MARINETTE COUNTY – The man accused of shooting and killing his ex-girlfriend in Wausaukee has now been charged.

Richard Heyer was charged Tuesday with murder in the death of Ann Schueller.

Friends say Schueller’s concerns were legitimate.

“She begged the court systems. You got the handwritten letter,” said Harry Meetz.

Friends say Schueller had listed the wrong date of possible abuse on her request.

“Because she screwed up on one date you know he just thought she was a joke, you know. And now well the joke’s on him,” said Meetz.

FOX 11 called Boyle’s office to find out more about the denial of the restraining order. His secretary said he wouldn’t comment.
