In a recent interview with @teamtrace, Zemaitis said he did not remember the specifics of Reilly's order.
But in general, he said, judges need to be cautious about restricting a person's gun rights without sufficient evidence.https://bit.ly/3qSRrb3
While Reilly had checked a box asserting that Kelley had guns and had threatened her with them, Zemaitis said she did not mention it in the narrative. This could have been why he didn't order the gun restriction for Kelley. https://bit.ly/3qSRrb3 pic.twitter.com/PcyRObjP8g
Experts and advocates say it's unreasonable to expect domestic violence victims to present their evidence perfectly during a terrifying situation. Advocates also say that the bar is high for a person to get a temporary protective order — and that should be enough to bar guns.pic.twitter.com/A0zDsagvZU
—In eight states, the subject of a temporary protective order is automatically barred from having a gun. —In 13 states, including Michigan, the decision is left in the hands of a judge. —In 29 states and Washington, D.C., there is no process for taking guns away from the subject.
James Rasor, family attorney for the Reillys, says the wonder of the story is that Reilly and her family did everything right. They called the police on Kelley at least 15 times in six weeks. Reilly went to court for a protective order. She asked them to take his guns.pic.twitter.com/xuxwy2KNuF
Photos of Reilly cover the walls of her family's Michigan home. "I always told her, 'Have the best day of your life, because you never know what tomorrow will hold,'" her mother, Pam, remembered. https://bit.ly/3qSRrb3 pic.twitter.com/657Swbx0JJ
Days after Reilly's body was laid to rest, her aunt, Noreen Axsom, found a notebook that belonged to Reilly.
Inside she had written: "I just want to live by myself in my own place. I just want to start my life."

Why even have the box on the form, then? Just for statistics after they’re murdered?
Seriously! And they only have one paragraph to explain a whole history of threatening behavior?? Jesus Christ. That form was definitely designed by a male. I just can’t get over how point blank the question she marked Yes to was and they still said it’s not enough to take the gun
How is she supposed to detail all of that information in 240 words? A reasonable person would leave that out of the narrative since there is a box to check indicating the gun ownership and violence.
She said he owned guns,she checked the proper box that he THREATENED HER WITH HIS GUN!!!But his excuse us she didn't manually write that out so it wasn't pertinent info!!!!Disbar n debench this incompetent judge,n all like him ASAP!!
Ah, blaming the victim for not being able to craft the perfect narrative in a tweet. Zemaitis should be recalled for that.
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
Rosemarie Reilly knew her ex-boyfriend Jeremy Kelley might hurt her. But when she sought a restraining order, a Kent County, Michigan judge allowed Kelley to keep his guns.
Three weeks later, Reilly would be dead.
