Israeli OnlyFans model Adva Lavi, 29, who also uses the name Mia Ventura, will remain in custody in Los Angeles<\/a> after a judge ruled on Friday that she posed a flight risk due to repeated violations of the conditions of her release.<\/p>\n

The hearing followed Lavi’s third arrest in just a few months. On Tuesday evening, she was arrested by Beverly Hills police as she left the upscale Azul restaurant near Rodeo Drive after police in Indio, Riverside County, east of Los Angeles, issued a warrant<\/a> for her arrest.<\/p>\n

According to the latest allegations, in April 2025, during the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, one of the world’s largest music festivals held over two weekends each April in Indio, Lavi, who identified herself as Mia Ventura, stole luxury items worth more than $11,000 from at least two victims, including a Rolex watch valued at approximately $8,600, Louis Vuitton sunglasses, and a card holder from the French luxury brand.<\/p>\n

According to reports, some of the alleged thefts were captured on the apartment’s security cameras and on the Tesla cameras of one of the victims, evidence that later led Riverside County authorities to obtain an arrest warrant against her.<\/p>\n

Her legal troubles only deepened when police officers noticed that Lavi was no longer wearing the electronic ankle monitor she had been required to wear as a condition of her release in her previous case.<\/p>\n

As a result, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office filed an additional charge alleging that she violated a court order<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Lavi’s highly publicized legal saga began in October 2025, when the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department asked the public for help locating her in connection with a series of alleged burglaries and thefts targeting older, wealthy men she had met through dating applications. Investigators allege that between 2023 and 2025 she developed relationships with the victims, entered their homes, and stole cash, gold, and luxury items.<\/p>\n

In March 2026, prosecutors filed serious charges against her, including theft, residential burglary, and unlawful use of personal information. Lavi pleaded not guilty and was released on bail under the conditions that she wear an electronic monitoring device and remain within Los Angeles County.<\/p>\n

Since then, she has repeatedly run into further legal trouble. In June, she was arrested twice for allegedly violating the conditions of her release, including leaving Los Angeles County.<\/p>\n

She claimed she had crossed the county line while visiting a restaurant in Malibu, only to discover that it was located in the neighboring county. Despite prosecutors’ requests that she be returned to custody, judges at the time opted to issue warnings instead.<\/p>\n

The case has also drawn attention because of Lavi’s relationship with 64-year-old Jewish billionaire Steven Cloobeck, a former California gubernatorial candidate. Cloobeck was himself arrested in May on suspicion of attempting to influence witnesses in her case.<\/p>\n

The two had informed acquaintances in February that they planned to marry in Jerusalem in June, but following her latest arrest, it was reported that the planned wedding had been called off and that Cloobeck had also stopped funding her legal defense.<\/p>\n

At Friday’s hearing, the judge said that “nothing will ensure that she appears for trial anymore,” adding, “She wants everything to happen on her own terms.”<\/p>\n

Local Los Angeles media reported that Lavi, who was brought into the courtroom in handcuffs and wearing a blue prison uniform, requested a Hebrew interpreter despite speaking fluent English.<\/p>\n

Lavi, also known as Ventura, is currently being held in Los Angeles County Jail<\/a> while awaiting further proceedings in both cases, the main case in Los Angeles County and the new case in Riverside County. She faces serious felony charges and, if convicted on all counts, prosecutors could seek a sentence of 10 years in prison or more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Israeli OnlyFans model Adva Lavi, 29, who also uses the name Mia Ventura, will remain in custody in…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":977592,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[5123],"tags":[12424,1582,276,2961,224,5337,18417,6585,5332,8156],"class_list":["post-977591","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-arrest","tag-ca","tag-california","tag-la","tag-los-angeles","tag-losangeles","tag-model","tag-onlyfans","tag-prison","tag-theft"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/117030984624695352","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/977591","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=977591"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/977591\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/977592"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=977591"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=977591"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=977591"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
