• Sonya Deville Receiving Death Threats From Unknown People Amid Stalker Case
WWE SmackDown wrestler Sonya Deville escaped a kidnapping attempt at her home made by an individual named Thomas A. Phillip II a few weeks ago.
The criminal is under Police custody right now, but Deville’s problems haven’t ended.
In a court filing shared by HeelByNature, Deville and her ex-girlfriend Ariana Johnson both qualify as “victim or witness at risk of harm”. Johnson has already been threatened by Thomas for her association with Deville.
The court granted that motion as Deville has been receiving additional threats from unknown individuals. The threatening messages included, “I’ll finish the job that Phillip started”, and “My knife is sharper than Phillp’s”.
Deville is currently off WWE programming as she lost a No Disqualification, Loser Leaves WWE match to Mandy Rose at SummerSlam this past Sunday.
