Moore, OK - A man who allegedly violated a Victim's Protective Order (VPO) practically turned himself in to police.
VPO's exist in theory to provide protection for individuals who feel threatened by another. Often they forbid a person from approaching, telephoning, emailing or otherwise having contact with the victim.
If a person violates a VPO they can be fined or even jailed.
The problem though is in proving a violation occurred.
One quick thinking woman in Moore though turned the tables on the subject of her VPO and left him caught red handed.
According to police, the female victim received a telephone call to her cell phone in mid December from a David Lynn Craig, 41.
Reportedly, Craig "informed her that he will find her regardless of where she may try to hide."
The victim drove immediately to the Moore police station while keeping Craig on the line.
According to police, the victim then quietly handed the phone over to an officer who heard Craig comment that the VPO, "is not worth the paper it is written on" among other priceless quotes sure to please the judge.
On January 19 Craig was charged with the crime of violating the previously mentioned victim's protective order.
