Nick Pasqual Arrest And Charges: What Crime Was He Accused Of?
Pasqual, 34, was charged on Wednesday by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office on one count of attempted murder, one count of first-degree residential burglary with a witness, and one count of injuring a spouse, cohabitant, fiancé, boyfriend, girlfriend, or parent of a child. He could get a maximum term of life in jail if found guilty of all charges, according to officials.
The victim’s identity was not disclosed by the DA’s office, but according to Entertainment Tonight, Pasqual is suspected of stabbing cosmetics artist Allie Shehorn. Shehorn’s medical costs were funded by a GoFundMe.
According to a news release from the district attorney’s office, Pasqual allegedly broke into his ex-girlfriend’s Los Angeles house on May 23 at around 4:30 in the morning and stabbed her “multiple times.” Shehorn was hospitalized with grave injuries. Shehorn had recently secured a restraining order against Pasqual.
Following her hospitalization, the cosmetics artist was described as “fighting for her life” on the GoFundMe page. The fundraiser stated that Shehorn spent many days in the intensive care unit and had multiple surgeries, including one to restore severed tendons in her right arm and another to close wounds in her neck.

“No one deserves to endure such a traumatic experience, especially someone as compassionate and caring as Allie,” says the page on GoFundMe.
It is said that following the stabbing, Pasqual left the city. The district attorney’s office reports that when an arrest warrant was obtained, he was taken into custody at a Texas border checkpoint between the United States and Mexico.
Pasqual will be extradited back to Los Angeles to face charges, according to officials. According to the district attorney’s office, there is currently no planned date for the arraignment.
According to sources, the Los Angeles Police Department is still looking into the matter.
‘My thoughts and heartfelt sympathies are with the victim in this horrific incident,’ said the Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón.
‘Our office, including our Bureau of Victim Services, extends our support and resources to her as she embarks on the long and difficult journey of healing from both the physical and emotional trauma inflicted upon her.
‘This heinous incident is a stark reminder of the dangers of domestic violence. We will ensure that the individual responsible for this egregious act is held accountable for their actions.’
Shehorn is currently recovering from the stabbing attack in hospital.
