As far as I know, there is no media outlet in NYC keeping track of the dead bodies. Man fatally shoots ex-girlfriend weeks after menacing her with knife: cops
"How dare you live without me!" That is an attitude that never works out.
A man was busted this week for fatally shooting his ex-girlfriend in Brooklyn – just weeks after he was released for allegedly menacing her with a knife.
He served years in prison for robbery before being paroled. And He served time for separate weapons and an assault charges before that. She still decided to date him.
Elves was arrested a day later – and told authorities he shot Pearson because she took out an order of protection and “was threatening to use that against him,” police said.
No one in New York City, not the politicians, or the cops or the prosecutors, and not even the NY Post will see that this chain of events means that what the dead woman really needed, was a 9mm pistol, a case of ammo, some instruction, and a concealed carry permit. No. You see NY State and City view concealed carry as a problem. You need to rely on The System™ even though they couldn't keep a violent criminal in prison; that would be unfair.
Most recently, on July 25, Elves allegedly menaced Pearson with a knife, a criminal complaint shows. He was released on his own recognizance because the charges were not bail-eligible, according to the DA’s office.
THAT is The System™ that you are supposed to bet your life on. They will turn him loose again and again until he kills you.
So a violent criminal was turned free, until he actually killed someone. Great system you have there.
"she took out an order of protection"

Yes, I'm familiar with Castle Rock.
DeleteIf you read this blog in the past you would see that while court orders of protection don't offer any real protection they can offer some protection against the courts.
Cops: "Why did you shoot him?"
Victim: "Well he showed up in violation of this court order and tried to assault/rape/kill me."
They are as I say "interesting legal documents."
DeleteThat said, if you think you need an order of protection, you also need a plan for you personal safety. I like fast-moving lead, but that is clearly not for everyone.
I also say that I think everyone who gets an order of protection should get a 9mm, a case of ammo, some firearms instruction from the local police force and an emergency concealed carry permit. But that can't happen in a lot of the country.
