A violent assault in Tarzana at a strip club shocked the community and highlights the seriousness of assault charges. Police were searching for two people accused of an assault, setting on fire and critically injuring an exotic night club dancer. The incident occurred at or near the Babes & Beer nightclub. Police were searching for Rianne Theriaultodom, 27, of North Hollywood, and Nathaniel Marquis Petrillo, 22, of Reseda, in connection with the crime.
Witnesses identified the two suspects and police were asking for the public's help to locate them. "We have them positively ID'd," Moore said. "They may be responsible for her ultimate murder." The woman, whose identity was not immediately released, was described as being in grave condition with burns over 60 percent of her body. She has two young children.
Violent assaults such as this could warrant attempted murder charges as well, the penalties for such crimes include years in jail. These crimes are felonies and are seriously prosecuted by the Los Angeles District Attorney's office. This will also count as a strike for both individuals under California's Three Strikes laws.
Assault carries with it probation, jail time, significant fines, anger management classes and much more. The Law Offices of Stephen G. Rodriquez are staffed with lawyers who regularly represent individuals being prosecuted for assault crimes and attempted murder.
