go up. That is a statistic. Not a news report.
So Stephanie, most of the shootings and stabbing a lately have been family dispute/domestic violence. Yes it’s still murder but it’s not a random person going and killing another person. It’s family issues that escalade into these things happening. I still think SCV is a great place to live. Anywhere you go your going to have crime but we are nowhere near downtown LA!
“I don’t get news from the Internet or Facebook”
Aren’t you commenting on a news page on fb?
::face Palm::
Also…these “statistics” you speak of…. Tell me about them?
I see the Homeless and drug issues as increasing problems. There are so many more homeless now, you see them or their stolen shopping carts filled with crap all over Canyon Country. It’s not the same town it was 20 years ago.
What ever happen to the body they found in the truck on the car on golden valley. Did they ever release the identity of victim and cause of death? If anybody knows let me know
Yes they did. It was a male from out of the area. I believe he was Hispanic in his 20’s and they were asking the public for help.
He was from Leggitt.
Wonder who killed him and dumped his car and body here??
Where can we find all these details out?
What the hell is going on? Every week a dead body, a suicide, a drug overdose, a hit and run. I moved out here because of the whole feeling safer thing, I lived in Encino before. It’s beginning to feel alot like the valley.
Are we up to 1 body a month now?
;)
WTH this is becoming an every day occurrence in Santa Clarita!
No it’s not.
Come on you gotta know what I mean! Every time you turn around lately there’s a murder or suicide out here. I can think of 5 off the top of my head that occurred within the last month or so. That’s pretty bad in my opinion.

I just turned around in my chair 8 times and no one has died yet.
Awful…what is going on in Santa Clarita these days!!!!!

And another on bites the dust. Another one gone.
Um people, if you notice, most (of course not all) of the recent murders have been by family members, this seems to be the situation here also.. If your family has one of these, it doesn’t matter what city you live in!!! Domestic violence happens EVERYWHERE!!!!

Scary
Another one???
Alex must be running for mayor or something . Lolololol. If ya really wanna know what’s going on out here…. the sheriff runs a monthly crime report as well as their annual report. Year after year crime goes up out here. I tend to think that with all the low income housing going up and the lack of police presence, crime will continue to increase. We really need another substation soon.

I wish there was a dislike button… lol
Seems a lot of dead bodies are showing up in SCV lately. What’s up with that?
He probably smoked someone’s blunt! !
