A teenage mom allegedly murdered by her ex-boyfriend in a double homicide had twice tried to get orders of protection against him — repeatedly warning that she was “terrified” he was “going to kill” her.
Nalyn Reeves, 19, was gunned down alongside fellow mom Undrea Willis, 25, in a Montgomery, Ala. home on Monday, allegedly by Tarus Giles, the father of Reeve’s 10-month-old child, according to Al.com
The killer broke in through a living room window when the women locked the front door — then shot them both in front of their kids, police said. Both moms were declared dead at the scene.
In the year before her death, Reeves had twice tried to get protection from Giles, who was out on bond on a third-degree burglary charge when he allegedly murdered both women.
“I am terrified of Tarus,” Reeves wrote in a filing just months before she was killed. “I am afraid that he is eventually going to kill me or, worse, hurt my child.”
Reeves first sought a protection-from-abuse order in September last year, accusing Giles of beating her and threatening her life when she was still pregnant with his child.
“Tarus physically beat me from 9 a.m.–11 a.m., blacked my eye, gave me knots, busted my nose,” she said in the filing, AL.com reported.
“Tarus has been threatening my family and I,” she said. “He has told people when he finds me, he will kill me.”
Giles also threatened to kill her and the unborn baby, and returned to the location with a knife. She escaped and ran to a neighbor’s home for help, according to the document.
Neither Reeves nor Giles attended the restraining order hearing in November, so a judge dismissed it.
Reeves tried again the same month to get protection from Giles, whom she had broken up with after the birth of their child.
She claimed that Giles had yanked one of her braids out of her head when they fought during their breakup.
That restraining order was dismissed in April because the papers were never served to Giles, court records show.
Giles was arrested Wednesday and charged with two counts of capital murder in the presence of a child under 14, one count of capital murder of two or more people and one count of capital murder during a burglary.
Video posted by the Montgomery Police Department showed the accused murderer being hauled into a police cruiser in handcuffs. He is scheduled to appear on court Friday.
The Montgomery Police Department did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
