Daria Berenato, who wrestles for WWE under the name Sonya Deville, has received death threats even after the arrest of a man charged with aggravated stalking and attempted armed kidnapping.
Deville has received anonymous messages and social media posts such as "I'll finish the job that Phillip started," and "My knife is sharper than Phillp's," reports HeelByNature.com. Because of those, the Hillsborough County, Fla. Circuit Court granted a motion Deville filed Monday to seal evidence in the case against the attempted kidnapper.
The suspect in question was arrested in Deville's home in Lutz, Fla. on Aug. 16. Records show he was carrying a knife and pepper spray. Deville and a house guest, WWE star Mandy Rose, fled just before Hillsborough County sheriff's deputies arrived and took Thomas into custody.
The sealed evidence includes pictures and messages that show Deville's house, reveal her address and identify her relatives.
According to the motion, Deville and Ariana Johnson, an ex-girlfriend, have asked for confidentiality as they are "victim or witness at risk of harm" as defined by Florida statute.
The attempted kidnapper, who is charged with three felonies and a misdemeanor, is being held without bond in the Hillsborough County Jail. A hearing for a temporary injunction is scheduled for Thursday.
