The woman accused of an alleged three-day kidnapping and violent assault faces a $250,000 bond to be released from custody.

Hannah Viramontes, 26, appeared for her virtual advisement hearing on Monday afternoon after being arrested last week when she allegedly held her former romantic partner and current roommate at gunpoint and repeatedly threatened to kill her, according to her arrest affidavit previously obtained by The Gazette.  

Police received a 911 call about a gunshot in the 1200 block of Kingsley Drive on Dec 2. At the same same time, another 911 call came in, where the caller said she was being held hostage, and had shot at their captor.

Officers arrived on the scene and found Viramontes suffering from a gunshot wound. She was taken to a hospital for surgery.

Inside a nearby house, police found a woman with numerous injuries.

The woman told police that she had been speaking with her roommate, Viramontes, on Nov. 30, when she suddenly struck the victim in the face and pulled out a handgun, demanding that she lie on the ground and put her hands behind her back. The woman said Viramontes proceeded to handcuff her, punch and kick her, and cut her with a pocketknife.

According to the affidavit, the woman suffered continued abuse, including being stabbed with pens, burned with a lighter or cigarette, penetrative sexual assault and the threat of death over the course of days, with Viramontes handcuffing herself to the victim at night.

At the advisement hearing Judge Cynthia McKedy imposed a $250,000 bond on Viramontes due to the “extremely aggravated” accusations.

“You’re a danger to this community,” McKedy said.

Prosecutors also informed the court that the named victim in the case had expressed that they were “terrified” of Viramontes being released because the victim believes “that she will hurt someone” if released.

Prosecutors had asked for a bond of $150,000.

Viramontes will return to court Dec. 19 for her first appearance.
