6A SATURDAY, AUGUST 12, 2006 Police Beat Someone needs his mouth washed out with soap By RAYLIGHTNER Journal Staff Writer Dropping expletives while talking with a deputy just might get you charged with disorderly conduct. Doing so while relieving one’s self in the woods and being otherwise uncoopera tive will land you a trip to jail. Ronald Edward Cox found that out Aug. 5 after a con versation with a deputy in the area of North Houston and Greenbriar roads. At about 7:56 p.m., a depu ty observed a white male run into the wooded area behind the self-storage buildings. He then made contact with the individual, Cox. When he asked Cox what he was doing in the woods, Cox reportedly yelled back he was taking a (strong expletive). When asked why he didn’t go to the convenience store across the street, Cox said they wouldn’t let him in. The deputy advised him he could not urinate in view of the public, and that people driving by could see him. When asked for his ID, Cox said he had it with him but would not give it to the deputy. The man reportedly said the deputy knew who the (repeated strong expletive) he was and that he didn’t have time for “this (another expletive).” The deputy replied that he “did not” know who the man was and needed some identification. Cox then told the deputy he didn’t have time for the city of Warner Robins or the deputy’s (expletive) and he was (expletive) leaving. He started to walk away, but was stopped and told he could not leave until his identification was verified. He then reportedly said everyone knows who he is and called the deputy a dero gative term using another strong expletive as he walked off. Cox was grabbed by the arm and advised he would be going to jail if he didn’t tell the deputy who he was. The man reportedly responded: “take me to (you guessed it - expletive) jail then.” The deputy obliged, plac ing him in custody on charg es of disorderly conduct and obstruction of an officer. Cox reportedly continued to yell and curse at the dep uty, saying it was (expletive) because everyone knew who he was. The deputy report edly asked how he was sup posed to know the man to which Cox reportedly told the deputy not to give him that (expletive), because he knew who he was. The deputy asked the man if he knew who the deputy was, to which he subject said he didn’t give a (expletive). The deputy then found the subject’s driver’s license in his wallet, identifying Cox, 42, of 113 Marilyn Drive, Warner Robins. He was then placed in the patrol car and taken to jail. Suspect with knife On Aug. 5 about mid night, a deputy responded to Holt Avenue in reference to a subject with a knife. There, he met with Jessie Ramirez, who was sitting on the porch. Ramirez told the officer he was inside when a brick came through the window and hit him in the leg. He then ran outside and noticed a group of males running from the residence. The deputy noticed a group of people at the end of the residence and queried them. One reportedly told him that Ramirez chased him with a knife as he was walking near the residence. Other witnesses reported ly said Ramirez was yelling and threatening anyone he could see. Ramirez was sub sequently taken into custody and placed in the patrol car. The deputy also noted the window Ramirez said was broken did not have any glass in the area nor was there any other broken win dows. The deputy locked the residence and returned to the car. As they were backing out of the driveway, Ramirez reportedly asked if the dep uty would lock the residence and became angry when advised it already had been done. Ramirez reportedly began to hit his head on the shield in the patrol car. When asked to sit back in the seat, Ramirez reportedly told the deputy he was “going to hunt him down and kill his child molesting (expletive).” At the jail Ramirez was placed in a holding cell and reportedly began to yell and curse. When asked to lower his voice, Ramirez reportedly stated “(here we go again - expletive)” and spat in the deputy’s direction, hitting him in the chest. Ramirez was then belly chained to the bench until he was turned over to detention deputies. Jessie Ray Ramirez, 39, of 117 Holt Ave., Warner Robins, was charged with simple assault/battery, ter roristic threats/intimidation, disorderly conduct, disturb ing the peace and miscella neous offenses.
