charged with Assault and Battery

A Los Angeles school teacher has been charged with assault and battery in a scuffle that took place in November last year on Rancho Pensaquitos Boulevard in San Diego, California. The trial centers on the midday brawl that 36 year old John Matthew Monti had with a couple of day laborers at a hiring site. Prosecutors allege that Monti accosted a group of Mexican day laborers under the Highway 56 overpass, and attacked two of them. One of the men Estanislao Gonzalez testified at the trial, describing in detail how Monti punched him, chased him into the street, knocked him to the ground and proceeded to beat him up. Three hate crime charges have also been filed against Monti, based on the allegations that he violated the victims’ civil rights. San Diego Deputy City Attorney Scott Pirello alleged in his opening statement that the Los Angeles school teacher made racially based remarks during his alleged assault.
