Yesterday, May 7, a Texas judge gave the former NFL star temporary custody of their children, pending a full custody hearing. The children must also receive psychological counseling.

Because of the incident that occurred last month at their Texas estate where both parties accused the other of assault, Pilar was ordered to stay at least 500 yards from their suburban home. 

The judge also ruled that the injuries to Pilar, which she alleged her estranged husband inflicted during an April 23 scuffle, were a result of Deion defending himself from her assault.
