SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A pornographic film star from the 1990s is likely headed to prison for trying to kill his girlfriend in Sacramento two years ago.Marc Anthony Donais, a onetime Playgirl centerfold who later acted under the name Ryan Idol, was convicted of attempted murder Tuesday for beating the woman over the head with a porcelain toilet tank lid.
She testified he attacked her in her in-laws’ apartment in east Sacramento because she broke up with him. He said it was self-defense.
Deputy District Attorney Kevin Jones said the Sept. 5, 2009, attack resulted from long-standing jealousy on Donais’ part — despite his testimony that he never worried about his girlfriend wanting sex from other men “because ours was so great.”
“I think the jury was able to recognize that his narcissism and ego basically led him to where he was,” Jones said.
Donais faces a maximum of 15 years in prison when he next sees Sacramento Superior Court Judge Troy L. Nunley. Sentencing is scheduled for Dec. 9.
