(Stillwater) — A Yale woman accused of pushing her husband into a wall on Memorial Day remains jailed on $10,000 bail, three months after she was placed on probation for domestic assault with a dangerous weapon.
If convicted of domestic violence as a subsequent offense, Jamie Lynn Brown, 41, could be given as much as a four-year prison term, according to the felony charge filed last week. She has been ordered to appear in court on July 1.
Her husband said he had been staying with his mother with the two younger children “because his wife has been under the influence of methamphetamine,” Yale Police Officer Stephen Lombard alleged in an affidavit.
“He said he told his kids to call the police because he knows how she is when she is under the influence of methamphetamine,” the affidavit alleged.
A young boy “told me that he saw his mother toss his father’s things off the bed and then go and shove him into the bedroom closet,” the officer alleged in his affidavit.
Brown’s husband “told me his wife has been up for around five days that he knows of. Brown said when his wife gets like that he just leaves because there is nothing he can do about the way she acts.
“He told me she screams and makes threats to harm him and breaks things in the home. Brown said he received a call from his wife, and she wanted to talk with him, and she seemed calm at the time, and the kids need some things from the home.
“Brown said that they had been at the home a short time when she started screaming at him to get out of her home. Brown said he was in the closet getting some things when his wife tossed some of his things from the bed onto the floor and she came around and pushed him into the bedroom closet,” the affidavit alleged.
The officer called for back-up “since other Yale officers who have dealt with Jamie Brown ended up using a taser to get her to comply,” the affidavit alleged.
After Yale Police Captain Larry Harris arrived, Jamie Brown was arrested for domestic violence, the affidavit said.
She “kept saying ‘I cannot believe they are doing this to me,” over and over again on the way out of the house to the patrol car,” where she “started busting her head into the cage while her children were watching,” the affidavit alleged.
She “had blood running down from her forehead and all over the cage in my patrol car. Yale E.M.S. was called to the scene to treat (Jamie) Brown, along with Life Net Ambulance, since Cushing is flooded in. (Jamie) Brown was transported to Stillwater Medical Center where according to Life Net paramedics she will be needing a few stitches in her forehead,” the Yale officer wrote in his affidavit.
Brown’s husband “told me that he is the primary care provider for the children at this time. He also told me that he has a lot of problems recovering from a stroke he had some time ago,” the officer wrote in his affidavit.
Brown obtained an emergency protective order against his wife on behalf of himself and four children on May 30, court records show.
Three months ago, for domestic assault with a dangerous weapon in Yale in 2018, Jamie Brown was given a 10-year suspended sentence except a 60-day jail term, with an order to undergo random drug testing, continue outpatient mental health treatment and medicine management, and have an anger management course, court records show.
In 2011, Jamie Brown had been given a five-year deferred sentence for eluding a police officer in Yale and possessing the drug, Nuvigil, court records show.
