(Stillwater, Okla.) — A Glencoe man, who was reportedly allowed back into a woman’s house due to a gunshot wound to his foot, has been jailed on $20,000 bail on a felony charge of domestic violence that allegedly occurred when he picked her up and slammed her into a bed frame — while her three young children were present in the house.
If convicted in his new case that was filed four months after he was given probation for domestic assault and battery by strangulation in 2017, Casey Lorenz Reinhardt, 26, could be sentenced to as much as 10 years in prison for domestic violence as a second and subsequent offense, court records show.
Reinhardt was also already on probation for possessing methamphetamine with intent to distribute in Stillwater in 2015 after serving about five months in the Regimented Inmate Discipline (RID) boot camp prison program and then completing the Payne County Drug Court program.
Payne County Sheriff’s Deputy Dalton Ross was sent at 12:50 am on Jan. 15 to a rural Glencoe residence regarding a physical domestic incident in which the alleged assailant had left in a truck in an unknown direction, according to his affidavit filed with the charge last week.
The victim, who was visibly shaken, “complained of back pain and stated her breast hurt,” the affidavit said.
“She advised me that she had problems with Reinhardt before, but she recently let him come back due to a gunshot wound to his foot. She said he needed to get back and forth to doctors and mentioned possible surgery for him,” the affidavit said.
“She said he had been out drinking and came home intoxicated. She said he went to the master bedroom and fell asleep on his back. She advised me that she waited until her children were asleep to go into the bedroom,” the affidavit said. She said her children, ages 1 to 7, were asleep in the living room when the assault occurred, the affidavit alleged.
“She told me she went into the bedroom where Reinhardt was laying on the bed. She told me she grabbed his hat and moved it so she could lay down and go to sleep. She said Reinhardt woke up and grabbed her by her left breast. She said he pulled her to the edge of the bed — pulling hard enough that it forced her to bend over the bed.
“She said he then grabbed her with both arms while her head was buried in his chest. Reinhardt picked her up and slammed her on her back into the nightstand. She advised he then left the residence. I observed the area where the nightstand was and observed it to be in disarray. By the nightstand was a box fan that was crushed,” the deputy alleged in his affidavit.
“During my investigation, Deputy Joe Henninger advised me he located Reinhardt in his pickup in the area of VFW Road and Rose Road,” the deputy wrote in his affidavit.
After the woman agreed to have a female medical technician with LifeNet examine her injuries and photograph them, “I observed the photos and noticed fresh bruising and marks that appeared to be from fingers apply intense force on her breast,” the deputy wrote in his affidavit.
“I contacted Deputy Henninger and advised him of the injuries and advised him to place Reinhardt under arrest for domestic abuse in the presence of a minor,” the deputy wrote in his affidavit.
The woman was examined further by ambulance personnel and refused transport, the affidavit said. “I spoke with her about Wings of Hope and getting an emergency protective order,” the deputy wrote in his affidavit.
Reinhardt has been scheduled to be arraigned on the domestic violence charge by video from the Payne County Jail this week, court records show.
