Woman Asks 911 to Send 'Cutie Pie' Deputy
Friday, July 14, 2006
ALOHA, Ore. - A woman who called 911 to get "the cutest cop I've
seen" sent back to her home got a date all right - a court date.
The same sheriff's deputy arrested her on charges of misuse of
the emergency dispatch system.
Washington County Sheriff's Sgt. David Thompson told KGW-TV of
Portland it all started with a noise complaint called in last
month by neighbors of Lorna Jeanne Dudash. The deputy sent to
check on the complaint knocked on her door, then left.
Thompson said Dudash then called 911, asking that the "cutie pie"
deputy return.
"He's the cutest cop I've seen in a long time. I just want to know
his name," Dudash told the dispatcher. "Heck, it doesn't happen
very often that a good man comes to your doorstep."
After listening to some more, followed by a bit of silence, the
dispatcher asked again why Dudash needed the deputy to return.
"Honey, I'm just going to be honest with you, OK? I just thought
he was cute. I'm 45 years old and I'd just like to meet him again,
but I don't know how to go about doing that without calling 911,"
she said.
"I know this is absolutely not in any way, shape or form an
emergency, but if you would give the officer my phone number
and ask him to come back, would you mind?"
The deputy returned, verified that there was no emergency and
arrested her for misusing the 911 system, an offense punishable
by a fine of up to several thousand dollars and a year in jail.
Thompson said Thursday it was the first case he knew of in which
someone called the emergency line for such a personal reason.
"That's taking up valuable time from dispatchers who could be
taking true emergency calls," he said.
... 911: We're here to save your ass, not kiss it.
