A $250,000 bond has been set for a Bartlesville who allegedly violated a protective order and followed his wife.  52-year old Aaron George Watson is charged with violation of a protective order.  Watson was arraigned a few days ago on another protective order against his wife and made a $25,000 bond with a condition to stay away from his wife. 

A court affidavit states that Watson's wife told Bartlesville police that her vehicle's rear window was shot while working at Jane Phillips Medical Center.  A hospital's surveillance camera showed the suspect driving a white vehicle, stopped behind his wife's car.  The victim identified Watson on the camera.  Officers went to Watson's home and the suspect didn't come out.  Reportedly, the police found a suicide note near the front door, addressed to the suspect's wife.  The next day, officers served a search warrant, found Watson in the backyard, and smelled alcohol coming from the suspect's breath.  The police discovered Watson's truck running inside the garage.  The authorities found inside the truck another suicide note, prescription pills, and bottles of liquor.  A loaded handgun was found inside the home.

Watson's next court date is December 16th.
