Creepy mugshots of two women who left victim 'blind in one eye in horror Halloween hatchet attack'
COPS have released creepy mugshots of two women they say blinded a woman in one eye with a hatchet attack on Halloween.
Theodora Economou and Vivian Bertrand spent Halloween night allegedly vandalizing private property on Main Street before clobbering a woman who pleaded with them to stop, Placerville police said.
The pair allegedly slashed the woman with an “edged weapon” causing a severe facial wound near her left eye,” according to a release.
The women, were chased down by a man they also allegedly cut and other Good Samaritans who barricaded Bertrand in a parking lot until officers arrived.
The victim, who suffered the vicious attack, was identified as Kristine Hall, according to a GoFundMe page.
A man, who cops say was a friend of Hall’s who attempted to protect her, also suffered a cut to his left thumb.
"We got her some towels together and got her, basically, compressed… and helped as best we could," LeBlanc told KCRA.
Hall was taken to a medical facility for treatment for her facial wound, according to police.
Then, more officers tracked Economou down trying to lose their pursuit in a creek bed, police said.
Economou and Bertrand were locked up in El Dorado County jail.
Economou was being held in lieu of $200,000 bail after being slapped with assault with a deadly weapon and mayhem .
Bertrand was booked just for assault with deadly weapon, and being held on a $50,000 bail.
Both suspects appeared in their creepy mugshots with purple and yellow bruises splotching their faces and shooting empty expressions.
"The sad part was, she’s the good Samaritan. She reached out and just told these girls, 'you can’t damage the things in our town,'" restaurant owner Dana LeBlanc, a who helped the wounded women, KCRA reported.
"She was trying to help and got attacked."
LeBlanc acknowledged the cruelty her friend suffered.
"We did see her injury and it was pretty profound," she said.
"I'm sad for her."
The GoFundMe page detailed how Hall was ganged up on trying to stop two women from defacing downtown establishments.
“As most know Kristine Hall was attacked on Main Street Halloween night after running into two girls who were vandalizing businesses downtown,” read the crowdfunding page, that appeared to be started by Tiffany Moore.
It suggested Hall was recuperating at UC Davis hospital “waiting to see if she needs to undergo surgery to remove her eye.”
It continued: “We are asking for donations to help while she recovers.”
So far, the effort has raised nearly $18,000.
Bob and Carolyn Mitchell who donated $1,000 think the world of Hall.
“I've known this sweet woman since she was a teenager,” read their post.
“She once told me when she was a kid that she secretly wished I was her father… It made me cry then and this makes me cry now….
“Heal well sweetheart.”
