“A Tragic Altercation: Nick Pasqual Charged in Vicious Attack on Ex-Girlfriend”
The glittering facade of Hollywood has been tarnished by a harrowing act of violence. Nick Pasqual, the 34-year-old actor who graced the screens in projects like “Rebel Moon: Part 1” and “How I Met Your Mother,” now finds himself embroiled in a grim saga that has sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry.
According to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office, Pasqual has been charged with attempted murder, first-degree residential burglary, and injuring a spouse or partner. The charges stem from a chilling incident that unfolded in the early morning hours of May 23rd, when he allegedly broke into the Los Angeles home of his former girlfriend, Allie Shehorn, a talented makeup artist whose artistry has adorned productions like “Mean Girls” and “Babylon.”
Wielding a weapon, Pasqual is accused of unleashing a vicious assault, stabbing Shehorn multiple times, leaving her fighting for her life. The attack was so severe that Shehorn was rushed to the intensive care unit, where she has undergone multiple surgeries, including a procedure to repair severed tendons in her right arm and another to close wounds in her neck.
In the wake of this brutal incident, a GoFundMe campaign was swiftly launched to aid Shehorn’s recovery, both physically and emotionally. The outpouring of support from the industry and beyond has been a testament to the profound impact Shehorn has made through her craft and compassionate spirit. “No one deserves to endure such a traumatic experience, especially someone as compassionate and caring as Allie,” the GoFundMe page poignantly reads.
Pasqual, who allegedly fled the scene, was eventually apprehended at a U.S.-Mexico border checkpoint in Texas, prompting the issuance of an arrest warrant. He now faces the grim prospect of life behind bars if convicted on all charges, a stark contrast to the glamorous life he once led on the silver screen.
In a statement, District Attorney George Gascón expressed his sympathies for the victim and underscored the gravity of the situation, stating, “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.”
As the investigation unfolds, the industry holds its collective breath, grappling with the harsh reality that even in the world of make-believe, darkness can lurk beneath the surface, shattering illusions and leaving indelible scars.
