Senatorial Privileges Denied

June 9th 2019 Newsletter
Sadly this is what we have come to expect from Oklahoma State Senators and their families. Pamela Yen was featured in our newsletter in October of 2017 after being arrested for assault and battery after she was caught trying to steal items from a Del City estate sale. But the story had legs, after her arrest she filed a lawsuit against the estate sale owner and lost her suit and lost a counter suit filed by the owner of the estate sale.
Mrs. Yen had found a painting in a storage area, sent there after it had been sold to another customer, took it to a register and tried to purchase it. She threw a fit allegedly after finding out someone had already purchased the painting, leading to what was described as a thirty minute rant and rave episode.

Mrs. Yen was asked to leave after thirty minutes of disruption and eventually the police were called in to arrest her. Yen had bit the owner twice and reverse head butted him during the confrontation over a pair of $12.00 swim flippers that she had grabbed before she attempted to flee the building. She managed to knock out a tooth from the owner's mouth before being subdued. She was able to get the charges dismissed thanks to Senator Yen's connections but then one year later in October of 2018 she filed a lawsuit against the estate sale owner for false imprisonment and assault and battery. Yeah, what an idiot!

The estate sale owner filed a counter claim which was dismissed but not until after the judge had ruled against Pamela Yen and awarded $7,177.00 in damages to the estate sale owner. It seems that the business had video cameras working so the version of the facts told by Mrs. Yen turned out to be completely false.

Senator Ervin Yen's son was arrested just a few weeks later on a DUI in Norman. Somehow the arrest has been scrubbed off the OSCN.net records but there remains a filing where Yen attempted to get an unrestricted drivers license which was denied but his license suspension was modified to allow him to operate a vehicle that has a drunk driver interlock installed. The hilarious part was that Senator Yen had filed and passed into law SB 529 that required first offense drunk drivers to have an interlock device put on their cars and the dirt bag's own son would up facing that justice. Thanks Daddy.....

Both arrests were included in a twelve page magazine that was mailed into Senator Yen's district a few days before the primary in 2018, which along with a ravenous pack of baby stroller pushing momma bears from the vaccine group ensured Senator Yen's defeat.

Still it is obvious that there are two legal systems. One for the common folk and one for well connected wealthy people or legislators.
