BEFORE AND AFTER
The former Wister Police Chief is facing a felony
charge after he allegedly crashed his vehicle while
driving drunk and having his underage child in the
back seat.
Kurt Dewayne Morsund, 45, was charged May 2
with felony child endangerment by driving under the
influence and misdemeanor DUI alcohol- aggravated,
in LeFlore County District Court.
According to court information, on April 28, Morsund was driving his 2014 Dodge
Ram near Glendale Road in LeFlore County while transporting his 10-year-old daughter when he crashed. When the OHP trooper administered the state’s test, it registered
over .15 or higher. The affidavit states his BOC was .21- almost three times the legal
limit.
Reports state witnesses saw Morsund hit some guardrails at Wister Dam before he
crashed his truck into a tree. When troopers arrived on scene, Morsund had “slurred
speech, was unsteady on his feet, and alcohol could be smelled on his breath.”
When questioned about his alcohol consumption, Morsund said he drank vodka
after the crash. When the trooper asked where the bottle was, he replied, “What vodka?” No bottles were found at the crash site and witnesses said they didn’t see Morsund consume anything after the crash.
Morsund eventually admitted to having shots of alcohol before the crash. He was
booked into the Latimer county jail; charges were filed in LeFlore County.
After charges were filed, Morsund turned in his resignation to the Wister City Board
of Trustees.
Bond for Morsund was set at $10,000 and he is scheduled to next appear in court
on June 3.

AROUND THE NATION
What a crappy thing to do!
A teenager was allegedly toppled over a porta potty at a New Hampshire park May 8 — covering the
mother and 4-year-old daughter inside with filth, according to police.
Aiden Studer, 18, is accused of pushing the john
from behind so that it landed on its door, trapping the
pair inside the disgusting box.
“The pair reported being covered in feces and
bodily fluids,” Manchester police said.
Witnesses told police that Studer had been arguing with the mother near the porta-potty at Derryfield Park until she went inside to assist her daughter. That’s when the
vengeful teen allegedly struck. They weren’t inside for long, however — bystanders
rushed to free the mother-daughter pair.
Studer allegedly ended his tirade by throwing an unknown object at officers who
arrived on the scene. It does not appear as though the teenager knew the mother
before striking.
He was arrested and charged with two counts of criminal restraint and criminal
mischief, as well as simple assault on a police officer.

TIME SERVED
Lawanna Renee Pogue, 41, of McAlester, was
sentenced to time served for possessing a firearm after being previously convicted of a felony
offense.
The charges arose from investigations by the
Pittsburg County Sheriff’s Office and the Bureau
of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
On April 19, 2023, Pogue pleaded guilty to
one count of Felon in Possession of a Firearm.
According to investigators, on December 25, 2022, deputies with the Pittsburg County Sheriff’s Office stopped Pogue’s vehicle after observing a traffic
infraction and located a .22 caliber firearm in the vehicle’s trunk compartment. Pogue later admitted to possessing the firearm despite her status as
a convicted felon. DONALD

COLD CASE INVESTIGATION
CONTINUES
On the afternoon of Monday November 29, 2021,
while grading a rural Cherokee County dirt road, Cherokee County District 1 employees discovered the body
of a deceased male lying down an embankment below
the roadway and notified the Cherokee County Sheriff’s
Office.
CCSO investigators responded to the area. It appeared the victim had been pushed or thrown off the
roadway down the embankment. The victim came to rest on its right side with its back
against a tree. The victim had been partially concealed in two black trash bags and his
wrists were bound together. The victim was clothed in black ankle socks with white images printed on them, greyish blue sweatpants over black shorts with a nylon drawstring
and a red and black fleece styled zippered jacket. The victim was dark skinned with black
hair and his hair appeared to be cut very close to the skin on the sides and longer than
shoulder length in the back.
An investigator with the Tulsa office of the Oklahoma Chief Medical Examiner responded to the scene. The ME investigator estimated the victim was placed in the scene during
the late evening hours of Saturday November 27, 2021.
No items of identification such as a wallet, driver’s license or Social Security card were
found with the body. The victim had a tattoo on his right forearm that consisted of five
letters, A Y I A J.
With the help of the tattoo on the victim’s right forearm, the victim was identified as MIGUEL JOSUE ORTEGA, a 27-year-old resident of Decatur, Arkansas. ORTEGA’s cause
and manner of death was determined to be homicide by gunshot.
If you have any information on this homicide, please give me a call at 918-456-2583.

AROUND THE STATE
A Chickasha man who failed to show up for a
court appearance for a misdemeanor charge is
being held in jail on an unusually high bond of
$500,000. Why? He signed a court document
with an expletive. 31-year old Joshua Nathaniel
Ashley was arrested Sunday because he failed
to show up for a hearing in March. The hearing was scheduled after Ashley was arrested in
December for driving without a license. In his court appearance Monday he
signed “f--- you” on the court minute document and Special District Judge
Gina Lowe set his bond at a half-million dollars.

14 | JUNE 2024 HASKELL COUNTY Presumed Innocent Until Proven Guilty
DRUG DEALING FOR DUMMIES:
CHAPTER 2
In This Chapter You Will Learn:
• Rule Number One: Don’t Be A Drug Dealer
• Rule Number Two: No Matter What, Don’t Be A Drug Dealer
• Rule Number Three: If You Are Gonna Transport Drugs Don’t Do Stupid &#!t!!
• Rule Number Four: K-9’s Can Smell Your Dope
To truly understand the importance of the four basic rules listed above, let’s look at what happened last year
to Anthony Riposta and Aaron Esposito, who not only forgot basic rule number one, but apparently didn’t follow
any of the basic rules and as such, found themselves in jail with the other drug dealers that couldn’t follow the
rules either!!
Not only did they forget the importance of not being a scumbag drug dealer, but they also forgot that if you are
going to be a drug dealer, you better not do dumb stuff like making an illegal turn. As is often the case when you
violate these simple, but yet important rules, the Deputies usually show up, a big giant dog sniffs your vehicle, and
then you get cuffed and stuffed in the back of a patrol car as we seize your illegal drugs!!
In yet another classic example of what happens when you ignore the advice provided in “Drug Dealing For Dummies”, a deputy stopped a vehicle being driven by Riposta and made contact with him and his little friend Esposito.
The deputy then gets a little help from his friends, another deputy and his K-9 deputy partner, who alerts on the
vehicle, and then Riposta and Esposito are soon on their way to jail!!
Located during a search of the vehicle on the dash were three orange pills that were subsequently determined
to be Amphetamine/Dextroamphetamine. Also located on the dash was a single broken white pill that field-tested
positive for cocaine, and 35 additional orange pills that were determined to be Amphetamine/Dextroamphetamine.
The pills were contained in a green prescription bottle with the prescribed persons’ name ripped off. The pill bottle
was located in the center console of Riposta’s vehicle, next to two prescription pill bottles with Riposta’s name on
them.
As a result of the vehicle search, Riposta was placed under arrest and charged with Possession of a Controlled
Substance and given a free ride to jail, where he got some nice, slightly used shower slides and a gift certificate for
a Honey Bun from the inmate commissary!!
Oh and his little friend Esposito…yeah he took the ride too as a lawful search of his person produced four
baggies that were hidden in his underwear that contained a clear crystal substance which field-tested positive
for methamphetamine and weighed a total of 13.7 grams. He also had two baggies containing a white powdery
substance that field-tested positive for fentanyl and weighed a total of 8.9 grams. Additionally, he had three orange
pills that were identified as Buprenorphine/
Naloxone, and five purple pills that were
identified as Alprazolam/Xanax that were
also hidden in his underpants as well!!
Esposito was subsequently placed under arrest for Trafficking in Methamphetamine and two counts of Possession of a
Controlled Substance Without Prescription.
Esposito also got a luxurious package at the
jail when he arrived, that included shower
slides, tailored striped suit, and a thorough
search by our very accommodating staff
since he likes to hide stuff in his undies!!
