Angel Amor Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Woman allegedly called 911 for ‘cutie’ deputy Faces jail after purportedly asking dispatcher to forward her number The Associated Press Updated: 4:14 p.m. CT July 14, 2006 ALOHA, Ore. - A woman who called 911 to get "the cutest cop I've seen" sent back to her home got a date all right -- a court date. The same sheriff's deputy arrested her on charges of misuse of the emergency dispatch system. Washington County Sheriff's Sgt. David Thompson told KGW-TV of Portland it all started with a noise complaint called in last month by neighbors of Lorna Jeanne Dudash. The deputy sent to check on the complaint knocked on her door, then left. Thompson said Dudash then called 911, asking that the "cutie pie" deputy return. "He's the cutest cop I've seen in a long time. I just want to know his name," Dudash told the dispatcher. "Heck, it doesn't come very often a good man comes to your doorstep." After listening to some more, followed by a bit of silence, the dispatcher asked again why Dudash needed the deputy to return. "Honey, I'm just going to be honest with you, OK? I just thought he was cute. I'm 45 years old and I'd just like to meet him again, but I don't know how to go about doing that without calling 911," she said. "I know this is absolutely not in any way, shape or form an emergency, but if you would give the officer my phone number and ask him to come back, would you mind?" The deputy returned, verified that there was no emergency and arrested her for misusing the 911 system, an offense punishable by a fine of up to several thousand dollars and a year in jail. Thompson said Thursday it was the first case he knew of in which someone called the emergency line for such a personal reason. "That's taking up valuable time from dispatchers who could be taking true emergency calls," he said. Copyright 2006 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Jonny 5 Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 nah, I don't think it's funny but you gotta give out a suitable sentence... if the woman was fully concious that it was illegal to do what she did then screw it - give her the sentence. Now if she was a little bit loopy and didn't know what she was doin then somethin else would have to be considered I guess... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
