During the alleged assaults, the victim “received multiple bruises on both arms, neck and left ankle,” according to court records.

The victim told police that “she was kicked in nose” on March 30, and Rios allegedly “choked her while on the bed from behind,” according to court records. OnĀ April 5 Rios allegedly “pulled her down on the bed, kicked her and grabbed her” and began “choking” the victim, saying, “I am going to choke you till you can’t breathe.”
