Indie wrestler Michael Elgin, real name Aaron Frobe, reportedly was recently arrested for violating a protective order filed against him, according to WrestlingNews.co.
It was reported that Elgin was arrested on June 29th in Belleville, Illinois following a separate incident where he has been reported as a missing person on Facebook but later found to be safe.
The protective order reportedly was filed against Elgin on May 21st by his ex-fiance over safety concern fears she had over her life that resulted in her leaving their home this past April. Elgin’s ex-fiance claims that she was being “abused physically, mentally, verbally, and emotionally” during their time together from June 2020 to April 2021.
In an interview with WrestlingNews.co, Elgin’s ex-fiance stated that she had been abused over sixty times and Elgin had been using suicide threats as a manipulation tactic to continue the abusive relationship.
“I respect everyone’s sexuality but it should be noted that men and women are people he goes after, not only women. The warning is for everyone, not just for women.
He used threats of suicide many times after I left. A couple of girls have reached out to me since I left and told me the same stories, as [Frobel’s ex-wife] Rachel can tell you as well. He’s continuing to threaten suicide as a manipulation tactic.”
Portion of the protective order:
“I had a plan to leave a few times before but always backed out from fear. Since I left I have received hundreds of phone calls, hundreds of text messages, numerous videos, and suicide threats from him. He has also reached out to my friends and family. Whenever I or someone he has reached out to block him, he uses the free text/calling apps to make a fake number and continues calling and texting. Sometimes saying it is him, sometimes pretending to be other people. I have asked him not to contact me numerous times.”
“Since I’ve been in a relationship with the respondent I have suffered sexual, mental, emotional, and verbal abuse from him. Abuse included:
– punishment for saying no to sex
– berating me verbally in public
– berating me verbally in private
– isolating me from my friends and family
– monitoring my phone and computer to see if I am complying – extreme control
– sexual caretaking
– pressure to engage in sex acts I expressed not wanting to do
– exposing my sexual health by seeing male and female sex workers during our relationship
– insulting and shaming me
– intimidationI recently found out he has been texting me our entire relationship from different fake numbers pretending to be people from my past and saying nasty things about me. I believe this was used along with many other tactics of control and manipulation to break me down and keep me under his control.”
