PALM SPRINGS, Calif. (KESQ) According to new court documents obtained by News Channel 3, Jake Haro was caught with a handgun and ammunition in June 2024 while already on felony probation for a prior child cruelty conviction. He pled not guilty that August.
That gun case was serious enough that Haro was already facing the possibility of prison time before prosecutors later charged him and Rebecca Haro with murder in the death of their 7-month-old son, Emmanuel.
But instead of moving forward, the case was delayed four separate times, each at the request of Haro’s defense attorney:
- First from October 2024 to December.
- Then to April 2025.
- Then again to July 2025.
- And finally to September 2, 2025.
That hearing has since been vacated and consolidated with the Haros’ murder arraignment set for September 4, meaning multiple cases will now be handled in a single courtroom session…
