‘Vanderpump Rules’ cameraman, Michael Ansbach has been arrested in connection to the deaths of two twenty-something women this past November.
The 47 year old cameraman has worked on several reality television shows like Dancing With The Stars, LA Ink, Shark Tank, and The Amazing Race. Now he has been taken into custody according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
Two more men, Brandt Osborn, 42, and David Pearce, 37 have also been arrested, Pearce for manslaughter and, like Ansbach, Osborn has been taken for accessory to manslaughter.
The charges come after model, Christy Giles and her friend, Hilda Marcela Cabrales-Arzola were dumped outside separate L.A. area hospitals after what Osborn described to a friend after the fact as “the craziest weekend of my life.”
‘Vanderpump Rules’ Cameraman Arrested For Accessory to Manslaughter in Death of a Model
“He told me how they’d partied, two girls came back to their place, and the girls had a bunch of drugs,” recalled the friend, actor David Murrietta Jnr.
The story continues that when Pearce checked and failed to find Giles’ pulse, in lieu of calling 911, he and Osborn discussed what to do with Giles’ body.
“Then they didn’t know what to do, they didn’t want to call 911 and get in trouble, so they decided to drive and drop her body at Culver City hospital,” Murrietta continued.
Upon returning home it was discovered Cabrales-Arzola was not doing well, her pulse thready at best. It was decided they would take her to a different hospital, also leaving her outside of emergency.
On November 13, Giles was found dead outside of the Southern California Hospital in Culver City. Cabrales-Arzola was unconscious when she was discovered at the Kaiser Permanente West Los Angeles hospital. She was admitted into the hospital but remained comatose for two more weeks before her family had to make the decision to take her off life support.
It has been said that Osborn and Pearce dumped the women at the hospitals together. It is unsure how cameraman Ansbach fits in, it is only known that he is a friend of Pearce’s.
“We would like anyone with any more information about them to come forward to the LAPD as soon as possible,” implored Giles’ husband, Jan Cilliers. The families of both women insist their loved ones were drugged and assaulted.
The LAPD has stated, “This is an active and ongoing investigation.”
