Records show couple placed court orders against murderer
EDWARDSVILLE—Last Saturday, Katherine Malone and her boyfriend, Tye Brown, were shot and killed by Malone's ex-husband, Matthew Bass, at the Metropolitan Ambulance Services Trust where they worked. Later that day, Bass, who had been charged with murdering them, was found dead of self-inflicted gunshot wounds in Lee's Summit, Mo.
A review of court records in three counties shows that Malone, 30, spent the last months of her life doing everything legally possible to protect herself from Bass, 37. She repeatedly said she was afraid of him.
MAST paramedics often wear bullet-proof vests at work, but Malone and Brown wore them to protect themselves from Bass, spokesman Eric Dooley said Monday. Police would not say whether the two were wearing the vests when they
"I'm fearful of abuse at his hands," she wrote then.
The couple got court orders against Bass in both Leavenworth and Johnson counties. MAST changed the access code at the station where they worked to protect Malone and Brown.
were shot.
Dooley said MAST supervisors did not think that sending Malone and Brown to separate stations would help. They thought that the trouble with Bass had decreased recently, Dooley said.
Bass waited for the couple to return from a medical call about midnight on Friday night, Dooley said.
Bass then ambushed and fatally shot the two.
Nearly seven hours later, police found Bass' body in his car in Lee's Summit, Mo.

There's a hold on my enrollment. What do I do? That depends on your hold. Most holds result from unpaid fines, like parking tickets or library overdue charges. The way to clear those is by paying off that department.
Some schools will place a hold on enrollment until you receive advising or some other kind of approval, in which case you'll have to go through that process first.
