TMZ reports;
Michael Jace was a violent, abusive husband who choked his wife in front of their kid … this according to legal docs from his prior divorce in 1997.
A friend of Jennifer Bitterman claims she personally witnessed Jace choking and slamming Jennifer against a wall as his 6month-old son screamed in his crib next to them.
April Jace -- who was killed by a gunshot at the hands of Michael -- got involved in Michael's messy divorce to his previous wife and defended him to the hilt ... even though there were claims of brutality. Continue.April told the divorce judge that Michael provided a stable home for his child, though she never addressed the claims he choked and hit Jennifer Bitterman and slammed her against the wall in front of their screaming son. In fact April actually attacked Jennifer by calling her a bad mom...
The most bone-chilling thing .... April talked about Michael's son with Jennifer, saying, "Usually at bedtime, he [Jordan, the child] prays for his mom and asks God to protect her while he's not there with her."
And this is interesting ... April had a degree in Early Childhood/Adolescence development.
The friend says he was raging and out of control and “seeing the extent of his anger was one of the most terrifying things I have ever seen.”
The friend continues … there were multiple physical assaults on the ex-wife. Still April went ahead and married him.
Earlier report
Actor Michael Jace called police himself to report his wife had been shot, and he had pulled the trigger Monday night in Los Angeles… TMZ has learned.
According to law enforcement sources Jace called 911 around 8:30 PM and told police … “I shot my wife.”
We’re told Jace’s neighbors in the Hyde Park area of L.A. had reported shots fired in the home … and shortly thereafter Jace made his call to 911.
Sources tell us the actor stayed on the phone, as instructed, until LAPD arrived and found his 40-year-old wife, April Jace dead.
We’re told Jace was home alone when his wife arrived with their kids … a short time later he allegedly shot her.
Jace — best know as Detective Lowe from “The Shield” — was taken into custody, and as of 1:00 AM Tuesday … was being questioned, but had not been booked for his wife’s death.
How wicked he is, ladies need to be careful the kind of men they go into relationship with or get married to

Only cowards and insecure men abuse women!

Ladies are their own worst enemies, I'm saying and I will still say it.
She was feeling fly tagging the ex-wife a bad mom just because she wanted occupying her place.
A bad place, ladies see and know a violent man, but still insist on being with him...
Lord! I thank you for me, and the kind of brain I've got.
Phewww!
Murder!!!
ReplyDeleteCan women learn? This could have been me but 2 years ago I left an abusive relationship just a few weeks 2 d wedding, everything was set but I made a decision. There r still good men, pls don't settle 4 trash. Zuriel.
ReplyDeleteKarma takes time, stand for the truth always and it shall set you free, no let love carry you, it changes like seasons.
ReplyDeleteIts a pity she had to die that way,nobody deserves death in the hands of a supposed loved one.
ReplyDeleteBut all these babes who like to marry 2ND HAND HUSBANDS...ALWAYS FEELING LIKE I CAN BE A BETTER WIFE,UR WIFE IS A BITCH AND A NAG,I HOPE YOU DONT END UP SIX FEET BELOW BEFORE YOU REALISE THE MAN WAS THE PROBLEM.A Word Is Enough!!!

ReplyDeleteWell Karma was really a bitch this time.
ReplyDeleteA typical case of d cane used to beat d 1st wife is reserved for d 2nd wife.... unfortunately it led to her death. ladies run from abusive and violent relationships
ReplyDeleteNIGERIAN WOMEN, TAKE NOTE.

MY GF IS BLIND ON HER LEFT EYE BECAUSE SHE STAYED WITH AN ABUSIVE MAN WHILE SHE WAS CONSIDERING WHETHER TO PACK AND LEAVE AND WHAT THE SOCIETY WILL SAY ABOUT HER...HE ENDED UP STABBING HER IN THE EYE. HER NAME IS PRINCESS DEANE IGHO...google it.
ABUSE CAN BE PHYSICAL, VERBAL, EMOTIONAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL..ETC...WHICHEVER FORM IT COMES TO YOU...RUNNNNNN.
You see life? Now see what he did to her.
ReplyDeleteYou knew he had temper issues with his ex wife and u went ahead to marry him, some ladies though, sad as it is I dare say u brought it upon yourself, and this goes out to all those husband snatchers like the pomo lipped toad wife of Tchidii Chikere, d same way Sophia was thrown out of her home is the fate with more that awaits you.
ReplyDeleteWhat goes around comes around....RIP
ReplyDeletenow he'll dance to the music.

ReplyDeleteShe walked into her death! If only we could see the future or not believe so much in others.
ReplyDeletePure karma...d broom used in sweeping d first wife, would be waiting for d second...she even got it worse
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, if this is true then it is so sad. She knew he was abusive and still married him? May her soul RIP and let God help those kids. Please o women and men, you are not so special that an abusive person will exempt from their wrath. Our women especially are so desperate to be Mrs that they feel they can pray away an Abusive Man's issues. You can do yourself better by marrying someone who has their temper under control please. See these kids now are practically without their mother and father.
ReplyDeleteA case of the cane been kept under the bed... The former wife head don catch April. Wish you survived it to tell a new story. RIP
ReplyDeleteExactly what will happen to woman with deaf ears!u saw dat a man manhandled his wife,beat her up and has bad domestic violence records yet u defended him and insulted his ex wife.U think say hin too love abi?u don chop d cain now!dat is what will happen to d woman dat married ma ex-husband too!as women no dey hear!

All in d name of love am sure u protected him till u became a victim so sad....R.I.P
ReplyDeleteThis should serve as a lesson to all ladies who date abusive men in the hope that theirs will be different, it won't my sisters is either u leave when their is still time or they carry u out in body bag
ReplyDeleteI pray for the children, who witnessed the killing of their mum, that they don't grow up to become schizophrenic. May the Lord heal them. Some women believe that the other woman was the cause for the violence not realising that there is no justification for violence. If she isn't good enough for you, let her go. Women please be wise
ReplyDeleteLesson to women dat wan to b 2nd wife despise d guy nt bein a good husband to d previous wife nd u tink u can change him
ReplyDeleteSame story wit me violence husband mAtter have left him 4 good waiting 4 d other woman dat will murder him or he will murder women & men of marriagble age please watch out don't be in a hurry or material driven have learnt my lesson in a hard way thank God I came out with my life
