Homicide Dets. & Family Seek Public’s Help Solving Execution-style Murder of Prominent Atty; $100K Reward Offered
Homicide Bureau detectives and the victim’s wife and family members made an emotional appeal to the public Wednesday morning, April 26, 2017, for help in finding the person(s) who took the life of Jeffrey Tidus, a prominent civil litigation attorney.
The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors has approved a reward of $10,000 and an additional $90,000 has been added by the victim’s family, making a combined offer of $100,000 in exchange for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible for the execution-style murder of Jeffrey Tidus; with the hope of encouraging witnesses to step forward and share any tips they may have.
“He was a true believer in justice . . . ,” said Sheryl Tidus, wife of victim Jeffrey Tidus, as she made an emotional plea for help from the public this morning. “We deserve answers . . .,” she added.
It was about 8:30 p.m. on the evening of Monday, December 7, 2009, when 53-year-old Jeffrey Tidus was murdered after arriving at his Rolling Hills Estates residence after attending a fundraiser in Redondo Beach. Jeffrey often brought work home with him. When he stepped out of his home to retrieve his work laptop computer from his vehicle, which was parked in his driveway, unknown assailant(s) came up from behind Jeffrey and shot him once in the head. He was transported to UCLA Harbor Medical Center where he succumbed to his injuries the next day
Jeffrey Tidus is survived by his wife of 25 years, Sheryl and his daughter, Ilana Tidus. He was a partner with the law firm of Baute & Tidus. He served previously on the State Bar Board of Governors as the California Young Lawyers Association representative and at the time of his death he was a member of the Committee on Professional Responsibility and Conduct. He obtained his undergraduate degree from the University of California at San Diego, and his law degree from the University of California at Berkeley. He was an avid runner, and was training for the Los Angeles Marathon at the time of his death.
