"Millionaire Matchmaker" is back on the headlines as the 2nd Millionaire participant is facing charges after brutalizing a woman.

The latest participant that's facing trial is the 30-year-old, John Bonavia. He made the headlines after facing numerous charges.

Bonavia was featured on "Millionaire Matchmaker" last March 20, 2014. He's a financial adviser worth $1 million as of the show's feature.

As per Perez Hilton, John Bonavia was arrested just this month, September 12, in Beverly Hills, California after brutally attacking a woman. Bonavia beat her up so badly that cops decided to charge him attempted murder. Upon investigation, police found the woman's body that was battered and covered in blood after a neighbor complained about fighting noises coming from the millionaire's house. Adding insult to injury, Bonavia was not helping himself by being uncooperative during the whole investigation. He was charged with 'felony injury on a cohabitant and for making criminal threats.'

Additional reports then emerged that this isn't his first charge on domestic abuse. Last 2014, he was also charged for brutally attacking is girlfriend. As TMZ's report, he hit her with his fist and choked her.

In early September, the 62-year-old Michael Bernback, was charged and arrested after raping three women he met online. The former participant worth $12.3 million was arrested after luring woman in his Sherman Oaks home. All his victims were 20 years old in which he sexually assaulted them on separate occasions within September 2014 to August 11, 2015.
