A popular South Coast store and tourist attraction has expanded it's business in the Bay Area, opening up a second location that they hope will draw in more customers.
The news seemed to have broken out of the blue, as investigators called their first press conference in the Leah Freeman investigation in about nine years. But it was actually many months in the making.
