Drag Queens in the NEWS
ST. CLOUD, FL - A Florida man dressed in drag allegedly stalked his neighbor, urinated on her porch and robbed her in St. Cloud.
Ronald Alan Hoth, 56, was finally arrested after deputies used a "Taser, a K-9 and brute force," The Orlando Sentinel reported.
Jane Morningstar had complained to police in May that a man dressed in women's clothing peeked through her windows. Morningstar alleged the man also urinated and defecated on her porch, and she claimed she was robbed.
Deputies allege Hoth urinated on the porch while wearing a sheer nightgown, bustier, garter belt, stockings, high heels and a wig. Deputies allege Hoth then "pranced" through Morningstar's yard, the newspaper said.
When deputies approached, Hoth ran away, and even after being Tasered, the "cross-dressing burglar" kept on running.
Deputies tackled Hoth and in the scuffle, he bit one officer and clawed another's arm, the newspaper said. The K-9 bit Hoth.
Florida Department of Law Enforcement records show Hoth has a long record in Central Florida, with charges including grand theft, larceny, burglary and forgery.
Hoth faced a number of charges in the May incident, including burglary, battery on law enforcement officers and exposure of sex organs.
It's these little 'slice o' life' tales that usually point to greater, more important truths. Here we have two neighbors who obviously have some 'issues' with each other and at least one of them may have some more rather deep-seated personal conflicts regarding the proper attire worn when committing burglary. One NEVER wears a bustier while burglaring and it is simply in bad taste to don both garter belt AND nightgown before one is going to burglarize and is not actually on the way to bed. But perhaps the most important lesson to be learned here, is that while good fences MAY make for good neighbors, a twelve guage shotgun kept handy, will certainly go a long way towards guaranteeing that fact.

ha ha. I haven't seen the Guiliani one despite hearing about it forever. Funny!
The others were kind of boring even knowing they were men.
As for the pervert neighbor, yuk!

Nice segue from the 'kick in the crotch' post. I would shirley rather have the police come through my door accidently, than this creep.

A home invader is a home invader--that's why they 'invented' shotguns, etc.
Long live "make my day" laws--Colorado has a good one!
Damn few 'home invasions' in my area--everybody owns a firearm of some kind.

Virginia has the same rules, Cat. A policeman told a friend of mine in Richmond right after someone tried to break into their apartment that if they were to go through it again, to shoot the guy. And if he fell back out the window, to drag him back inside and shoot him until he was dead. The cop said just make sure they're dead otherwise they'll sue you.
Lordy....

I just remembered something. One awful summer in Richmond a couple of thugs broke into houses and killed a few people. The crimes went on for the whole summer and the whole city was freaked out. Seems the thugs broke into an old couples house and opened their bedroom door and threatened the couple. The wife reached under a pillow, pulled out a handgun and shot one of the guys dead on the spot. The other one ran away but he was caught.
Then another time two guys broke into a house - old folks, and they shot the man who had come downstairs to see what the ruckus was. They left him for dead and went upstairs to loot and pillage and probably to shoot the guy's wife. The old guy managed to get up, get his shotgun and go upstairs and shotgun both creeps into hell. I think he died on the scene, sad to say. But he saved his wife.
