A police chief in Wister, Oklahoma found himself on the wrong side of the law when Oklahoma Highway Patrol arrested him for aggravated DUI with a child in the vehicle. The crash left visible injuries on the chief, and now exclusive footage obtained by Guerrilla Publishing reveals the dramatic arrest that has shaken the small town.
The Arrest That Rocked Wister
CT Morrison, the police chief of Wister, was taken into custody by Oklahoma Highway Patrol after allegedly wrecking his truck while intoxicated. The charges include aggravated DUI and child endangerment, as Morrison had his own child in the vehicle during the incident. Photos from his arrest show significant injuries to his head, suggesting the crash was severe enough to cause substantial damage.
The case came to light through a viewer tip to Guerrilla Publishing, prompting an investigation into what exactly happened that night on Oklahoma roads.
Dash Cam Evidence Secured
Guerrilla Publishing traveled to LeFlore County Sheriff's Office to obtain crucial dash cam and body camera footage from the arrest. Lieutenant Moss at the sheriff's office was cooperative in providing the records, charging only $13 for the disc containing the footage. This represents a stark contrast to other agencies that have demanded hundreds of dollars for similar records.
The footage promises to show the complete sequence of events, from the initial traffic stop through Morrison's arrest and booking process. According to sources, Morrison's injuries were significant enough to be clearly visible in his booking photo.
A Pattern of Problematic Chiefs
This incident occurs amid broader concerns about police leadership in eastern Oklahoma. The investigation reveals connections to other controversial cases, including allegations against chiefs in neighboring departments. The crash site where Morrison wrecked his vehicle remains accessible, and investigators plan to document the scene to understand the full scope of the incident.
LeFlore County officials have been notably transparent throughout the process, a refreshing change from departments that typically obstruct records requests or charge excessive fees for public information.
What the Footage Will Reveal
The obtained dash cam and body camera footage is expected to show Morrison's condition at the time of arrest, the circumstances of the crash, and how officers handled the situation involving the endangered child. The footage will also document any statements Morrison made during his arrest and booking process.
The full extent of Morrison's injuries and their correlation to the crash damage should become clear once the footage is analyzed. Additionally, the recordings may reveal how Oklahoma Highway Patrol officers addressed the child endangerment aspect of the incident.
