In a recent court session, an emergency protective order was issued for the protection of Nadia Guajardo, prohibiting the accused from committing any acts of assault or family violence against her. The order also restricts the individual from communicating directly or indirectly with Guajardo or her family in a threatening or harassing manner. Additionally, the accused is barred from possessing a firearm, and any existing handgun carry license has been suspended. Violations of this order could lead to further criminal charges, and it will remain in effect until midnight on September 17, 2024.

During the proceedings, the accused requested an attorney to be appointed, indicating a need for legal representation. The court also addressed the matter of a personal bond, stating that the request was not granted at this time.

Furthermore, the accused faces serious charges of third-degree felony injury to a child or elderly person, which carries a potential sentence of two to ten years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000. The implications of these charges and the protective order highlight the court's commitment to safeguarding vulnerable individuals while ensuring legal processes are followed.
