Navy officer found dead same day she's due in court for order of protection

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/crime/ny-news-navy-officer-dead-court-day-order-protection-20180919-story.html

Earlier this month, Washington was granted a temporary order of protection against a man who she described as “someone I was living with in a relationship,” according to court documents obtained by ABC News. She claimed the man attacked her on Sept. 1 after she requested he pay the bills.

He “pushed me down to the floor, kicked me in my stomach, chased me to the bedroom and pulled a gun on me,” she said, adding he also kicked holes in the bedroom and closet doors, took her vehicle and mailbox keys and destroyed her iPad.

Washington also noted that she went to the emergency room the next morning.

She was due in court hours after her body was discovered Monday, where Duval County Circuit Court Judge Hugh Carithers was slated to decide whether or not to extend her order of protection. But in a heavily redacted report released on Tuesday, sheriffs officials wrote the homicide is not related to domestic violence.

I hope that creep gets what’s deserved. Life in prison with no chance of parole.
