NAPA, Calif. (KRON) - Nathan Ballard, a prominent Democratic strategist and longtime Gov. Gavin Newsom friend and adviser, was arrested on two felony domestic violence charges in Napa.
The allegations include the attempt to suffocate a four-year-old child with a pillow.
Ballard, 51, was booked on October 18 on two felony charges of willful cruelty to a child with possible injury and death and domestic violence, according to the Napa County Sheriff's Office.
This adds to a recent rough patch for Newsom who admitted to attending a birthday party at the high-end French Laundry last month, which he was heavily criticized for.
This is a developing story and will be updated as more details come in.
