The penis of a former Wisconsin felon is under much scrutiny after police served a warrant to see how it was damaged. Otis Lockett, who was shot in the groin, told police that he was fired upon “by an unidentified person behind him,” according to a Circuit Court filing, which notes that the 27-year-old was treated at Froedtert Hospital “for a single gunshot wound to his penis.”
Since hospital workers reported that the bullet’s trajectory was a “downward 45-degree angle,” police suspected that Lockett accidentally shot himself. Which means that the convicted felon, who is on probation, was illegally in possession of a handgun.
Detective Gena Malanche filed for a search warrant seeking permission to have medical personnel “safely remove any bandages in the area of Lockett’s groin to facilitate photography of the area.” The resulting photos, Malanche added, would help investigators establish that Lockett was a felon in possession of a firearm.
The warrant was approved by Court Commissioner Barry Phillips, who authorized police to “photograph the penis of Otis Lockett for analysis by the proper authorities.” A Milwaukee Police Department property inventory notes that a CD of “photos taken of Lockett’s injuries pursuant to warrant” had been logged.
The police are too smart for this old trick - accidentally shoot off your penis and then blame it on some drive by shooter. The cops know that only a jilted lover is going for the groin. A real shooter is going for your chest.
