Police: Doughnut thief pees, offers officer sex


BARTLESVILLE, Okla. (AP) — Police say an Oklahoma woman tripled her trouble when she stole a doughnut from someone's truck, peed in a parking lot and offered to perform a sex act on an officer for money.

The 27-year-old Tulsa woman was being held Thursday in Washington County Jail on charges of vehicle burglary, trespassing, indecent exposure and soliciting prostitution. Jail records do not show if she has a lawyer.

The Bartlesville Examiner-Enterprise reports that the truck owner complained to police that the woman stole the doughnut at about 2 a.m. Wednesday. A convenience store clerk asked police to charge the woman because he said she relieved herself outside the store.

Officer R.S. Detherow says that when he told the woman she was under arrest, she offered to perform a sex act for money.

1. Little-known Oklahoma law dating back to the late1890's clearly states....

...that "any woman found to be intoxicated beyond reason, and who is also in possession of a doughnut, may attempt to pee through the hole of that doughnut and, if the sides of the doughnut hole do not get wet, she must be released immediately."

If she had only known.

Middle America and the Mid Western states are rife with scores of "pee through a doughnut" laws which still haven't been taken off the books. Most of then were legislated into being between 1895-1896 and no one can find any source as to why. Yet another puzzling fact about the history of our beloved country. I tell all the children about it so they don't grow up ignorant.
