Published August 28, 2008 10:45 am - Man caught blacking out sex offender notification on license By BOB GIBBINS TAHLEQUAH DAILY PRESS — A Tulsa man pleaded guilty Wednesday to marking through a sex offender notification on his driver’s license.
Cherokee County prosecutors charged Skelton, 60, with deleting or altering information on his driver’s license after Oklahoma Highway Patrol Trooper Zachary Woods filed a ticket citing him for the offense. A notation on the bottom of the ticket states the sex offender notification was obliterated with a black marker. Woods stopped Skelton on U.S. Highway 62 near the Midway area. No other citations have been filed against him. Skelton was charged in Tulsa County in 1996 with sexual battery and originally granted a deferred five-year judgment. Prosecutors later filed an application to accelerate the deferred judgment. A judge sentenced Skelton to five years in prison and ordered completion of a sex offender treatment program. Department of Corrections records show Skelton served two years and was released from custody in 2002. The state’s sex offender registry lists Skelton’s case as “aggravated.” He is registered as a sex offender in Tulsa County. The sexual battery count was investigated by Broken Arrow police. Special District Judge Sandy Crosslin ordered Skelton to pay a $50 fine and court costs by Sept. 19 on the new charge, which is filed as a misdemeanor. Assistant District Attorney Josh King prosecuted the case.
