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.

Omg.
A young Joe Scarborough
I think you are on to something. Let me take it a step farther. She was with her brother because her husband is Rotton?
Only thing missing is a train whistle.
We found out when we checked the registered sex-offenders list for their neighborhood ( Registry Entry - Brother ) and then the usual gossip channels. No one knows who has the kid.
Too bad they were in Alabama. If they were in Vermont, Connecticut or Massachusetts, they'd be able to argue they should be married. Discrimination, donchaknow?
There's a Grammy winner CW song in those words somewhere.............
Rotton made a court appearance on Thursday, and she appeared to not understand the charges leveled against her. "Let me explain it to you," Judge Cahill told the woman. "You're charged with having sex with your brother. That's what you're charged with in the vernacular." The lawyer for Howze said he suffers from seizures and does not remember what happened.
Your Honor we wasn't in no vernacular - we was in a 1961 8 x 56 trailer house.
Oh dear. Perfect country song? They're twins!
"This story has it all."
Not really, no trains, no pickup trucks, or at least one pit bull. It could also been enhanced had one of the officers been injured triping over a refrigerator or other appliance on the front porch.
Judge Cahill to Ms. Rotton: "You're charged with having sex with your brother. That's what you're charged with in the vernacular."
Ms. Rotton: "venacular?, nah yore honor, we wuz was nekkid"
lol, like minds.

This family tree is twisted beyond comprehension. Pinging Quantum Physics experts...
In Trafford this is called "A Family Affair". Where are Buffy and Jody?
LOL

Most excellent point for all hypocrites to ponder. "A Law" doesn't make something right or wrong, but merely places a stamp of approval on many things that ought not to be.
