(Stillwater, Okla.) — A Ripley man with a history of drug charges has been given a five-year prison term for stalking his ex-girlfriend while she was visiting relatives in Perkins, court records show..
Jackie Lee Boyles Jr., 31, who has been jailed on $100,000 bail for 18 months, was given a concurrent five-year prison term for possessing methamphetamine in Stillwater.
Boyles pleaded guilty last week to calling his ex-girlfriend on a cellular phone, leaving messages and sending text messages hundreds of times to harass, intimidate and threaten her between Dec. 21, 2007, and Jan. 14, 2008, in violation of a protective order that she had obtained against him in Pottawatomie County.
Boyles also pleaded guilty to possessing methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia, in addition to violating a protective order, all on Sept. 8, 2007, in Stillwater, court records show.
His criminal record includes two methamphetamine possession convictions from Payne County for which he receive two concurrent five-year probationary sentences in 2002, court records show.
Perkins Police Lt. Jeremy Ronspiez wrote in an affidavit that the woman came to the police station on Christmas 2007 to report that while she was visiting relatives in Perkins, she started getting harassing phone calls and text messages from a phone number that Boyles was using.
While she was making the report at the Perkins police station, she was called three times by the same phone number, Ronspiez’s affidavit said.
“I tried answering the phone the three times it rang, in order to tell the subject to quit calling. Every time I would answer it, the caller would hang up on me without saying anything,” Ronspiez wrote in his affidavit.
About two weeks later, the woman again reported at the Perkins police station that she was visiting her relatives in Perkins when she started getting harassing phone calls and text messages, the affidavit said. She said that she received 38 phone calls and eight text messages from the phone number that Boyles was using, the affidavit said.
While she was making out that report, she was called seven times by that same phone number, Ronspiez wrote in his affidavit.
Multiple reports regarding the protective order violation had been made to the Stillwater Police Department, the Payne County Sheriff’s Office, the Perkins Police Department and the Shawnee Police Department, an affidavit said.
