Long Island bodybuilder Dino Tomassetti Jr., accused of shooting his parents on Christmas day, allegedly fired on the couple during a custody dispute over his one-year-old baby, Nassau County police said Wednesday.
Tomassetti Jr., 29, was arraigned Wednesday afternoon on two counts of attempted murder. He was placed back in custody directly after the hearing on Long Island and no bail has been set.
The argument over the child reportedly escalated at about 10 a.m. on December 25. The hulking trainer allegedly tried to leave the family's 8,751 square-foot Hewlett Harbor mansion with the child, but his parents tried to stop him, according Nassau Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder.
'He became involved in a domestic dispute with his parents who were caring for the one-year-old, during that argument it obviously escalated,' Ryder said during a Wednesday morning press conference. '[He] tried to take the child from [his] parents and attempted to leave the residence. When the parents objected, the defendant produced a .22-caliber pistol.'
The police commissioner said the child's mother and the infant witnessed the shooting.
Tomassetti Jr. allegedly shot his mother, Vencenza Tomassetti, 64, in the head near the left temple, and then turned the pistol on his father, Rocco Tomassetti, 65, whom he shot in the back and the wrist, according to police.
'He struck his father then in the head with the gun numerous times after he ran out of bullets,' Ryder said.
Both parents underwent surgery and have been released from the hospital. Rocco got out on December 27 and Vencenza was let go on December 28.
The child is currently with his birth mother, according to the Nassau police commissioner. Tomassetti Jr. is due back in court on January 5. His lawyer Marco Laracca told DailyMail.com that he would apply for bail around that time.

Or just an evil person?
Wow … a resident of New York City will willingly enter and try to stay in New Jersey…
The Yankees are getting restless.
steroids????
That must be part of his future insanity plea.
Planet of the apes 🤪
He took one step to the left and didn’t expect the cops to find him. He’s not too bright.
I’m pretty sure he won’t be granted custody.
When your Italian parents are siding with the mother against their son, you know the son has major problems.
Roid rage....evil.....or.....Spoiled Brat on roids, that is evil because he’s a rich kid, had everything handed to him and he thinks he’s untouchable.
Yeah, it’s usually the other way around.
“He’s cuffed and extradited to New York after after fleeing to New Jersey”
Might as well turn yourself in if you think you’ll have more freedom in New Jersey than the pokie.
“That must be part of his future insanity plea.”
Running off to New Jersey also helps with that defense, as no sane person would go there, for any reason.
“His lawyer Marco Laracca told DailyMail.com that he would apply for bail around that time.”
LOL
Let me wonder which Color Lives Matter....
Wow..both parents are alive
Ok do guys really think that is attractive?
Because frankly it looks like a super mutant.
