Two men were charged with attempted murder Tuesday in the stabbing of a
man who works as a bodyguard for a nationally known figure popular among
the alt-right, prosecutors said.
Edgar Khodzhasaryan, 30, of Glendale, and Arsen Bekverdyan, 31, of
Burbank, were charged with attempted murder and assault with a deadly
weapon in the stabbing following a dispute in a Santa Monica parking
structure on Saturday, according to Sarah Ardalani, a spokeswoman for the
Los Angeles County district attorney’s office.
Tim Gionet, a popular alt-right Internet personality better known by his
Twitter handle, @BakedAlaska, identified the victim as Antonio Foreman.
Gionet did not witness the attack but said he spoke with the victim when
he visited him in the hospital on Monday.
Gionet, who said Foreman sometimes works for him as a bodyguard, told his
more than 175,000 Twitter followers that the assault was politically or
racially motivated. Foreman is an ardent supporter of President Trump, and
had been leaving an event in support of the president when he was
attacked, Gionet said.
Law enforcement officials flatly dismissed the claim.
Prosecutors did not file a hate crime enhancement with the charges,
Ardalani said. Lt. Saul Rodriguez, a Santa Monica Police Department
spokesman, said the attack was spurred by an argument.
“There’s nothing here that would lead us to believe it was targeted or a
hate crime or anything like that,” Rodriguez said.
Khodzhasaryan and Bekverdyan were exiting the parking structure and
attempting to call for a parking attendant to help them operate the gate
around 11 p.m. on Saturday when the victim “made a comment to the suspects
which led to an argument,” Rodriguez said.
All three men exited their vehicles and a fistfight erupted, Rodriguez
said. The suspects fled a short time later, and the victim realized he had
been stabbed, according to Rodriguez. The victim, whom Rodriguez would not
identify, was transported to an area hospital in critical condition.
Khodzhasaryan and Bekverdyan were arrested a short time later while being
treated for minor injuries at an area hospital, Rodriguez said.
Khodzhasaryan is also suspected of a probation violation.
Both were being held in lieu of $1 million bail, and were scheduled to be
arraigned in the Airport Courthouse on Tuesday afternoon, Ardalani said.
It was not immediately clear who was representing them.
Gionet is a former BuzzFeed employee and popular right-wing Internet
personality who has many fans among the alt-right movement, a loosely
connected fraternity of white nationalists and other far-right groups.
Foreman is also affiliated with the Oath Keepers, according to Gionet. The
Oath Keepers, a group comprised largely of former law enforcement officers
and military veterans, often provides security for far-right protesters
and at demonstrations in support of Trump.
The group has been described as “one of the largest radical anti-
government groups” in the country, according to the Southern Poverty Law
Center, which tracks domestic extremists and hate groups.
Gionet told The Times that Foreman was stabbed nine times by two suspects
who made anti-white comments either prior to, or during, the attack.
Gionet said Foreman, whom he described as one of his best friends, was in
stable condition at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles on
Monday.
On Twitter, Gionet alleged one of the suspects yelled, “You’re getting the
shank White Boy,” before the attack.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party has run out of gas.
Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for ending the disaster of the
Obama presidency.
Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.
ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its
supporters can dispute that.
Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum
wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare. It can't
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great
it is.
Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.
