Wint’s own father and a housemate, along with two other people, petitioned for restraining orders against him about 10 years ago over threats of violence,

He was ordered to stay away from his father for a year in 2005.

Wint’s father said his son, “stood in the street in front of the house and continued to threaten me and my wife. I also have an 8-year-old child who was terrified.”

He also had a dispute with a housemate over loud music and another person about a car parked on private property without tags.

“Mr. Wint became very violent and said he will drop us one by one,” the woman threatened in that incident said, according to court records.

that Wint was convicted in 2009 of second-degree assault and served 30 days in jail. He was charged with burglary in 2010, but pleaded guilty to malicious destruction of property. A protective order was also issued against him that year, the AP reports.

The Washington Post reports that he threatened a woman he’d been out at a nightclub with in 2010, saying he was “good with a knife” and not afraid of police. Another woman accused him of assault and a sex offense in 2010, saying he punched and groped her at a bar, but she did not pursue the case and the charges were dropped.

A neighbor, Joe Carregal, he saw smoke pouring from the upper-story windows of the house and man knocking on the front door to try to get the family out.

Nelitza Gutierrez, another housekeeper for the family, told the Washington Post that she received a text message from Amy Savopoulos Thursday morning telling her to not come to clean the house, which is her usual routine.

“I am making sure you do not come today,” the text message read. The text message came at about 9 a.m. Gutierrez tried to call Savopoulos about an hour later, but she did not answer.

Gutierrez, who worked for the family for 20 years, told the newspaper that Philip Savopoulos was staying home from school while recovering from a go-kart injury. She also said that Savvas Savopoulos had left a voice mail Wednesday night.

“It was something very suspicious because I felt his voice was really tense,” Gutierrez told the Post. “And it was different than what he had said to me before.”

She said he had originally told her that Amy planned to go out, but then said she was home sick in bed. He also told her that Figueroa, the other housekeeper, would be staying over, but her phone had died and he asked Gutierrez to pass that message on to her family.

“Never, never did she stay over,” Gutierrez told the Post.

Savvas and Amy Savopoulos, their 10-year-old son, Philip, and a housekeeper were slain in a Washington, D.C ., mansion that was then set on fire.
