Reality TV star and model girlfriend ‘drugged and sexually assaulted’ two women

Shocking new details have emerged in the case of reality TV doctor Grant Robicheaux and his model girlfriend Cerissa Riley, who are now charged with assaulting two women.

The California couple, who have pleaded not guilty, are accused of preying on the women in posh restaurants and bars, drugging them, and then taking them back to Robicheaux’s apartment in Newport Beach before assaulting them.

At a preliminary hearing this week to assess whether the case will go to trial, the Attorney General’s Office presented testimony from two alleged victims — five years after the allegations first came to light.

The pair were originally charged with assaults on seven women, but the state has narrowed down the number of alleged victims after a series of controversies at the district attorney’s office — eventually leading to the state attorney general taking over the case.

At this week’s preliminary hearing, investigators gave testimony on behalf of the alleged victims.

Both women say they believe they were drugged and that Robicheaux, who appeared on Bravo TV’s Online Dating Rituals of the American Male, and Riley attempted to sexually assault them.

Newport Beach Police Department Detective Marie Gamble testified as the lead investigator for the allegations of the first woman, who was referred to in court by the pseudonym Jane Doe 1, according to reports from the Orange County Register.

Gamble stated that Jane Doe 1 met Riley and Robicheaux in Baja Sharkeez on October 2, 2016 while she was drinking with her roommate.

She said they bought her and her roommate drinks, but she “passed out” after a few sips.

She woke up stripped next to her topless roommate at Robicheaux’s home, the court heard.

Unable to wake her roommate, Jane Doe 1 got up and met Robicheaux in a bathroom.

When she asked him what was going on and how they got to the house, she claims that Robicheaux grabbed her by the arms and told her, “You wanted this, you wanted to come back here.”

According to the testimony, Robicheaux tried to kiss Jane Doe 1 and she tried to back off, leading to a struggle that led to him punching her as she fell to the floor.

After Jane yelled Doe 1, Riley walked over and told Robicheaux, “It’s going too far, it’s not worth it.”

Jane Doe’s screams were heard by neighbors, who called 911.

The second alleged victim in the case, Jane Doe 2, had her testimony given by Orange County District Attorney Investigator Jennifer Kearns.

Jane Doe 2 claims she met Robicheaux through a dating app while visiting a friend who lived nearby.

They arranged a date at Nobu Newport Beach over Easter weekend 2017, and she was surprised when Riley was also present.

After a few cocktails, she agreed to go to a local bar with Robicheaux and Riley.

The three of them drank more and Jane Doe 2 took cocaine which Riley offered to her in the bathroom.

The next thing she remembers is walking up the stairs to Robicheaux’s bedroom, the court heard.

She then remembered that Robicheaux and Riley touched her and took off her shirt, after Robicheaux gave her a drink that he had put some kind of substance in it.

The woman remembers crying hysterically as Riley tried to comfort her.

She then locked herself in the bathroom where Riley begged her to open the door, allegedly telling Jane Doe 2 that Robicheaux would hurt them if she didn’t, adding “he’s forcing me to do this.”

The case against Riley and Robicheaux is controversial.

It was first filed by then District Attorney Tony Rackauckas in 2018, but was dethroned by current District Attorney Todd Spitzer.

Spitzer then controversially moved to dismiss the charges, publicly apologized to Robicheaux and Riley and said there was not enough evidence to bring the case.

The women’s lawyers pushed back, arguing that seven different women who had never met had made similar credible allegations against the couple.

A judge denied Spitzer’s request to dismiss the case, describing it as a “backroom rejection” of a case that had been “tainted” by politics.

Two alleged victims withdrew from the case, stating that they had been ‘grossly beaten’ and ‘dragged through the mire’.

A separate judge dismissed the charges involving three other women at the request of the Attorney General, leaving two remaining women.

The pair were charged in January on 13 separate counts, including drugging with attempted rape, assault, possession of illegal drugs such as cocaine, MDMA and PCP, and possession of an illegal assault weapon.

Robicheaux and Riley deny the allegations, their lawyers saying they are instead “swingers” having consensual sex with other women.

Orange County Superior Court Judge Michael Leversen will decide on July 9 whether the couple will stand trial.
