Our local news has been a pervert rant lately. Turns out the judge here in Creek County where I live is a pervert.
He was in court yesterday to answer charges for pleasuring himself with a sex toy during while he was on the bench.
The CSI people came in and took samples from his black robes and the carpet under his desk and I guess they have some evidence.
Very disturbing individual. It has turned our local news into a bunch of sex talk and crude wierdness.
I can't post this article here without do some edits, even in the flamers ward, so red font will be my edits.

Oklahoma Judge Masturbating With
A SEX TOY During Court?
Sapulpa District Judge Donald Thompson, 57 has been accused of frequently masturbating and used a device for enhancing erections while his court was in session. The judge says he received a penis pump for his 50th birthday as a gag gift, which became a source of a running joke in the courthouse.
"On one occasion, Ms. (Lisa) Foster (Thompson's court reporter for 15 years), saw Judge Thompson holding his edited up and (edited ) with a disposable razor while on the bench," the petition reads. Several witnesses, including jurors in Thompson's court and police officers called to testify in trials, said in the petition they heard the "swooshing" sound of a Penis pump during trials and saw the judge slumped in his chair, with his elbows on his knees, working the device. The witnesses said the pump sounded like a blood pressure cuff being pumped up.
According to the petition, Thompson admitted he had a penis pump under the bench during a murder trial but he told investigators it was a gag gift from a friend. The petition also charges Thompson with firing his former court reporter after she cooperated with investigators. |

fuscia said this in post #2 :
O.K. that is just SICK!  Poor Whidden having a perv like that in your state.  |
Shoot, he is just a couple of miles down the road. We live in North Sapulpa, in a no mans zone between tulsa and Sapulpa.
You can tell the guy is a perv when you see him on the news. Something about his eyes.
Not saying you can pick out perverts by how they look, but sometimes they get so perverted, they get this strange wierdo look.
Scary bugger....
I wonder if some court cases will be overturned over this?

Ex-judge charged over penis-pump incident

OKLAHOMA CITY (Reuters) - A former U.S. state judge, who allegedly used a sex toy called a penis pump in court, has been charged with three felony counts of indecent exposure by Oklahoma authorities.
Former Judge Donald Thompson, 58, pleaded not guilty in the Creek County District Court in the northeastern Oklahoma town of Sapulpa. If convicted, Thompson could face up to 10 years in prison for each count.
At the courthouse on Thursday, Thompson was taken to a backroom where he provided a DNA sample to authorities.
Last year, a court reporter who worked for Thompson was fired after she said she saw the judge masturbate and use the penis pump during hearings. Other witnesses claimed they saw Thompson use the pump in court.
Thompson stepped down in August after the allegations came to light and the state attorney general acted to remove him from the bench.
Officials searched Thompson's courtroom and chambers, and performed tests on carpet, a chair, a trash can and the judge's robe.
A preliminary hearing has been scheduled for March 22. |

"Pump" Judge Gets Popped
Charge former Oklahoma jurist with exposing self on bench
JANUARY 21--The Oklahoma judge who was forced from the bench last year for using a penis pump in court (among other really gross acts) was charged yesterday with indecent exposure for his judicial indiscretions. Donald Thompson, 58, entered a not guilty plea yesterday to three felony counts during an appearance in Creek County District Court, where he worked until resigning last August. According to the below yucky probable cause affidavit, Thompson exposed himself during three separate 2003 cases (two of which were murder trials).
For example, on May 13, while he was presiding over State v. Kurt Arnold Vomberg (who was accused of killing his girlfriend's 21-month-old daughter), Thompson loudly pumped himself up. Two court employees told investigators that they saw Thompson (pictured in the mug shot at right) attach the suction device to his penis, while five jurors reported hearing whooshing sounds, which they thought were coming from either a bicycle pump, blood pressure cuff, or an air cushion on the judge's chair.
After a January 7 search of Thompson's former courtroom and chambers yielded items that tested positive for seminal fluid, investigators secured a search warrant to obtain a DNA sample from the ex-jurist. During testimony last year before the Council on Judicial Complaints, Thompson denied masturbating on the bench, using the penis pump, or depositing urine or semen into a wastebasket under his bench.
Thompson's demise was triggered by a complaint filed against him last June by the Oklahoma Attorney General, who sought to oust the jurist for a variety of illicit behavior, which the AG detailed in a removal petition. Along with using the penis pump, Thompson also allegedly shaved and oiled his private parts, according to accounts given to state investigators by a clerk, trial witnesses, and a court reporter.
If convicted of the indecent exposure counts, Thompson could face a maximum of 10 years in prison on each charge.

Okla. Judge's Career Ended by Allegations
Jurors and others in Judge Donald Thompson's courtroom kept hearing a strange whooshing noise, like a bicycle pump or maybe a blood pressure cuff. During one trial, Thompson seemed so distracted that some jurors thought he was playing a hand-held video game or tying fly-fishing lures behind the bench.
The explanation, investigators say, is even stranger than some imagined: The judge had a habit of masturbating with a penis pump under his robe during trials.
The lurid allegations have led to criminal charges against Thompson, brought an embarrassing end to a solid career and shocked many of his colleagues. The case could also lead to a wave of appeals from defendants claiming that the judge was not paying attention while presiding over their cases.
Thompson, a 58-year-old married father of three grown children, has denied the allegations, and said the pump was just a gag gift received from a hunting buddy on his 50th birthday. He retired in August after being threatened with removal from the bench, but still faces indecent-exposure charges brought against him last month.
"We're certainly saddened by the thought that the prosecutor filed charges," said Clark Brewster, Thompson's attorney. "We thought all this was dealt with when he resigned. We didn't feel like anything that was alleged rose to the level of criminal charges."
The trials during which he allegedly used the pump included murder cases as well as a libel suit in which a jury ordered the company that publishes The Oklahoman, a Web site and a TV station to pay $3.7 million.
Oklahoma Attorney General Drew Edmondson, who filed the paperwork to remove Thompson from the bench, said he would be surprised if the scandal did not lead to appeals. But he said: "I don't know if they will be successful. They will still have to show actual prejudice to the point that something was done in error."
Jim Wall, police chief in the small town of Sapulpa, said he had heard rumors of the judge's behind-the-bench activities for about a month, but added: "You've got the most powerful man in Creek County, and I think a lot people were intimidated by him."
Police built a case against the judge after one of Wall's officers testified during a 2003 murder trial. From the witness stand, the officer saw a piece of plastic tubing disappear under Thompson's robe. During a lunch break, officers took photographs of the pump under the desk.
Investigators later collected carpet samples, Thompson's robes and the chair from behind the bench, and found semen, according to court records.
A former state legislator and a judge with more than 20 years on the bench in Creek County in eastern Oklahoma, Thompson was well-liked in the community and had helped many young prosecutors and judges learn their jobs. But those who know him said he had become withdrawn in the past few years.
Thompson's court reporter, Lisa Foster, told authorities that she saw him use the pump at least 10 times during trials. She said the first time in court was in 2000, but she did not tell authorities. "I didn't want to be found dead in a ditch somewhere," she told The Associated Press.
Foster told authorities she saw Thompson use the device almost daily during the August 2003 murder trial of Kurt Vomberg, a man accused of shaking a toddler to death. The case ended in a hung jury. The whooshing sound could be heard on Foster's audiotape of the trial.
When jurors at the trial asked the judge about the sound, Thompson said he hadn't heard it, but would listen for it.
Foster and a bailiff were fired by Thompson after giving statements against him.
"I always thought he was an excellent trial judge," said Don I. Nelson, who tried more than 40 cases before Thompson as the prosecutor assigned to his court.
Nelson handled a murder trial during which authorities say Thompson used the pump. The jury ended up convicting the defendant on the lesser charge of manslaughter.
"I never heard anything that was going on," Nelson said. "I was completely shocked and couldn't believe it."

UNUSUAL TALES: Judge Convicted of Using a Penis Pump in Court
Frank Tridico -- SooNews.ca -- Sunday, July 16, 2006, 12:05AM
A former U.S. judge has been convicted of exposing himself by utilizing a sexual device while he presided over court cases. A Creek County jury found Donald Thompson, 59, guilty on four counts of indecent exposure and recommended one year in prison and a $10,000 fine on each count.
The investigation into Thompson's actions began after a police officer saw a penis pump in the judge's courtroom. The charges involved four jury trials in 2002 and 2003.
Thompson's former court reporter, Lisa Foster, testified that she recollected hearing slushing noises from behind the bench, and attributed the action to the judge. Her testimony became even more graphic, as she went on to recant that Thompson exposed his genitals to her at least 15 times. At least one gasp was heard from the courtroom during testimony.
Thompson served on the bench for 20 years in eastern Oklahoma and retired in 2004. He vehemently denied using a penis pump, claiming that it was a novelty gift that never really was broken in. The pump was examined carefully and did not appear to have been in stellar condition.
Thompson was ordered into custody on a $75,000 bond. His sentencing is scheduled next month. Prosecutor Patricia High stated, "The same justice system that he abused held him accountable."
Defence lawyer Clark Brewster did not speak to media, and attempts at photographing the pump were not allowed.
The conviction will require Thompson to register as a sex offender, deflating all possibilities that his sexual piccadillo will be forgotten.
