People v. Zarakowski CA2/6

FACTS AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY

September 20, 2022, incident (counts 1, 2, 32) Corrie and Andrew3 are the ex-wife and son of Zarakowski. Andrew’s friends, Yasmeen Davis and her boyfriend, Jayden Fador, were staying at Corrie and Andrew’s home. Zarakowski showed up at the house, and asked Davis who she was and what she was doing there. At the time, Davis was alone in the house. She explained to Zarakowski why she was at the house, but he did not believe she had permission to be there. Zarakowski left the home but sat in his car in the driveway. Davis called Fador to come to the house. When Fador arrived, he went upstairs to grab some belongings and put them in a backpack and another bag. Zarakowski returned to the house, “got mad,” and told Davis that she lied to him about no one else being inside the house. He accused Fador and Davis of stealing and told them to leave the house.

2 Zarakowski was charged with another count of assault with a deadly weapon (§ 245, subd. (a)(1); count 6), but the jury found him not guilty.

3 Because they share the same last name, we use first names for the sake of clarity. No disrespect is intended.
