An elementary school teacher and mother-of-four who was shot and killed by her estranged husband who then turned the gun on himself had been denied an emergency restraining order against him less than a week before.Kim Conover, 43, who taught at a Petaluma elementary school in San Francisco, was shot by Kevin Conover, 41, outside her divorce lawyer's office on Sunday around 2pm.
Police had been called out to the couple five times over the past year to investigate complaints of domestic abuse and in one case, an allegation that Conover pushed one of his step-daughters, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
The couple had only been married two years but were former high school classmates. They had 21-month-old twins together.
Kim Conover had requested an emergency protective order six days before she was killed, alleging that her husband had grabbed her earlier that day, Lt Tim Lyons said.

The judge denied it after finding no evidence that Kim Conover was in immediate danger, authorities said. Read More
