NBC6 obtained the photos through a public records request on Wednesday.
Court records show Mary and Nathan Gingles were going through a contentious divorce. She had obtained two domestic violence injunctions against him and said he had threatened to kill her.
Mary Gingles called authorities after finding the items and told Broward Sheriff's Office deputies they made her concerned for her safety.

The two deputies who responded to the call were among eight BSO employees suspended in the wake of the triple killing.
Nathan Gingles is accused of gunning down his estranged wife, her father, 64-year-old David Ponzer, and their neighbor, 36-year-old Andrew Ferrin on North Plum Bay Parkway back on Feb. 16, some two months after the backpack was found.
The shocking killings were committed in front of the Gingles' 4-year-old daughter, an arrest warrant said.
Nathan Gingles was found with his daughter hours after the killing after an Amber Alert was issued for the girl.
He was arrested on three counts of first-degree murder, two counts of child abuse, one count of kidnapping and one count of violating a domestic violence injunction.
Nathan Gingles remains held without bond and had pleaded not guilty. He could face the death penalty if convicted.
