An Oklahoma mother is accused of shooting a man she found in her 16-year-old daughter’s bedroom.
Police arrested 34-year-old Valerie Fowler Monday for assault and battery with a deadly weapon.
“We can say that there was a 16-year-old girl that witnessed the shooting a well as a young child,” said Michael Lewis, Paoli police chief.
Police said they received two 911 calls around 7:30 a.m.
“We arrived at one location where we found a 31-year-old male who had been shot. He was on the porch of a residence” said Larry Rhodes, Garvin County sheriff.
But, investigators said the shooting happened at another home.
Investigators said Fowler called “to report that she shot a male inside her house,” according to Rhodes.
The shooting is believed to have happened inside Fowler’s home, who also found a gun in the residence.
The male is not being identified at this time.
“He was treated at the scene and transported to an Oklahoma City hospital by medical helicopter,” Rhodes said. “His injuries were non-life threatening. It did appear to the chief and I that he suffered a gunshot wound to anextremity. ”
Paoli police are leading the investigation and said they are working to determine what led up to the shooting.
Police are not saying if Fowler knew the man she shot, but they are looking into it.
Some say this mom did what any mother (or father) should have done if they found a grown a– man in their home, victimizing their child.
I’m pretty sure this guy would definitely rather take a “non-life threatening bullet” than be thrown in jail where child molesters are showed NO MERCY by the big boys.
Elizabeth Smart, who was kidnapped from her bedroom at age 14 and held captive for nine months, is speaking out against pornography – saying porn made her captor rape her even more than before.
According to KTLA:
The video, produced by the anti-porn group “Fight the New Drug,” features Smart retelling the story of her ordeal at the hands of homeless street preacher Brian David Mitchell and his wife, Wanda Barzee. Smart describes being raped repeatedly, and Mitchell showing her hardcore pornography.
“I remember he pulled out this magazine full of hardcore pornography and I remember he would just sit and look at it and stare at it,” she recalls in the video. “He’d just talk about these women and then when he was done, he would turn and he would look at me and be like, ‘Now, we’re going to to do this.’ It just led to him raping me more, more than he already did, which was a lot.”
Smart blames pornography for contributing to Mitchell’s attacks on her.
“Looking at pornography wasn’t enough for him. Having sex with his wife after looking at pornography, it wasn’t enough for him. And then it led him to finally going out and kidnapping me. He just always wanted more,” she said on the video. “I can’t say that he would not have gone out and kidnapped me had he not looked at pornography. All I know is that pornography made my living hell worse.”

All I know is that pornography made my living hell worse.”
Smart was abducted from her bedroom in 2002 at knifepoint by Mitchell, a homeless street preacher who had sought to make her one of his “wives.” She was held captive for nine months until being spotted walking down State Street in the company of Mitchell and Barzee.
The video features clips from the search for Smart as she describes how she has moved on and become an advocate for abuse victims and an opponent of pornography.
Mitchell is serving a life sentence in federal prison for his role in the kidnapping. Barzee is serving a prison term in the Utah State Prison with a parole hearing scheduled for 2018. In a 2013 interview with FOX 13, Elizabeth Smart said she had forgiven both of them for what they did to her.
The Utah State Legislature earlier this year passed a resolution declaring pornography a “public health crisis.”
What a sick bastard. Hopefully he’s getting everything he took from this young girl taken from him in PRISON! Join the discussion.
I have no words. Seriously. This police corruption has got to stop. So now cops are soliciting underage girls? for sex?! Really?!
An officer was terminated by the Jackson Police Department after a video of him flirting suggestively surfaced on Facebook, authorities said.
The minute-long video, which includes graphic language, was posted to social media Tuesday and has been shared hundreds of times. “The Jackson Police Department does have possession of the video that was posted to Facebook (Tuesday) by the young lady,” Cmdr. Tyree Jones said.
“Chief (Lee) Vance found the video to be very disturbing. He is very disappointed due to the content that’s in the video.” Officer Darryl Stasher was terminated as a result of an investigation into the video, Jones said. Stasher was initially relieved of his police officer duties and assigned to administrative desk duty, Jones said. He was later fired.
Stasher, who worked for JPD for at least eight years, was assigned to Precinct 2, Jones said.
The girl’s family said she is 17 years old, but her Facebook page says that she was born in 1990.
Jones said the content of the video is inappropriate.
