A jury this week found a 45-year-old Morro Bay man guilty of making criminal threats against his former girlfriend.

From Dec. 31, 2023 through Jan. 6, 2024, Eric Douglas Zentzis left over 50 voicemails and sent multiple text messages threatening his former girlfriend, who feared for her life. The offense is a “strike” under California’s Three Strikes Law.

Zentzis is scheduled to be sentenced on Nov. 6. He faces a maximum sentence of three years in state prison.

Another one who I would be fine with putting under the jail. Guys like this, entitled and vicious, think nothing of causing mortal harm to those who displease him. I hope that he is NEVER allowed a firearm, for sure. There are countless cases of guys like this getting out and going straight to the ex and killing them.


What about the other guy who beat up his ex and her bf? He owns the pot farm in Templeton near Tin City. County Sheriff loves him!
