A San Luis Obispo man in jail after he severely beat his 51-year-old girlfriend on Nov. 5, police said.

Shortly before 6 a.m., a caller reported an injured woman near the intersection of Prado Road and Higuera Street. Officers arrived to find a woman suffering from facial injuries.

The victim said her boyfriend, 53-year-old Albert Jason Lucas II, beat her at a transient encampment near the 3100 block of S. Higuera Street.

Responders transported the woman to a local hospital for treatment of her injuries.

After a short search, officers located Lucas near Elks Lane and Prado Road where he was taken into custody without incident. Lucas was in possession of evidence related to the assault, police said.

Officers booked Lucas in the San Luis Obispo County Jail on felony charges of domestic violence, torture, assault with a deadly weapon and violating a restraining order. He was also charged with a misdemeanor charge of possession of a controlled substance.

On Nov. 7, investigators added charges of attempted murder, false imprisonment and dissuading a witness by force or threat. Lucas remains in custody without bail.

A violent criminal out on the street. How is it we live in a society that allows this to be? Can we please have some common sense back? Don’t you think this is a perfect candidate for ASH?

This guy has been in and out of jail about 10 times in the last 30 years. Each time multiple serious offenses. Judicial administrators and politicians needs to get a grip on crime if they want to keep their positions. Voters in the elections gave politicians a hot tip to kick it up a notch.
