Overview
- Prosecutors say Lee Gilley fled to Italy after removing an ankle monitor and Friday confirmed Italian authorities have received a formal U.S. extradition request seeking his return.
- Houston police responded to a June trespass call at the Allston Street home where a man refused to come out and told officers he would “go to court” to prove the house belonged to him.
- County records show a May 21 warranty deed and an affidavit of adverse possession naming Matthew J. Jackson and Save A Life Homes LLC were filed shortly after a search warrant at the house, and the document appears to lack Gilley or Bauer signatures.
- At a Harris County family-court hearing Judge Angela Lancelin ruled there was no evidence tying Gilley’s brother to threats against the children, kept the children with their maternal grandparents in South Carolina, and issued a gag order.
- Save A Life Homes has faced past lawsuits alleging fraudulent deed filings and trespassing charges, and the district attorney’s office has treated the reported occupancy as a civil matter referred to the constable’s office so the Bauers can pursue civil and probate remedies.
