A Solana Beach dog groomer, Tony Choi, was sentenced to five years in state prison for attempting to sexually assault a 75-year-old woman in her home near Torrey Highlands. Choi, 52, went to the woman’s home on Oct. 31 under the pretense of washing her dogs. Once inside, he tried to sexually assault her, but was interrupted by the victim’s caretaker, leading to his arrest later that night. The Sheriff’s Office confirmed the incident and stated that Choi will also have to register as a sex offender. The victim’s safety was jeopardized, but thanks to the swift action of her caretaker, a potentially dangerous situation was diffused. This case serves as a reminder of the importance of remaining vigilant and aware of potential threats, even in seemingly innocuous situations. The sentencing of Choi sends a strong message that such predatory behavior will not be tolerated and will be met with serious consequences. Residents of Solana Beach and the surrounding areas can rest assured knowing that justice has been served in this case. It is crucial for communities to come together and support each other in times of need, especially when it comes to protecting vulnerable members from harm.
