Suspect in custody in possible double homicide of missing mother and child

“Meanwhile, court records show that last September, Lovett turned to the courts for protection from the girl’s father, seeking a no-contact order against him.
In a Sept. 14 hearing before family court Judge Steve Lipton, Lovett said the girl’s father became aggressive toward her when she said he came home drunk and high on drugs nine days earlier.
“He was under the influence of heavy drugs and alcohol,” Lovett told Lipton, according to a transcript of the hearing placed on the court file.
“His behaviour was very bizarre, aggressive. He wanted me to give him some money to get some more drugs and alcohol and I said ‘no,’ and he kicked open the main door.”
Lovett said the girl’s father looked for her purse and then she told him to wait downstairs while she went upstairs to retrieve some money, which was actually a ruse.
“I locked my bedroom door and called 911 and he kicked open our bedroom door and got on top of me trying to get the phone. At that point I was really scared he was going to harm me and my child.”
She said police eventually showed up, but the man had already left.
“There was nothing they could do at that point because he didn’t physically harm us,” Lovett said.
Lipton granted the emergency protection order, but 13 days later Court of Queen’s Bench Justice Scott Brooker revoked it after hearing from both Lovett and the girl’s father, an indication the parties had resolved their differences.”
