I had a whole True Crime Tuesday post ready for this week but when I read a recent news article in our local paper, I knew I had to write about this woman. So here it goes:
The news article’s title intrigued me: “Brookfield woman arrested twice in one day“
How?! Just how does one accomplish this wondrous title?!
As I read on, I just kept smacking my head.
The woman in question, 23-year-old Elayna Kathleen Smith, was arrested for breaking a full no-contact order. Police took her in at a park-and-ride where she was found in a vehicle with the young man who took the restraining order out against her. The two were first caught driving a vehicle with no front license plate and then the young man was found to have an expired license. After discovering the expired license, cops asked for the young woman’s name. She first gave some fake name but was quickly found out.
So Elayna is hauled in. She is released on a $500 bond.
Well, Elena isn’t the brightest bulb…
Not minutes after she is released, she is caught by an officer in the police department’s parking lot getting into a truck with who you ask… the same young man she is supposed to legally have no contact with! She is released now after posting another $1,000 bond.
She was arraigned on September 30th, 2019 after pleading “Not Guilty” to the three charges against her. Not sure how she plans on getting away with this one!
I have so many questions on this one:
- Why was a no-contact order taken out on her?!
- Why was the guy who took the order out on her with her?!
- Why did she choose to break the order and get in the truck with the guy?!
- Were there drugs involved?! Prostitution?!
- Or… is she just that dense?!
She does look like the kind of woman you’d have to take a restraining order out on after breaking up with her because she cheated on you and yet couldn’t leave you alone because certain parts of the relationship were, ahem, legendary. Also, I believe the article mentions why the retraining order was taken out…there were multiple assault charges. Her and the man in question appear to be frequent visitors of the CT penal system, so I guess there’s that too.
