Three arraigned for model’s slashing
Sunday forecast
attack. It was unclear what Nor-
man was supposed to get.
Warwick had asked that the
three suspects be held without
bail because Norman and
Bowman had made videotaped
statements to police, saying
Roth had hired them for the job.
“The victim has identified Mr.
Norman as the man who slashed
her with the razor blade and she
has identified Mr. Bowman as
the man who held her down dur-
ing the attack,” Warwick said.
Judge Herbert Adelbeig set
bail at $100,000 each for Bowman
and Norman. The next hearing
in the case is set for June 11.
NEW YORK (AP) - A judge
has set bail at $250,000 for the
landlord who allegedly hired two
men to attack and disfigure
fashion model Marla Hanson,
whose face was slashed with a
razor in a dispute over an $850
apartment security deposit.
The landlord, Steven Roth, 28,
a free-lance makeup artist, was
arraigned Friday in Manhattan
Criminal Court on an assault
charge. Ms. Hanson, with more
than 100 stitches across her face,
was recuperating Saturday In a
Manhattan hospital.
In court Friday, Assistant
District Attorney James War-
wick said Roth’s “clear intent
was to ruin the career of the vic-
tim.”
“It was Mr. Roth’s intention
not to pay the $850 but to in-
timidate her and have her hurt,”
he said. “This whole matter was
orchestrated by Mr. Roth.”
Two weeks ago Ms. Hanson
moved out of an apartment own-
ed by Roth and the two met in a
34th Street bar early Thursday
to discuss the security deposit.
Warwick said Roth hired
Steven Bowman? 27, and Daren
Norman, 20, both of Queens, to
stage a robbery nearby during
which they would disfigure the
24-year-old modfel..
The prosecutor said Roth had
promised to find Bowman an
apartment as payment for the
tion’s case weak, saying the only
substantive allegations came
from two men who tried to mug a
woman and got caught.
Bowman’s lawyer, Alton Mad-
dox, asked that his client be
released in his own recognizance
because he had roots and a job in
New York. Bowman’s father
works for the federal Food &
Drug Administration and his
mother is an employee of the
Transit Authority. The defen-
dant works for the Sanitation
Department.
Ms. Hanson’s were the worst
deliberately Inflicted wounds
he’d ever seen and was not op-
timistic about her regaining the
looks she had before the attack.
The scars could be improved
by plastic surgery, he said, “but
basically all scars like this are
permanent and we have to face
that reality.”
Ms. Hanson’s father, Robert,
of Dallas, arrived in New York
at 6:17 p.m. Friday on a Pan
American World Airways flight
from San Antonio paid for by the
airline, company spokesman
JeffKriendler said.
The airline also donated a
limousine for the trip from Kjfif-
nedy Airport to the hospitakSfi
Manhattan, where Hanson ars{£-

Hanson, 50, a financial p

added. “Obviously, I can’t do
anything about the state of mind
of the people who did this.
“As we say in Texas, ‘What
goes around comes around,’ and
I think it will apply. They’ll
come out far worse than her.”

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A tropical air mass blanketed most areas of the Lone Star
State Saturday, producing scattered showers and
thunderstorms over the upper Gulf Coast, Southeast Texas and
the lower Pecos Valley area.
A low-pressure trough along the Texas-New Mexico border
triggered showers and thunderstorms across the northwest
part of the Panhandle.
The National Weather Service said skies over most of North
and South Texas were partly cloudy while the far west and Con-
cho Valley had fair skies.
A flash flood warning issued earlier Saturday for Val Verde
County in South Texas expired.

mph. Soiiie low water crossings and low lying areas throughout
the Del Rio area flooded, the weather service said.
Skies over the southern half of the Panhandle, south plains,
Red River valley and a small spot over the coastal bend were
clear. Patches of fog shrouded the Del Rio and Kingsville
areas.
Early-morning temperatures dropped into the 50s in the
Davis Mountains, while the Corpus Christi and Laredo areas
had readings In the 80s.
Temperatures in the 60s and 70s dotted the north and the rest
of West Texas with readings in the 70s across the rest of South
Texas. Extremes at 4 a.m. were Marfa with 59 degrees and
Laredo 82 degrees. u
Winds were southerly throughout Texas at speeds generally
in the 5 to 10 mph range.
It should be warm and humid with scattered showers and
thunderstorms statewide through Sunday. Thunderstorms by
early Sunday over the southeast part of North Texas could pro-
