A victim of last month’s attacks in the Venice canals was declared brain-dead after a monthlong coma, sources confirmed to The Times on Tuesday.
Two women were severely beaten and sexually assaulted in attacks that occurred one after the other on April 6 between 10:30 and 11:30 p.m., the Los Angeles County’s district attorney’s office said last month in a statement. The first attack occurred in the 2700 block of Strongs Drive when a woman was approached from behind and struck with a hard object. The second woman was attacked in a similar way, police said, less than a mile away near Sherman Canal.
” Last month, the district attorney’s office charged Anthony Francisco Jones, 29, on multiple counts for the attacks, including rape, torture and attempted murder. A second victim, a Venice resident, was also badly beaten. According to a recent message posted to a GoFundMe on her behalf, she has been released from the hospital but is unable to work for some time until she’s fully healed. The fundraiser has received nearly $100,000 for her care.
