BSO deputy serves restraining order against man accused in Tamarac tragedy weeks before, bodycam video shows

CBS News20-04-2025
New body camera video shows the moments when the man accused of triggering an Amber Alert and killing three people, including his estranged wife, was served a restraining order just weeks before the tragedy happened in Tamarac earlier this year.
According to the video obtained by CBS News Miami, a Broward County Sheriff's deputy is shown serving a restraining order to Nathan Gingles on Jan. 6, just a month-and-a-half before he allegedly killed Mary Gingles, his estranged wife, along with her father and a neighbor before walking away from the scene with his four-year-old daughter Seraphina.
"Again with the restraining order, same as the last restraining order -- no contact or some [expletive] like that," the deputy is heard saying to Nathan Gingles. "So, you already know it's going to go, real quick, you hit the nail on the head: No guns, no ammunition, permits — none of that."
In that video, Nathan Gingles accused Mary Gingles of kidnapping their child.
Less than two months after that interaction, Nathan Gingles was later accused of
kidnapping his daughter and killing her mother, her grandfather and a neighbor
who was trying to help.
Nathan Gingles is currently facing murder, kidnapping and child abuse charges.
The deputy who served the restraining order has been suspended because he didn't take
Nathan Gingles' guns
away while serving the documents, according to CBS News Miami's partners at the
Miami Herald
.
Seven other deputies were also suspended
after February's incident.
Broward County Sheriff Gregory Tony said his agency fell short on how
domestic violence calls
were handled before the triple murder.

Body found in Broward Everglades canal identified as Hialeah man from Mexico

Authorities are releasing new details on a body that surfaced in a Florida Everglades canal early Thursday morning. Broward County officials say Ramiro Gomez-Diaz, of Hialeah, was discovered hours after they found his car submerged underwater. Deputies responded to reports of a sunken vehicle near Krome Avenue and U.S. Highway 27 around 9 p.m. on Wednesday and found the 27-year-old's 2007 Chevy Tahoe underwater, the Broward Sheriff's Office told the Miami Herald. The agency's dive team, missing persons unit, marine patrol and drone unit were deployed to locate the SUV but saw no trace of the missing driver. A family member was the first to spot a lifeless Gomez-Dias after returning to the canal early Thursday morning, BSO reported in a statement released Friday afternoon. A GoFundMe page for the Hialeah man said he was originally from Chiapas, Mexico and migrated to the United States 'with dreams of building a better future.' The posting said proceeds would help pay for his funeral and transporting him back to his hometown in Mexico. Marshall Jones, owner of Mack's Fish Camp, an air boat tour business located on the same stretch of canal, was the first to phone authorities. He guided rescue crews to Gomez-Diaz's SUV after spotting tire tracks on Wednesday night. 'I saw fresh skid marks and disturbance on the side of the levy and bubbles in the canal,' Jones told the Miami Herald. An initial investigation by BSO's Traffic Homicide Unit showed that 'for unknown reasons, the vehicle veered off the roadway and into the canal.' after tire marks. The agency said it will continue looking into how the sunken car and its driver ended up in the canal.

Have a Jeffrey Epstein question? Ask Miami Herald reporter Julie K. Brown

The fallout from the Trump administration's July decision not to release documents from the government's investigation into deceased sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein has led to public outcry and created divisions within the Republican Party. Miami Herald reporter Julie K. Brown first exposed how Epstein was able to get away with sexually abusing hundreds of girls with minimal consequences in her Perversion of Justice investigation. Her reporting on the sweetheart deal federal prosecutors gave Epstein, who counted President Donald Trump, former President Bill Clinton and British royal Prince Andrew among his friends, led the Southern District of New York to bring new charges against the financier in 2019. He died in federal custody soon after, in what has been ruled a suicide. Epstein's accomplice and former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell was arrested the following year and convicted in 2021 for her role in recruiting girls for Epstein and participating in their abuse in at least one instance. She's now serving a 20-year sentence at a federal prison in Tallahassee. Since then, Epstein's network of powerful friends — some of whom were accused of partaking in his sexual abuse — and Epstein's death itself have been the subject of numerous conspiracy theories. With many of Trump's supporters demanding answers, the U.S. Department of Justice is moving to release testimony from the grand jury that indicted Epstein in 2019. A top Justice Department official is also meeting with Maxwell to see if she can provide more information. The U.S. House Oversight Committee is also set to meet with Maxwell next month. There's no one who knows the Epstein story better than Brown, who will be answering reader questions to help separate fact from fiction in a story that has captured the public's attention like no other.

Grandma who saw accused killer dad Luciano Frattolin tormented by thought she could have saved his daughter

A New York grandmother who believes she spotted accused killer dad Luciano Frattolin is tormented by the thought she should have saved his 9-year-old daughter, Melina, she told The Post. 'This is really bothering me,' Rebecca Kulickowski said of driving past a 'skinny, tall guy' around the same time and location as Frattolin is accused of drowning his daughter in Ticonderoga on Saturday. 'I've kept playing that moment back in my head, asking why we didn't stop?' Kulickowski said — saying is plagued by wondering, 'If we had, she'd still be alive.' 4 Luciano Frattolin has been accused of drowning his daughter after reporting a hoax kidnapping. Essex County Sheriff's Office Lulickowski previously revealed how she had been driving through Ticonderoga toward Schroon Lake on Saturday when she saw a Toyota Prius stopped in the road. 'It only caught my eye because as I was driving past the car, I seen a skinny, tall guy,' she told News 10. 'And he was running up a hill that he was parked next to and there was a wooded area on the bottom of it,' she said. 'I just didn't feel right, there was something about him, I don't know, our eyes locked when I drove by, he looked at me,' she said. 4 Rebecca Kulickowski told The Post she keeps replaying the moment she saw him in her head. WTEN The next day, Kulickowski got an Amber Alert about little Melina and immediately contacted police. 'We got an alert and I was like, 'God no.' I can't even tell you what I felt in that moment, it was horrible,' she said. 4 Little Melina Frattolin's body was found in Eagle Lake pinned under a log on Sunday. Instagram/Luciano Frattolin The alert was triggered by the girl's dad claiming she'd been kidnapped, which officials later said appeared to be a hoax. The alert was called off when Melina's body was discovered pinned under a log in Eagle Lake, between Ticonderoga and Schroon Lake, close to where Kulickowski saw the suspicious man. Frattolin, who had custody of his daughter for the week, was charged on Monday with second-degree murder and concealment of a human corpse. 4 Frattolin appeared in court on Monday charged with murder and concealment of a corpse. Wnyt13 He is alleged to have strangled his daughter to death around an hour after she spoke to her mother, and some two and a half hours before he called in a missing persons report at around 10 p.m. Saturday. Frattolin was arrested early on Monday morning and appeared in court later that day, when he pleaded not guilty. He is due back in court again on Friday.
