The 53-year-old victim told officer Ryan Leggett of Ocala Police Department that she was at a motel with her new boyfriend, George Robert Pineda, 44, whom she has known for a decade. She said that at around 10pm on Tuesday they were discussing their future, after they had been consuming alcohol throughout the evening, and she spoke to him about him taking anger management classes.
The woman said Pineda began screaming profanities at her, grabbed her neck and choked her. She said she could not breathe and eventually pushed him away. When he later fell asleep, she ran away and called authorities. The woman had scratch marks on her neck. Pineda was questioned by the officer.
He denied touching the woman. He was charged with domestic battery by strangulation and was taken to the Marion County Jail. According to court records, Pineda has several convictions, including aggravated battery and domestic battery, and a domestic violence injunction was served on him in 2013.
