SAPULPA — Eric Roberts, a former Oklahoma Highway Patrol trooper who was arrested and charged last year with a series of on-duty rapes was bound over for trial Friday on one of the three cases he faces.
Testimony was given by the alleged victim in the first case filed against Roberts, which alleges he pulled a woman over last July in Tulsa County, eventually driving her to a secluded location where he ordered her to perform a sexual act.
“I’m really anxious for (the OSBI) to come in and sit down and talk to me and get started. … I think there’s a lot of questions that people have and I have those answers, but no one ever sat down with me to ask me.”

Capt. Bill McKelvey was placed on leave Monday, a spokesman for Sheriff Stanley Glanz said. The move that comes four days after McKelvey was named in a lawsuit alleging a former employee was subject to “hostile and malicious conduct.”

The security guard who shot and paralyzed a man earlier this year following an encounter at a south Tulsa apartment complex was charged Friday with possessing marijuana at the time of the shooting.
Ricky Stone, according to police documents, admitted to having a small amount of marijuana in a backpack inside his pickup the night he shot Monroe Bird through the neck. Bird, who was inside the car with a 15-year-old female friend when he was shot, crashed his car into a tree.
On Tuesday, Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Terry Simonson said in an email to The Frontier that Albin and Huckeby’s exit from TCSO was a termination, rendered following a personal investigation by Glanz.
Huckeby is the second member of sheriff’s office to retire in the fallout of the Eric Harris shooting. Tim Albin resigned from his position as undersheriff last month, and was quickly replaced by Rick Weigel.
