Admittedly, not all the facts are known here.

But this is an illustration of the futility of having “ A RESTRAINING ORDER”.
The Judge will not be there to keep the guy off or away from you.
Thr local police are tied upon crimes already committed and can not do anything unless the perpetration is clearly in violation.

William and Nicole Porter, both 22, were each booked on one count of murder

What? Did they get him in an ambush or a crossfire? sheesh! There have got to be facts missing from this case.

This is why I will not willingly go back to the People’s Republic of California. I thought the 9th Circus Court allowed you to defend life and from bodily harm, but not property (someone please get me out of their jurisdiction). I live in Idaho now and the CCW laws are reasonable and for an upstanding citizen it is very little trouble to get your license. The wife and I go everywhere armed (except those places prohibited by Federal or State law).

The individual going to the woman’s aid should be commended not condemned for risking his life (and now liberty) to save hers. The world is truly upside down.

Start a fight with a presumably unarmed person who isn’t on your property - and then finish it with a gun? Oops. They’re going down.

Hmm, what do we have here??

The woman woke him up and the two argued, Cornicelli said (Capt. Mary Cornicell). She left her first-floor unit and went to the Porters' upstairs apartment to get help .... Minutes later, the ex-boyfriend pounded on the Porters' door, Cornicelli said. No one answered and he left, she said.
“He was yelling for them to 'Come on out. I'm going to kill you,' ” Cornicelli said.
Then, Cornicelli said, William and Nicole Porter each armed themselves with a handgun. ... “And then Mr. Porter, obviously feeling threatened for himself, his wife and the other woman, decides to go outside and attempt to hold the suspect for police,” Cornicelli said.

The two men argued and then fought in a grassy area just outside the apartment. The man was shot.

Police have two days to present the case to prosecutors, who will decide whether to charge or release the Porters.

I'd say "release". But then again, I'm not %$#%ing INSANE!!!

Ah yes, no break-up is complete without a restraining order. ;-)

Good thing the neighbors were exercising their 2nd amendment rights

Sounds like manslaughter to me.

The 47-year-old victim hasn't been identified

The guy is a casualty, no way he's a victim. He initiated the affair.
