Murrieta Daycare Operator Arrested for Child Abuse

Marvin Alberto Ulloa, a 63-year-old operator of the Ulloa Family Daycare in Murrieta, was arrested on January 28 on suspicion of molesting a child. The Murrieta Police Department began investigating after receiving reports of possible sexual abuse involving a young girl in the daycare's care on January 7. Following several weeks of investigation, police gathered enough evidence to obtain an arrest warrant, leading to Ulloa's detention at the Byrd Detention Center, where he is being held on $1 million bail. His charges include lewd acts with a minor and oral copulation of a child under 10 years old. The Riverside County District Attorney's Office is reviewing his case, and authorities are urging anyone with information or potential victims to come forward. At the time of the investigation, the daycare had no recorded violations or complaints from the California Department of Social Services during its last inspection.
