Man Sentenced to 23 Years in Prison for Domestic Violence

Isaias Arana (DOB 04/16/95), of San Fernando, was sentenced by Judge Patricia Murphy to 23 years in state prison for multiple domestic violence charges. On August 9, 2019, Arana pled guilty to kidnapping and personally discharging a firearm during the commission of the kidnapping, burglary of an occupied residence with use of a firearm, false imprisonment by violence with use of a firearm, disobeying a domestic violence restraining order, and battery. 

On April 24, 2019, Arana drove from San Fernando to Fillmore to contact his estranged wife. Arana shot through the front door and a window in order to gain entry into the home. Once inside, Arana held two victims at gun point and forced his estranged wife into his vehicle, which he drove to Pacoima. A friend and bystanders were eventually able to wrestle the firearm from Arana.

This case was investigated by the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office with assistance from the Los Angeles Police Department and prosecuted by the District Attorney’s Sexual Assault and Family Protection Unit.
