On Friday, October 8, the Office of the District Attorney General Charme P. Allen in Knox County, Tennessee, announced in a press release that Paschel, 44, is guilty of aggravated kidnapping, domestic assault and interference with emergency calls.

The verdict came after a two-day televised trial. Judge Kyle Hixson has revoked the TLC reality star’s bond and has ordered him into custody. Sentencing still needs to be carried out and will take place on December 3, 2021.
Geoffrey Paschel’s criminal history

As reported by People, Paschel has a lengthy criminal history and is facing between 12 to 20 years behind bars without the possibility of parole. Among the charges against him are convictions for possession with intent to sell a Schedule I controlled substance, possession with intent to sell Schedule II cocaine and federal drug trafficking.

However, the list of crimes increased after police responded to a domestic disturbance in June 2019. At the time, Wilson told the police that Paschel had assaulted her in her home. Allegedly, he grabbed her by the neck and slammed her head against a wall several times. He also allegedly threw her to the ground and then dragged her. The former TLC reality star also reportedly took Wilson’s cellphone and prevented her from leaving the residence. However, she did eventually escape to a neighbor’s house after Paschel fell asleep.

At the time of the incident, officers reported bruises and abrasions on Wilson and she was also diagnosed with a concussion. However, at the trial, Paschell claimed the bruises were self-inflicted.

Paschel appeared in season 4 of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 days with Russian beauty, Varya Malina in 2020. On the show, the couple became engaged. However, at the end of the season, Geoffrey was not invited to take part in the Tell-All due to the allegations of domestic abuse against him.

At the time, he said in an Instagram Live that he wasn’t sad he wasn’t on the Tell-All. “The mentality of keeping me off the tell-all because somebody said something is the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard in my life… I want my court case to be over with, and as soon as my court case is over with, then my life will proceed.”

Meanwhile, Varya also addressed her own absence from the Tell-All. She simply wrote on her Instagram Story, “I’m not the right person to ask that question because that was kind of … not only my decision.”

Obviously, both parties were covered by an NDA with TLC, so Malina couldn’t truly open up. However, addressing the rumors that she and Geoffrey had split, she said, “Be patient please and stay tuned,” adding, “You will know the truth. I don’t like to hide something about my life.”

90 Day Fiancé fans will now have to wait until December 3, 2021, to find out Paschel’s sentence.
