Lyons, KS: Slain Lyons woman obtained protection order

By Associated Press
LYONS — A Lyons woman who was found dead in her home had taken out a protection order last week against the man suspected in her death.
The suspect, Armando Mosqueda, 35, was scheduled to appear in Rice County court today for a hearing on the protection-from-abuse order obtained by Jeannie Jacobsen, 31, a mother of three who was found stabbed to death Sunday morning in her home.
Mosqueda was arrested Sunday in Baytown, Texas, and charged Monday with premeditated first-degree murder. He is being held without bond in Texas awaiting extradition to Kansas.
Lyons Police Chief Chris Detmer declined to provide further details on Jacobsen's death, which was the first homicide in Lyons since June 2006. The city of about 3,500 is about 90 miles northwest of Wichita.
Rice County court records indicate Jacobsen filed for a protection-from-abuse order against Mosqueda on Oct. 26 and was immediately granted a temporary order.
In seeking the protective order, Jacobsen said Mosqueda had threatened to "physically hurt (her) or a minor child on purpose," according to the court records.
Mosqueda was already on probation for a 2006 aggravated battery in Rice County.
