Arrest Warrant Issued For Zero Dark Tony

Anthony Robert D'Amato Jr is wanted for violating the terms of his bail agreement

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Shannon K. Cooley issued a bench warrant two days ago for livestreamer Anthony Robert D’Amato Jr., who refers to himself as “Zero” Dark Tony - after D’Amato suddenly told his attorney he was in the hospital and couldn’t attend a mandatory court hearing.

For the first time, this publication has obtained over 30 pages of previously unseen court records detailing allegations against D’Amato, which are so disturbing that as a warning to readers, they contain statements of explicit violence and targeted harassment towards an activist protesting the Church of Scientology.

The motions, which were filed on October 6 and October 28, as prosecutors attempted to have D’Amato’s $50,000 bail revoked in connection with his initial arrest earlier this year for allegedly stalking this activist, show a pattern of threatening to sexually assault him, kill him and silence anyone who supported him over D’Amato. According to the filings, members of his audience also targeted the activist.

Throughout this case, as well as in other civil cases involving D’Amato, one of the more bizarre aspects has been the fact that all the people he targets are critics of the Church of Scientology - something which has never been fully explored or understood.
