Alabama Brother, Sister Arrested for Incest Mother Turned-In Siblings After Allegedly Catching Them Having Sex
TRAFFORD, Ala. (April 20) - A brother and sister were arrested on felony incest charges after the man's wife called sheriff's deputies, who allegedly caught the siblings having sex.
Ronald Stewart Howze, 44, of Trafford, and Lori Ann Rotton, 41, of Smyrna, Ga., were arrested around midnight on April 7, said Jefferson County sheriff's spokesman Randy Christian. They remain jailed Wednesday with bond set at $50,000 each.
If convicted, Howze and Rotton could each be sentenced to 10 years in prison.
Authorities said Howze's wife believed her husband and his sister were having sex so she called deputies. The wife let the officer into their trailer home, and the deputy saw the siblings having sex in a bedroom, Christian said.
The officer had to twice tell the couple to stop, and the officer's report quoted the man as saying "I guess I'm going to jail" after they finally complied, according to Christian.
Both brother and sister had been drinking, and Rotton was initially taken to a hospital because she appeared so intoxicated, Christian said.
The man told the officer he wanted to "go out crazy" after being diagnosed with cancer, The Birmingham News reported Wednesday.
Tommy McFarland, an attorney representing Howze, said his client told him he could not remember what happened. Howze said he suffers from seizures and asked to see a psychiatrist, according to McFarland.
Rotton is set to make her first court appearance Thursday.

Yep, we're not exactly talking Donny and Marie here.
this hasn't been a good year for Alabama. first they had their all-Alabama-dude team on Survivor whittled down to zero by back-to-back-to-back-to-back, etc. losses; and now this!
EGAD! If only we had audio of this call.
"Cletus, yeh best git down here ragght quick. Durn Ronnie's humpin' his bebbe sister aggin! They's like dawgs in hoit er sumpin', ah turned the hose on 'em and they won't a-separate."
No, but she can still call him "Daddy".
Nope, there's no mention of trains, Mama, prison and pickup-trucks.
i sense a screenplay in the offing... ; ) this is the most unbelievable story i have heard in eons!
She is going to be releashed to house arrest make that trailer house arrest with an ankle bracelet like Martha Stewart only difference being is that both her ankles will be in one bracelet!
This is the part I just cannot get over. The image... it's too much.
ROTFL!!!
Are you mockin' me? ;-)
"Yor honor...If ye had to look thru vernacualars to see us...how'd ye know'd fer sure it was me?"
Now that's funny right thar. I don't care who you are, that's funny.
She looks like she's had a hard life. Judging from the article, it's about to get a little harder.
Well, after all, incest is best when you keep it the family!
I guess you could say the brother had to git er done.
I'm sure there is a Country Western song in there somewhere.
Section 13A-13-2
Adultery.
(a) A person commits adultery when he engages in sexual intercourse with another person who is not his spouse and lives in cohabitation with that other person when he or that other person is married.
Well, they can't be charged with adultery. They weren't living together.
Au contraire. They forgot to mention a truck.
Something got harder for her boyfriend, er brother, too, and that's why she's in this mess...
