(Stillwater, Okla.) – A Cushing woman — who was sentenced to prison last month for violating her probation on drug and stolen property cases — was charged today with having hit a man on his side with a baseball bat and also having thrown a bottle through her neighbor’s window, both on July 3 in Cushing.
    Vanessa Ann Pearson, 33, has been scheduled to be returned to Payne County District Court from prison on Nov. 29 to be arraigned on her newest charges, court records show.
    Due to her criminal record, if convicted of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon after two former felony convictions, Pearson could be sentenced to 20 years to life in prison plus a $10,000 fine.
    If convicted of malicious injury to her neighbor’s property, Pearson could be given an additional one-year jail term and a $500 fine, court records show.
    According to Payne County court records, Pearson had previously been convicted in Payne County on Nov. 2, 2016, of:
    * delivery of a controlled drug in 2012 for which she was given a seven-year suspended sentence except 60 days in jail;
    * marijuana possession within 1,000 feet of a park and knowingly concealing stolen property in 2016 for which she was given a concurrent five-year suspended sentence except 60 days in jail.
    However, on Sept. 25, Payne County Associate District Judge Stephen Kistler ruled that she had violated her probation in both cases and revoked the balance of her sentences to prison, which he said he would again suspend on her completion of a Regimented Treatment program, court records show.
