Dewey Man Charged with Stalking

 

A Dewey man is accused of two felony counts of stalking, one misdemeanor count of resisting an officer and one misdemeanor charge of disturbing the peace.

 

According to the Dewey Police Department, 18-year-old Isaac Joseph Turner had been stalking two individuals for several consecutive days, including driving by a residence and shouting profanities at the victims. Turner told the victims that he was going to smoke them and bury them in the county. The stalking happened on 14 separate occasions.

 

On March 13th, Turner was set to appear in Dewey Municipal Court when he began yelling in the lobby of the police department. He was asked to quiet down or go outside. While outside, Turner flipped someone off while cursing. He then became combative with officers when they ordered him to come in for court. Turner began cursing the officers, and police warned him if he continued, he would be placed under arrest for disorderly conduct. Turner reportedly continued cursing and officers attempted to place him under arrest. Officers tackled Turner to the ground and he became combative. Following a brief struggle, officers were able to place Turner in handcuffs. He is being held in the Washington County Jail on a $35,000 aggregate bond. His next court date is April 4th.
