Navarro was a methamphetamine addict who once pointed a gun at her, his wife alleged in court filings.
Jesse C. Navarro, the man who the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department said fatally shot Deputy Darnell Cordero, was described in court documents as a violent methamphetamine addict who records show was once ordered to turn in his gun.
It’s unclear whether Navarro complied with that order or whether he used the same weapon to kill Cordero, 30, who was gunned down as heon Hilldale Lane on Jan. 13 in the unincorporated Lakeland Village community near Lake Elsinore. Navarro’s wife, Yvette Navarro, filed a request for a temporary restraining order in 2004 that listed four children living at their Wildomar home, daughters ages 5, 4 and 17 months, and a 4-month-old son.
“He pull my hair and wrestle me in bed,” she wrote in a Superior Court filing. “He told me I will pay for it for trying to get a restraining order.”A judge granted the temporary restraining order, which said Jesse Navarro had to remain at least 100 yards away from the family and either sell or turn in his gun. But the case was closed when neither one of the couple showed up for the hearing for a permanent restraining order, court records show.
He became upset, she wrote, when she wouldn’t allow him to drive the children to school when he was high or hadn’t “slept in days.”The judge denied her request for a temporary restraining order, citing a lack of proof of abuse.Navarro remained hospitalized in critical condition Wednesday, the Sheriff’s Department said.
