Thursday, October 30, 2025 - Hollywood producer and serial r@pist David Brian Pearce has been sentenced to 146 years to life in prison for his role in the tragic overdose deaths of model Christy Giles and her friend Hilda Marcela Cabrales-Arzola, as well as a series of violent s3xual assaults spanning more than a decade.
Pearce was convicted in February of first-degree murder in
connection with the women’s deaths, alongside multiple s3x crimes, including
forcible r@pe, r@pe of an unconscious person, s3xual penetration by force, and
sodomy by use of force, according to ABC7 Los Angeles.
Prosecutors said Pearce met Giles and Cabrales-Arzola at an
after-hours rave and later drugged them to facilitate a s3xual assault.
The chilling sequence of events began on November 13, 2021,
when 24-year-old Giles, a model and aspiring actress, was already
dead when she was dumped outside Southern California Hospital in Culver City.
Two hours later, 26-year-old Cabrales-Arzola, an architect, was found in
critical condition outside Kaiser Permanente West Los Angeles Hospital. Her
family later made the devastating decision to take her off life support.
Investigators determined that Giles died of a lethal mix of
cocaine, fentanyl, gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB), and ketamine, while
Cabrales-Arzola died of multiple organ failure after ingesting cocaine,
ecstasy, and other drugs.
Prosecutors told the court that Pearce and his roommate,
Brandt Walter Osborn, were the ones who dropped the victims’ bodies at the
hospitals after they overdosed inside their apartment
Pearce denied supplying the drugs, but after two and a half
days of jury deliberation, the panel found him guilty on all major counts.
Osborn, 46, who was charged with two counts of being an
accessory after the fact, is still awaiting a possible retrial after jurors
were unable to reach a unanimous verdict.
Giles’ mother, Dusty Giles, expressed gratitude to
prosecutors after the sentencing, saying she was “so proud” of the legal team
for securing justice and that Pearce’s s3xual assault victims had “finally had
their day in court.”
The sentencing marks the end of a high-profile case that
exposed Pearce’s long history of predatory behavior and brought long-overdue
justice to the families of his victims.
