VEGAS ATTORNEY FIRED GUN AFTER CHOKING DOG, ASSAULTING JUDGE

Last week we reported the spooky coincidence of the judge who was elected to replace 400 pound Elizabeth Halverson (who was assaulted by her husband named Ed)--District Judge Stefany Miley being assaulted last week by her husband, attorney Ed Miley.

Now, more details about the domestic violence incident are being reported today by the Las Vegas Review Journal after examining court documents in connection with Judge Miley’s successful attempt to obtain a restraining order prohibiting barrister Miley (who represented OJ Simpson in his Vegas robbery case) to stay away from his wife and kids—following the lawyer’s arrest on two counts of domestic battery.

The blow-by-blow (so to speak) reported by the newspaper:

"According to the documents filed in the Family Division of Clark County District Court, Stefany Miley arrived home from her son's school and found her husband was visibly drunk.

“The document said she told her husband she wanted a divorce, and he began making "nasty comments" to her. “Her husband then "body slammed her, and came up behind her and hit her in the hip area," court documents said.

“The court papers said Edward Miley then became abusive with the family dog. The documents said Stefany Miley heard her dog yelping and went downstairs. She saw her husband grabbing the dog by the throat and threatening to kill it.


"Stefany Miley pulled the dog away from her husband, but he managed to chase the dog upstairs and began choking it. “The police report said the dog bit him when he was taking it out of the kennel at their home. Stefany Miley told police her husband was already drunk before being bitten.

“When police arrested Edward Miley, they saw blood on his hands and shirt, the police report said. The report added that a veterinarian service had been called for the dog. “According to the report, one of the couple's sons told police he saw his father hit his mom and choke the dog.”

What the Review Journal omitted from today’s article is the additional allegation that barrister Miley also discharged a weapon into the back yard during the domestic violence incident.

According to an on-line report yesterday published by Fox5Vegas.com:


“The judge said when she tried to stop her husband he pushed her to the floor in front of their children. [Miley] said he grabbed a gun and fired off several rounds in the backyard.”


According to the temporary protective order, Edward Miley is not allowed to be within 100 yards of his home, his children's elementary school and his wife's workplace, the Regional Justice Center.

Which should prove challenging for barrister Miley—a criminal defense attorney whose work is at the Regional Justice Center.
