CHUBBUCK — A 40-year-old felon faces numerous criminal charges after police say he attacked a local woman, threatened several others with a knife and slashed the tires of a pickup truck.

Jonathan Lynn Henery, of Pocatello, has been charged with four counts of aggravated assault, second-degree kidnapping, domestic violence resulting in traumatic injury, malicious injury to property and intimidating a witness, all felonies following a Pocatello police investigation.

The Saturday incident unfolded at two locations but the investigation began when officers were dispatched to a home on Poole Avenue when witnesses observed a man, later identified as Henery, assaulting a woman — likely breaking her nose and fracturing her eye socket — damaging property and brandishing a knife, according to police and court records the Idaho State Journal obtained Monday.

At a residence on North Arthur Avenue, Henry punched the woman in the head and face while she was in the shower with her 14-year-old child present during the assault, police said.

Henery then forced the woman to leave the residence with him in his vehicle, a blue Buick, where he brandished a knife and threatened to kill her children and burn down her home if he went to jail, according to the report.

The vehicle eventually arrived at the Poole Avenue address, where witnesses called police around 11 a.m. Saturday after observing Henery assaulting the woman outside the home, police said.

Before police arrived, Henery slashed the tires of a red Ford F-350 pickup truck belonging to a local utility contractor, causing damage in excess of $1,000, according to court records.

Officers said Henery then brandished the knife at the three witnesses before fleeing the scene, police said.

Inside the Poole Avenue residence, officers located the woman with visible injuries, including heavy bleeding from what was described as a likely broken nose, a large “goose egg” on her left temple and bruising around her left eyebrow from a possible fractured orbital bone that appeared to be developing into a black eye, police said.

The woman also complained her elbow was injured and was transported by ground ambulance to Portneuf Medical Center for treatment of her injuries, the report says.

While officers investigated the Poole Avenue scene, the woman’s child told police Henery was likely returning to the North Arthur Avenue address to kill the family’s pet dog where a responding officer observed Henery running from an alleyway into the backyard of the home in the area, according to court records.

The officer called out to Henery to stop while identifying himself as law enforcement, but Henery ignored the command and fled, initiating a foot pursuit, police said.

During the chase, police said Henery crossed Main Street and attempted to enter the driver’s side door of a passing motorist’s vehicle but they sped away, preventing Henery from gaining entry, the report says.

Henery continued to flee but was taken into custody by officers at the intersection of North Main Street and West Custer Street around 11:16 a.m., according to court records.

At the hospital, the woman provided a detailed account of the assault and confirmed Henery had pulled a knife on the witnesses at the Poole Avenue residence, police said.

Court records note that Henery is known to Pocatello police to be affiliated with the Severely Violent Criminals, or SVC, a gang that began in the Idaho prison system in the early 2000s, according to Hatewatch.

Henery was subsequently charged and transported to the Bannock County Jail in Pocatello.

He appeared before 6th District Magistrate Judge David A. Hooste for an arraignment hearing Monday, where his bond was set at $100,000 and he was ordered to not have contact with the victims.

Henery is scheduled to appear in court again Feb. 9 for a preliminary hearing, where prosecutors will attempt to present sufficient evidence to elevate the case from magistrate to district court for trial.

If convicted of all of the felony charges filed against him, Henery faces no less than two years and up to 65 years in prison and a fine of up to $131,000.

In addition to the eight felony charges, prosecutors intend to seek a persistent violator enhancement against Henery, which could extend any prison sentence levied against him by no less than five years and up to life if he is convicted, according to court records.
