Oklahoma City man arrested in connection with shampoo assault

An Oklahoma City man was arrested after his wife told police he squirted baby shampoo on her.

The woman, whose name was not released, told police she and Billy Stephenson, 24, were separated, but had planned to take their children shopping. When the two began arguing, the wife took Stephenson back to his home, she told police.

Technically, this happened in MWC rather than OKC, but I was acquainted with the "entrée" in this old case.
In fact, a friend of mine actually rented the same apartment after it became vacant. (And after it was cleaned up a little).

We knew him as "Ted" rather than "Theodore" and most folks referred to him as "The Greek".
To give an idea of how this affected us, word on the street was that the kid got busted at A&W while making Papa Burgers.
(It was also rumored that Ted was really mean to his son . . . I'm not saying this is a case of just desserts but . . .)

According to police, at about 5:30 p.m. Thursday, an officer in plain clothes was patrolling in the area when he saw a man getting out of his car with no shirt.

The officer said the man, later identified 55-year-old Luz Trevino Rodriguez, pulled down his pants and began masturbating in a wooded area.

The shampoo tussle is a bit less weird once read. Beaning her head with the bottle was probably the 'hey you just won yourself a not so free ride to county' silky, shiny, golden ticket for that young man.

Isn't OKC, but whatevs


JENKS, Oklahoma - A Bixby man is behind bars after wearing a stolen police officer's badge while demanding a discounted spray tan and stealing tanning lotion, an arrest report says.
Dustin Lee Bell, 25, had the badge on his sweater when Jenks police arrived to a tanning salon on Main Street, the report says. He reportedly claimed that he found it at a car wash in South Tulsa. Officers said it was a Sand Springs badge, and a call to the dispatch personnel confirmed it was stolen.

The tanning salon manager said in a statement to police that the dispute began when Bell, who was wearing the badge visible on the outside of his sweater, demanded he only be charged $10 for a $34 spray tan.

The manager said when he returned from calling police, he noticed there was a bottle of tanning lotion missing from behind the counter, according to the report.

Bell was arrested, and during the booking and inventory process, officers found in his wallet a Sam's Club card belonging to the Sand Springs police officer who had his badge stolen.

Bell is facing charges of stolen property, larceny from a retailer and false impersonation of a police officer.

Thought this goes here as easily as anywhere else.

Somebody asked the other day about, "Where IS this militarization of the police going on? I don't see it!"

Well, here we go. Today in McClain County, watch the Norman Police & McClain County deputies go into action to catch a guy who escaped from a Norman PD police car. He was being held on a burglary of an abandoned building charge with two other people. I mean, we're talking HIGH crimes here! But really, you have to see the pictures to believe it....they are geared up for a war against some rebel group or something. Just insane - check out the "Mobile Command Unit" in the background of one of the pictures in the NewsOK gallery. The uniform gear, all of it is almost, no, it IS comical.

Man arrested for pretending to be ghost in cemetery

Prosecutors: Man made 'woooooooh' noises, flapped arms at mourners

A British man was arrested for pretending to a ghost in a cemetery by making "woooooooh" noises and flapping his arms at mourners.

Anthony Stallard, 24, was fined about $125 for his stupidity.

This after he was seen kicking a soccer ball at gravestones with a friend, according to the Daily Mail.

According to prosecutors, it was clear that Stallard was pretending to be a ghost.

He "was throwing himself backwards, waving his arms about and going 'woooooooh,'" prosecutor Tim Concannon told the court.

For his part, Stallard does feel bad.

"He has accepted that his behavior, if it had been outside of a cemetery, would not have been inappropriate. But inside a cemetery, while people are grieving for their loved ones, it might be," his attorney said.

A few years ago I posted about a murder that supposedly took place in the
Gatewood district in the 1930's(?). It involved a girl named Carrie and the
place is supposed to be haunted. I believe the address is 2000 Carey Place.

I can't find my post. Can someone help?

I remember the post and the house as well. It had the odd carvings on the wall or something?

08-23-2014, 02:02 AM
That story was debunked in the media a few years back. Carey Place is named for the family who owned the land the street is situated on; the same family owned Carey Lumber. There was no murder, at least no murder resembling the one in the urban legend. And it's not carvings; one (actually more than one) house in the neighborhood has little hatchet-shaped cutouts in the shutters. Other houses have different shapes, but similar design.

Apparently, this "Carey Place" business was somewhat popular in the past. I've lived in OKC since about '74 and never even heard of this neighborhood within a neighborhood until coming across this thread.

Just drove through there on the way home from the Farmer's Market.
Very interesting spot. Very interesting, indeed.

I considered pulling over to the curb, throwing a sheet over my head and doing an impression of a ghost, (replete with the "whoooooooo--whoooooo's") but that would have been a crime. Besides, it was broad daylight and nowhere near Halloween.

p.s. I used to buy a lot of lumber--and even trusses--from Carey Lumber.
It was a crime that they went out of business. It was a great, authentic, Lumber Yard.
With extra good materials.

Panda, I be fine. But yeah, if some doctor ever tells me no two ways about it, I have only X time left, if at all possible the final few hours will be spent telling folks I love I will miss them, I am grateful they have been in my life and yes of course they can have any bacon that's left ... all while sitting in sight of and smell of fresh bacon frying up by the kindly cooks seeing to my last wishes.

You're young so your brain is probably more about being behind the wheel of a fast car or in the arms of a beautiful woman. Having a few decades on you, I've driven a fair share of fast cars, though only rarely in the three digit range. There is only one beautiful woman for me and after all these years of putting up with me there is no way being entwined in each other's arms should be her final memory of me. Although hopefully she'll be there enjoying bacon with me and being comforted by friends as they enjoy sneaking a few bites as they divide out that last pan I wasn't able to enjoy.
