1968 Playboy Playmate of the Year Angela Dorian has been charged with attempted murder -- after she allegedly shot her boyfriend from close range in their Hollywood apartment Saturday night ... TMZ has learned.



66-year-old Dorian -- aka Victoria Rathgeb -- aka Victoria Vetri -- (currently 5'5", 110 lbs) was arrested late Saturday night -- and is still behind bars. Bail has been set at $1,000,000.

Law enforcement sources tell us ... they believe Dorian and her BF were having an argument that turned physical -- and that's when Dorian grabbed a handgun and fired at least one shot into her boyfriend's upper body. The boyfriend was rushed to a nearby hospital -- we're told he's expected to survive.

When authorities first arrived to the scene, Dorian told cops that her boyfriend was shot by a drug dealer.

If convicted, Dorian could face up to life in prison.

1. Good to get her measurements in, that's important.

:D

3. I only saw height and weight

an important factor in the use of a weapon, and extenuating circumstances.

depending on how much of an asshole her ex is, could easily justify her use of a firearm.

What I don't understand is how is her plight any more important than the countless women who are assaulted every year?
But if this brings light to that, then maybe it's not a bad thing.

9. Her 'plight?'

She shot a person - there is no indication of domestic abuse or any "plight" in the story.

And no, her ex possibly being an asshole is *not* justification for assault with or without a weapon. Christ on a stick - sometimes women, like men, do bad things. Inventing some excuse to make her appear to be a victim is just mind-bogglingly stupid.

4. isnt that ridiculous. my thought, when have i ever seen stats on appearance

placed with an arrest of attempted murder.

absurd. and the world we live.

my thought was... geesh, one would hope at that age we are done with the drama and trauma of love and fuckin grow up. i guess not for all of us

10. would this even be "news" if she wasn't a Playboy bunny?

:evilgrin:

[seabeyond]

12. yup

11. Consider the source.

2. Drug Dealer? Bad Excuse.

if you're going to shoot your boyfriend, claim self defense. Duh.

While a part of me wonders what will come out of this, for the most part I realize it doesn't really matter or affect my life. There are so many more important things happening.

7. If she using "drug dealer" as her excuse, one can only wonder what the rest of her life is like. nt

8. i am thinking it is a fine way of telling world, drug user.... look for criminal activity

beyond attempted murder.... right here. rollin eyes.

5. She was in Rosemary's Baby - as the girl who jumped to her death

when she found out what the Castavets had in store for her (or was she pushed?). One of my favorite films.

6. The good news is, it looks like she's single now!
