McBryan Mendoza-Matias, 25, was arrested in Oakland for two assaults on sex workers, leading to charges of stabbing two women. The incidents, reported on January 15 and January 27, involved unprovoked violence and a negotiation dispute over payment for services. A preliminary hearing took place on February 18, where only one victim testified, resulting in one charge being upheld while another was dismissed. Mendoza-Matias remains in custody with a bail set at $60,000 and is set for arraignment soon, having been positively identified by both victims.
Mendoza-Matias allegedly stabbed two women after soliciting them for sex, with the Jan. 15 attack being unprovoked and the Jan. 27 attack following a payment dispute.
Out of the two attacks, only the woman from the Jan. 27 incident testified at the preliminary hearing, while the other charge was dismissed.
After being arrested, Mendoza-Matias was held to answer on one charge and remains jailed, with a bail set at $60,000 pending arraignment.
Both victims identified Mendoza-Matias out of a photo lineup, further reinforcing the police's case against him in connection with the stabbings.
