Overview

  • Richards arrived unannounced on August 3 to collect their shared pets despite a July 16 restraining order barring Phypers from coming within 100 yards of her.
  • Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies questioned Richards outside the Calabasas residence and ultimately made no arrests or charges related to the incident.
  • Richards’s lawyer says she acted after learning Phypers had euthanized one of her dogs without her approval, an allegation he firmly denies.
  • During the 911 dispatch, Phypers expressed fear for his elderly parents, who had opened the door and later described Richards banging and demanding entry.
  • The couple remains bound by the protective order as they await an August 8 hearing on its continuation and broader divorce matters.
