Seven-month-old Emmanuel Haro from Yucaipa in San Bernadino County was allegedly snatched from his mother's truck as she was changing his diaper before going into a sporting goods store.
Rebecca Haro told investigators that she had been hit from behind and knocked unconscious before quickly coming to and realizing her youngest son was missing.
A frantic search for the baby was sparked with helicopters and K9 units also in attendance at the scene at a Big 5 parking lot just before 8pm on Thursday.
With no sign of Emmanuel, the San Bernadino County Sheriff's Office issued a bleak update on Saturday stating: "The search for baby Emmanuel Haro continues; investigators cannot rule out foul play."

- Can Zuckerberg duck deposition in Meta privacy class action?
August 18 (Reuters) - Mark Zuckerberg has better things to do than sit for a deposition. Or so lawyers for Meta Platforms suggest in a pending petition, opens new tab to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, objecting to the billionaire CEO being forced to give testimony in a proposed privacy class action. The company invokes a controversial principle known as the apex doctrine to claim Zuckerberg should be spared the hot seat, arguing that he has no "unique" knowledge of the case, and plaintiffs' lawyers could get the same information from lower-level Meta employees. Plaintiffs want to question the CEO about allegations that Meta obtained private health information from millions of Facebook users without their knowledge or consent via its Pixel tracking tool. The claims echo those in a class action by users of fertility tracking app Flo Health, where a San Francisco jury on August 1 found Meta violated the California Invasion of Privacy Act. Damages are yet to be determined, but as I previously noted, the total could be huge. In June, U.S. District Judge William Orrick in San Francisco agreed with U.S. Magistrate Judge Virginia DeMarchi and gave the plaintiffs a green light to depose Zuckerberg, opens new tab. However, the judge limited the session to a maximum of three hours and narrowed the scope of allowable questions to center on a consent decree Meta entered into with the Federal Trade Commission involving the Flo app and Zuckerberg's role as a final decisionmaker on privacy-related matters. A Meta spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment. The company in court papers has denied wrongdoing in both cases. Plaintiffs' lawyers from Gibbs Mura declined to comment for this column. Defense counsel from Latham & Watkins and Gibson Dunn & Crutcher in July asked the 9th Circuit for a writ of mandamus to nix the deposition, calling it 'a critically important issue of first impression' for the San Francisco-based court. Mandamus is a 'drastic and extraordinary' request, plaintiffs' lawyers say, arguing that the trial court judge in allowing the deposition committed no clear error to justify such relief. But defense counsel say there's a larger issue at stake than a one-off deposition. Multi-billion-dollar companies like Meta face scores of lawsuits, and their leaders have "uniquely crucial and demanding job duties, as well as limited time," they wrote. That makes being called to testify especially burdensome. District courts within the sprawling 9th Circuit are 'deeply divided' on exactly when and how to properly apply the apex doctrine, Meta lawyers said in asking for appellate guidance. Indeed, spats over deposing CEOs have arisen regularly in court within the 9th Circuit and beyond in cases involving companies including Microsoft, Tesla, Uber, and Alphabet. In some instances, execs were let off the hook, while others were compelled to sit for depositions. Such demands can be more about harassment than a legitimate need for information, the Meta lawyers claim, arguing that deposition testimony is only justified if the executive has unique, first-hand knowledge that cannot be obtained elsewhere. Here, they assert, the bid to depose Zuckerberg is 'a ploy to increase the burdens of this litigation and obtain perceived leverage." Plaintiffs' lawyers counter that state and federal procedural rules already allow subpoenaed witnesses to contest demands for their testimony. There should be 'no special dispensation from civil discovery for corporate executives simply because of their status as titans of industry,' wrote, opens new tab lawyers from Gibbs Mura; Simmons Hanly Conroy; Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll; Kiesel Law; and Terrell Marshall Law Group. The underlying litigation began in 2022, when plaintiffs alleged Meta violated a federal wiretap law and a California privacy law, as well as its own contractual promises governing user privacy on Facebook, my Reuters colleague Jonathan Stempel reported. According to the complaint, Meta Pixel -- an internet analytics tool that Meta makes available to website developers -- provided sensitive information about users' health to Meta when they logged into patient portals where it had been installed, enabling Meta to make money from targeted advertising. Meta in court papers has responded that it should not be held liable if certain healthcare providers allegedly misused Pixel, 'a publicly available tool that Meta did not implement or configure on the providers' websites.' Plaintiffs' lawyers, in justifying their request to question Zuckerberg, argue that from the start he's been implicated in the case. 'He had personal knowledge of Meta's intent to receive this information,' they allege, 'and he knew about and played a key role in Meta's collection of sensitive health data.' The appeals court has not indicated when it will rule on the petition, but Meta lawyers notified the district court that Zuckerberg's deposition may proceed this month in Palo Alto if the 9th Circuit denies its mandamus petition by August 21.

Rise of sick ‘Cougar Clans' sparked by Bonnie Blue's ‘barely legal' romps where predatory women hunt ‘cubs' for sex
The sex star sparked outrage for romping with 'barely legal' teens - but she says her 'student sex tours' are educational SHOCK SEX Rise of sick 'Cougar Clans' sparked by Bonnie Blue's 'barely legal' romps where predatory women hunt 'cubs' for sex Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SHE'S the 26-year-old from Nottinghamshire who claims to have had sex with 1,057 men in just 12 hours - but that's not all that has garnered controversy for Bonnie Blue. The glamorous sex star - with her bouncy blowdries and Love Island-esque looks - has sparked outrage over her sex marathons with "barely legal" students - many of them eager for her to take their virginity. 12 Bonnie Blue claims to have slept with hundreds of young students for free - in return for being able to film it Credit: Instagram 12 The sex star has been criticised for targeting 'barely legal' teens Credit: Olivia West 12 She has made millions from her sexploits - but some have hit back at her 'predatory' behaviour Credit: Instagram Bonnie proudly advertised for young lads to 'bonk me for free' at university freshers' events, with as many as 158 queuing outside her hotel room. She then challenged Spring Break "barely legal" college boys to see who could give her the best orgasm - with a pledge to pay for the tuition of the "winner". Despite the head-turning influencer - real name Tia Billinger - growing up in a sleepy village and formerly working in NHS recruitment, she now rakes in a whopping £1million a month. She's now claimed she'll risk HIV to break records and said her shocking 1,057-men sex stunt was just the start. Disturbingly, Bonnie is not alone in the industry, with her sexploits being copied by other women trading in their bodies for likes on social media in horrifying trends. 'PREDATORY' BEHAVIOUR Bonnie is facing a growing chorus of hate in the UK, with A&E doctor Maddy Lucy Dann calling her 'predatory' for targeting teenagers. However, she's far from alone, with over 300,000 videos with the #cougar hashtag on TikTok, and numerous 'Cougar & Cubs' Facebook groups set up for older women to hook up with younger men. Here women, mostly over 40, give tips on where to pick up their 'cubs', brag about their 'experienced' sex lives and also plug hook-up sites on where to find toyboys. Despite the controversy around older women and younger men, Bonnie has claimed that she always IDs participants first to ensure they are of legal age - so while her stunts have raised eyebrows, they have not been illegal. But discussing Bonnie's antics, Maddy said on TikTok: 'I'm just going to say it, there's a woman on this app that is creating content centred around having sex with freshers. 'Freshers in the UK are people who have just started university and broadly speaking they are fresh out of six form, fresh out of school and they are probably about 18 years old. Horrified viewers slam 'disgusting' Bonnie Blue sex scenes as they air on Channel 4 'In this person's content, she makes a comment about how a lot of them might be virgins, sexually inexperienced, and I'm sorry but this kind of behaviour is predatory. 'She's an older woman and these are younger, inexperienced, vulnerable people that she seeks out via social media in order to have sex with them to create content. 'This person cares far more about their social media presence and making loads of money than they do about these people they are having sex with, who I do not believe are correctly informed and therefore cannot fully consent to what is happening. 'The ramifications of having sex with the person can be plentiful, but the ramification of having sex with somebody that is filming it and posting it – the internet is forever.' 12 Bonnie sparked controversy by having sex with 1,057 men in just 12 hours Credit: Instagram 'RAPE CULTURE' Bonnie was slammed for "promoting rape culture" and labelled "vile" for announcing what she called "Bonnie Blue's petting zoo". Explaining the sickening idea during an interview on Kat Baker's podcast, she said that she was going to be naked and tied up in a glass box, which would be "open for the public" to do basically whatever they want to her. When Kat asked "where" the box was going to be, Bonnie continued that she would be in "the centre of London" but "in a house". 12 Bonnie had planned to be naked, tied up in a glass box for the 'petting zoo', where people were allowed to do anything they want to her Credit: Instagram/@bonnie_blue_xox Making the planned event even more repulsive, Bonnie told Kat that she wanted to beat her own record by "doing 2,000". However, the news led her to being banned from OnlyFans with her set to lose her massive "£600,000 a month" pay. Bonnie had her page pulled due to breach of terms after her "extreme challenge" content "crossed a line". An OnlyFans spokesperson said: 'Extreme 'challenge' content is not available on OnlyFans and is not permitted under our Acceptable Use Policy and Terms of Service.' Why Bonnie Blue MUST be banned from social media By Kate Kulniece, Fabulous Digital writer and rape survivor When it comes to sex, I like to consider myself open-minded - and non-judgemental. But the vile, attention-seeking OnlyFans porn star Bonnie Blue makes me sick to my stomach. When the 26-year-old first hit the headlines with her gruesome stunts in March 2024, I'll admit - I didn't pay much attention to her. But as the challenges became more perverted and she eventually bedded over 1,000 men in just 12 hours, I became not just disappointed - but angry. Her most recent - and most disgusting - stunt to date, of being tied up in a glass box for men to fulfil their sick desires, is wrong and worrying on so many levels. The number of rapes being reported to police are at a record high, with a shocking 1 in 4 women, 1 in 6 children and 1 in 18 men falling victim to this horrific crime. It's an alarming rise and many believe, as I do, that the sexual assaults are fuelled by access to toxic online culture - with Bonnie seemingly leading the way with her vile sex marathon stunts. As a young woman who is a survivor of two rapes - aged just 13 and 23 - and who has been sexually harassed on countless occasions, I feel sick and enraged. In a society where sexual abuse, violence against women and misogyny have become a widespread pandemic, we should ban people like Bonnie from social media. Her foul and obscene challenges, which are becoming worse every time, are a slap in the face to millions of rape survivors like myself. Not only are her videos a constant reminder of the trauma and pain that was forced upon us, but she also teaches perverts that women are a piece of meat - and nothing else. Despite repeatedly insisting she empowers women, Bonnie promotes a culture in which women are passed around by men like toys. She also plays into the narrative that our husbands, fathers and sons can't control their sexual urges - or shouldn't have to. As a vocal multi millionaire, Bonnie may think this is all harmless fun, paying her many assistants to keep her out of real harm's way. But in reality, the sex-insatiable Bonnie is promoting dangerous rape culture and pushing victims like myself deeper into the abyss of trauma. Her twisted antics, and those of rival Lily Phillips and Aussie OF star Annie Knight, are damaging impressionable young teenage boys - half of whom have been exposed to pornography by the age of 13. These very same boys will grow up thinking this is normal, this is what women want - and what we're here for. There are countless things I look forward to, but the day the sick content creator finally gets banned from platforms cannot come soon enough. COPY CAT STUNTS A Sun probe has found that at least three more women in their 20s have started taking part in similar sex marathons and are promoting the footage on websites including TikTok and Instagram. Lily Phillips, 24, from Derbyshire, claimed to have had sex with 101 men in 14 hours at an Airbnb - and she received over one million views when she posted the footage online. Lily, who has banked well over £2million thanks to her OnlyFans career, said the youngest man she slept with was 18 and the oldest was in his 60s. Insisting she didn't complete the feat for money alone, she said: 'I didn't need to sleep with 101 random men, I did that out of enjoyment.' 12 Lily Phillips claimed to have had sex with 101 men in 14 hours at an Airbnb Credit: Olivia West 12 Lily's OnlyFans career has netted her over £2million Credit: Instagram/@lilyphillip_s Bonnie had previously opted not to make her real name public. And it's little wonder, given the furious backlash she received after bragging about sleeping with teenagers - and their married dads and grandfathers. Appearing on the popular Saving Grace podcast with internet personality GK Barry recently, Bonnie, who has 256k Instagram followers and 60k on TikTok, said: 'I don't want to discriminate. I don't want to just to students – I want to do their dads as well. 'To be fair, I need to give credit to this student, he came with his dad. "I was like, 'Are you joking?' When I first saw him with his dad, I thought he was going to come and tell me off. No, it was the opposite, he wanted to join in." 12 The adult content creator's antics were laid bare in her new fly-on-the-wall show, 1,000 Men And Me: The Bonnie Blue Story Credit: Rob Parfitt / Channel 4 'TOXIC AND GREEDY' In Australia, where Bonnie previously travelled with two bodyguards to attend 'Schoolies' university induction events, thousands have signed a petition calling for her to be barred from re-entering the country. Child safety expert Kristi McVee is one of those supporting the ban. She told The Sun: 'The main thing is, she is a grown woman exploiting barely legal and young men who don't and won't understand the impacts until they get older. 'Some of these young men - after the high of being with her, the overall excitement and potential disappointment wanes - will have regrets. In this person's [Bonnie's] content, she makes a comment about how a lot of them might be virgins, sexually inexperienced, and I'm sorry but this kind of behaviour is predatory Maddy Lucy Dann 'For some it won't even register, and they will be ok. It will depend on their level of emotional intelligence during and after. 'The point though is that 18-year-old men, who are just leaving school, haven't had the life experiences or skills to make critical decisions that could impact their future and careers, such as having these videos on the internet for all to see, and most won't think through the potential long-term consequences before getting involved. 'Only in the aftermath will we see the potential overall harm. 'Quite frankly, I am shocked that a grown woman would be so persistent in her mission to exploit young men. 'Who profits here other than her? I haven't considered her motivations but she's toxic, greedy, and predatory. 'She is feeding the beast of child abuse and exploitation by creating content using teenagers. 'Anyone who does this is, regardless of their gender, is a predator.' Bonnie Blue's rise to fame and controversy Born in May 1999, Bonnie - whose real name is Tia Billinger - grew up in a small Derbyshire village, and attended the Friesland School in the village of Sandiacre. She has two half-siblings - a sister and a brother - who have always remained out of the public eye. She never knew her biological father, and considers stepfather Nicholas Elliott her dad. Bonnie also became something of a dance star in her local area, and competed in the British Street Dance Championships alongside her sister back in 2015. She also had a part-time job at Poundstretcher as a teenager. After school, she began working in recruitment. In October 2022, Bonnie married Oliver Davidson, who she had started dating when she was just 15. Once they were married, they moved to Australia, where Bonnie continued working in recruitment. However, it was in Australia that she decided to pursue a different line of work, and tried her luck as a 'cam girl' - crediting Oliver for giving her the confidence to enter the adult entertainment world. She quickly made a name for herself in the industry, and was soon making £5,000 a week. But while her work life was going from strength to strength, her relationship was crumbling, and she and Oliver split after almost a decade together. She moved over to OnlyFans following her cam girl success, and once again found fame on there. She quickly became a favourite on the site, especially thanks to her "niche" of sleeping with young male students - such as when she bedded 158 students during Nottingham Trent University's freshers week in September 2024. Bonnie is now estimated to be worth £3 million, and makes around £600,000 a month on OnlyFans. Her family are also supportive of her work, with mum Sarah Billinger even claiming she's her daughter's PA, and helps clean up after Bonnie's events - as well as handing out condoms to young clients. In January 2025, Bonnie claimed to have broken the world record for the most amount of sex in 12 hours, after apparently sleeping with 1,057 men from 1pm to 1am at a secret London event. 'KARENS HAVE AN ISSUE' Despite claims of 'predatory' behaviour, Bonnie Blue has insisted her content is 'educational', adding: "It allows you to understand consent better." Bonnie hit back this week, blaming so-called 'Karens', or privileged white women, for trying to force her out - and pointing out that 18-year-olds are allowed to vote and join the army. She said of the lads she films with: 'They have to sign a consent form [saying] they have not been drinking or have done drugs in the last 24 hours. She [Bonnie] is a grown woman exploiting barely legal and young men who don't and won't understand the impacts until they get older Kristi McVee 'It's the 'Karens' that have got an issue with it. I understand what I do is out there, but sex is focused on one thing. It's pleasure and enjoyment, and that's all I see it as. It's not anything more than that.' In the same interview, Bonnie doubled down on previous comments she'd made about married men having a right to cheat if their wives won't sleep with them. She said: 'You can come home, deal with your wife's whinging, look after the kids - but you're just sneaking off elsewhere to get pleasured. 'If [men] are going to work and do a hard day's shift, they need to be treated.' 12 Bonnie hosted an X-rated Spring Break in Cancun Credit: bonnie_blue_xox/Instagram SEX REGISTER CALLS Dubai-based lifestyle creator Jade Katy also slammed Bonnie on TikTok, saying: 'Guys, Bonnie Blue belongs on a sex offenders register. 'I said what I said, I'm not going to take it back. 'I'm convinced the woman's frontal lobe isn't fully developed the way she goes about her life but that's by the by. It's the 'Karens' that have got an issue with it. I understand what I do is out there, but sex is focused on one thing. It's pleasure and enjoyment, and that's all I see it as. It's not anything more than that Bonnie Blue 'If you had a grown male hanging around student halls, ready to film, in her own words by the way, 'barely legal' girls, to profit off on an account he had, I'm sorry but he'd end up in court and being put on a register. 'So I'm standing by the fact that this woman also deserves fully to belong on a register.' Meanwhile, TikTok influencer Kayla Barker compared Bonnie to former kickboxer Andrew Tate, who is accused of spreading sexist views and is currently facing charges of sex trafficking and rape. 12 Some critics have compared Bonnie Blue to hugely controversial figure, Andrew Tate Credit: Instagram Kayla said: 'Giving women like Bonnie Blue a platform contributes to violence against women and girls and if you think that's a reach, please let me educate you. 'It's clear to see that we're in a femicide. Violence against women and girls is growing literally every single year. 'It doesn't come from nowhere, men aren't born as rapists and abusers, it grows as misogynistic values grow. 'Misogynistic values passed on from creators like Andrew Tate and now Bonnie Blue coming on to the internet and saying, 'Oh if you're not having sex with your husband, he has a free pass to cheat on you.' 'It's so much cheaper than rage bait, it contributes to the objectification of women and it reinforces the idea that men are entitled to have sex with us whenever they want basically." 12 Bonnie claims what she's doing is 'educational' and has dismissed allegations she is 'predatory' Credit: Instagram SEX AS A 'COMMODITY' Psychotherapist Lucy Beresford also fears that women like Bonnie might end up regretting their actions. She said: 'Sleeping with so many people will mess you up to some degree because it turns sex into a commodity rather than being an intimate act. 'It runs the risk of anaesthetising you to the joy and pleasure that sex can bring in a healthy relationship. You can come home, deal with your wife's whinging, look after the kids - but you're just sneaking off elsewhere to get pleasured Bonnie Blue 'There is an argument to say such behaviour is pathological because they're doing it like a job. 'The lines between the act and the emotions that arise through intimacy might be warped – because they are doing it with so many people.' However, she adds: 'But then what is too many? And why is it OK for men to have lots of lovers, but it's not OK for women?' 12 Psychotherapist Lucy Beresford fears Bonnie might end up regretting her actions Credit: A P Wilding Sex addiction expert Dr David Ley also accuses Bonnie's critics of having double standards. He said: 'Many lay people and therapists alike believe that females engaging in casual sex is a sign of low self-esteem, neediness, or even severe mental health. 'An old professor once told me that women who engage in gang bangs are likely pre-psychotic and the multiple men they sleep with fulfil the needs of a fragmenting psyche. 'But we now know these beliefs are all driven by misogyny, sexism and sexual double-standards in our societies. 'The only reasons that women who engage in promiscuity or group sex experience negative outcomes is because of social judgement and stigma. 'If we want women to not experience such harm, we as a society must consider our role in it.'
