“Bachelorette” contestant Devin Strader's ex had a restraining order against him in 2017

Jenn Tran's former fiancé was also arrested for allegedly trespassing into his ex's apartment.

Bachelorette fans probably don't need any more reasons to dislike Devin Strader, but here they come anyway.

The 28-year-old freight company manager from Texas — who dumped his fiancee, Bachelorette Jenn Tran, shortly after they got engaged — was arrested on accusations that he burglarized an ex-girlfriend's Louisiana home in 2017. According to legal papers obtained by Entertainment Weekly, his ex also had a restraining order against him at the time. (Reality Steve first reported the news on Monday.)

In 2017, Strader's ex-girlfriend — who was not named in the arrest warrant affidavit prepared by the Baton Rouge Police Department — told an officer that she and Strader had recently broken up, and he lived two doors down from her. After being out of town, she came home to find her house burglarized, and a diamond necklace — one Strader had given her while they were still dating — was missing.

The woman also alleged to police that Strader had "come to her house banging on the door several times and screaming at her," and that she had since filed a restraining order against him. "Later that evening, [Strader] made a fire out in the street with what appeared to be the actual restraining order," the affidavit further alleged. "She also had a tire flattened in her vehicle and when it was getting changed, [Strader] came outside and began laughing at her." Strader was subsequently arrested on burglary charges. He ultimately pleaded guilty to charges of criminal trespass and simple criminal damage to property of less than $500, and received one year of unsupervised probation.

I know what you're thinking, rose lovers. ABC and Warner Bros., the studio that produces the Bachelor franchise, run background checks on their contestants — so how did they miss this? A source close to production tells EW, "We take the safety of our contestants very seriously and make every effort to conduct thorough diligence. As exhaustive as our vetting process is, this protective order did not surface in our searches."

According to the Reality Steve report, the restraining order Strader's ex took out against him was later sealed, but the burglary arrest affidavit — which discusses the restraining order — is in the public record.

EW has obtained the now-unsealed Petition for Protection From Abuse, which was filed by Strader's ex-girlfriend on March 22, 2017. The document features the woman's handwritten account of alleged abuse by Strader, including that he "spit on me and threw his drink on me at Pelicans game in front of everyone in the crowd," and "put me in a chokehold covering my mouth."

Strader is already public enemy No. 1 in Bachelor Nation for his callous treatment of Jenn Tran after their season of The Bachelorette ended filming. On the live season finale, Strader was booed by the audience, and he later tried to defend himself in a 13-minute video featuring images of several text exchanges with Tran. The video has since been deleted.

Sadly, this isn't the first time a Bachelorette contestant's criminal past slipped through the cracks during the show's vetting process. In 2018, producers discovered after the fact that Lincoln Adim, one of the contestants on Becca Kufrin's season of The Bachelorette, had been arrested for indecent assault and battery after groping a woman on a harbor cruise. In a statement to PEOPLE, a spokesperson for Warner Bros. said, "No one on The Bachelorette production had any knowledge about the incident or charges when Lincoln Adim was cast, and he himself denied ever having engaged in or having been charged with any sexual misconduct."
