Add The California Post on Google Seven children are now orphans after the search for a young Fresno mom who vanished after a visit to her boyfriend’s house ended with the discovery of her body.
Tatiana McIntyre, who uses the name Alison Riley, 29, had not been heard from since she visited her ex-boyfriend’s home to visit their two children about 12.10p.m. Tuesday.
Riley’s ex allegedly has a history of domestic violence, having previously choked her and stopped her from leaving her home, her mother said.
Family members told Fox 26 News that her phone was pinged at the home about 1 p.m. that day before going offline.
When she never appeared to pick up her children from school later that day, her family became concerned.
They tracked a Zipcar rental she had to an orchard near McKinley Avenue and Academy Avenue.
Family found her vehicle abandoned with her belongings inside. Police confiscated the vehicle.
Investigators served a search warrant at the home of her ex-boyfriend as Riley’s family anxiously waited for information.
Riley’s mother, Liberty Lopez, had been waiting at the home since 5 a.m. for news.
“I’ve been here since 5 a.m., waiting to hear anything about my daughter,” Lopez told FOX26. “We’re just hoping for the best.”
We just want her home,” Lopez said. “We want to know where she’s at.”
The Fresno Police Department is now saying the probe has shifted into a death investigation at a home along East Grove Avenue in Fresno.
However, friends recently confirmed she’d been found dead.
