East County man accused of “murder-for-hire”

SPRING VALLEY (CNS) – An East County man who allegedly offered a $3,000 bounty for the “dead or alive” capture of his teenage daughter's sex-offender boyfriend was jailed Friday on suspicion of solicitation of murder.

Detectives arrested Domingos Jose Oliveira, 50, at his Spring Valley home about 9 a.m., several hours after serving a search warrant at the Roadside Place residence, according to police.

Oliveira's 19-year-old daughter and her 33-year-old boyfriend, a registered sex offender, reported him to authorities after he allegedly posted several home-made “reward” signs at Grossmont College in La Mesa, Lt. Dan Willis said.

The placards bore the boyfriend's name and photo and offered the cash bounty “for the (man's) body … dead or alive,” according to Willis.

Oliveira was booked into county jail and was being held without bail pending arraignment, scheduled for Tuesday afternoon.
