Board of Supes Extends $10K Reward for Info that Helps Solve RHE Murder

The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors today renewed a $10,000 reward for information leading to whoever fatally shot a 53-year-old attorney in the driveway of his Rolling Hills Estates home.

On Dec. 7, 2009, Jeffrey Tidus was shot in the head in the 4600 block of Sugarhill Drive. He had gone out to retrieve a laptop computer from his car, his wife told investigators, who said Tidus appeared to have been targeted.

He and his wife had owned a toy store in Redondo Beach.

Supervisor Don Knabe, who recommended extending the reward, said Tidus was active in various charities and was a valued member of the community.

The reward was set to expire Aug. 9 and will now be available for at least another 90 days.

The attorney’s family, friends and clients separately raised $90,000 in reward money, but to date, no one has been arrested in connection with the shooting.

Anyone with more information was asked to call sheriff’s Detectives Joe Espino or Bob Kenney at (323) 890-5500.
