Skylar Lee Hayes
By Patti Weaver
(Stillwater, Okla.) — A 19-year-old man was arraigned Tuesday from the Payne County Jail where he was being held on $5,000 bail on a charge of second-degree rape for allegedly having sexual relations with a girl under the age of 16 at Sanborn Lake.
If convicted, Skylar Lee Hayes, who had lived in Stillwater but listed his residence in Yale on jail records, could be imprisoned for one to 15 years, court records show.
The girl’s parents reported in March that their 14-year-old daughter had admitted to a school counselor she had sex with a relative’s boyfriend, Stillwater Police Officer Shawn Millermon alleged in an affidavit filed this month.
During an interview at the Saville Center in Stillwater, the girl said that he had touched her at his apartment in Stillwater, the affidavit alleged. The girl said that she attempted to get him to stop, but he did not, the affidavit alleged.
The girl said “she and Skylar left the apartment and drove to a nearby lake,” the affidavit alleged. The girl said “she and Skylar had intercourse,” at the lake and in his pickup, the affidavit alleged.
After unsuccessful attempts to contact the defendant, the Stillwater officer was able to interview him at his apartment in Stillwater in April, the affidavit said.
“Skylar told me once they left the apartment, he asked (the girl) if she wanted to have intercourse to which she nodded yes,” the officer alleged in his affidavit.
“Skylar stated he and (the girl) went to Sanborn Lake and parked between the two baseball fields,” where they had intercourse in his pickup, the affidavit alleged.
The defendant said he later drove the girl to her father’s house and dropped her off, the affidavit alleged.
“During the interview, I asked Skylar if he knew how old (the girl) was. Skylar told me 13. I asked Skylar if he knew what the age of consent in Oklahoma was. Skylar told me he did not, but knew it probably wasn’t (her) age,” the officer alleged in his affidavit.
