Alleged Bashara mistress obtains protection order against him

Robert Bashara’s alleged mistress, Rachel Gillett, now says she’s afraid for her life of the man she once loved.
On April 26, Gillett was granted a personal protection order ex parte in Wayne County’s Third Circuit Court against Bashara. The order forbids Bashara from contacting, following or visiting Gillett, and prevents him from legally purchasing or owning a gun.
In documents filed by her attorney, Doraid Elder, Gillett says that she had a three-year relationship with Bashara, during which time she “tried several times to break up with him.” Bashara has stalked her “at home and at work,” she charges in the PPO. Elder said Gillett met Bashara online.
When she learned that Bashara’s wife, Jane Bashara, had been discovered strangled in her vehicle Jan. 25, Gillett’s concerns about her former lover skyrocketed...
-------------
...“Rachel is a victim of Bob Bashara’s lies and deceit. … She is a very sincere person and would never have been involved with him if she knew he was in a solid marriage,” Elder said.
The attorney said Bashara told Gillett his relationship with his wife was “on the rocks” and he was getting a divorce. At one point, Elder said Bashara even told Gillett the divorce had been finalized. But things changed when Gillett asked to see the divorce papers. Not wanting to interfere with the ongoing investigation, Elder declined to say when his client first asked Bashara about seeing proof of his alleged divorce...
--------------
...Now living in an undisclosed location, Elder said Gillett is taking extra precautions for her safety.
“There’s anxiety every time she hears a knock at the door, every time she goes out, every time she leaves the house,” he said.
Bashara’s attorney, David Griem, could not be reached before press time for comment.
