The Glendale Police Department seeks public assistance to locate potential sexual battery victims. Marcello Tagliente, the owner of a local insurance training school in Glendale, has been implicated in several alleged sexual battery cases starting from 2020, the Glendale Police Department reported.
Tagliente owns and runs MGT Insurance, situated on W. Broadway. He would reportedly entice students into his office under the pretext of helping them prepare for licensure exams. In these instances, Tagliente would allegedly sexually assault them, claims KTLAG.
The Glendale Police initiated an investigation in 2020, resulting in the arrest of Tagliente by department detectives. Since his first arrest, three additional reports have surfaced, pointing to more incidents of sexual battery involving Tagliente. He has been recently formally charged with sexual battery, and authorities are in search of additional possible victims.
The victims who've come forward and shared their experiences have played a vital role to quickly bring out this incident to move on the course of justice.
As the Glendale Police Department seeks public assistance to find possible victims, it underscores our collective response to such callous acts. If you have any information or if you're a victim, please contact the Glendale Police Department Assaults Bureau at 818-548-4840.
