Testifying against Nick Pasqual during the trial, the ex-girlfriend, Allie Shehorn, reflected on the experienced violence while dating the actor that led to their eventual break-up. “I locked the door, and he just started punching holes in that door and broke that open, and I just ran into the bathroom because I thought there’s another lock on that door,” she said with visible scars on her neck and arm, according to ABC7.Meanwhile, Shehorn’s roommate, Christine White, said to KTLA, “I found her, and I had to go into the bedroom where it happened. That wasn’t a pretty sight. This is not the kind of thing that should happen to anybody.” DISCLAIMER: If you or someone you know is struggling with any form of abuse, please seek support.
