On September 30th, the Kay County District Attorney’s Office issued felony warrants for two Ponca City residents, 37-year-old Joel Si McBlair and his mother, 70-year-old Laura Sue Primeaux. These felony warrants were issued for Stalking charges against both subjects after multiple officers from the Ponca City Police Department investigated the repeated harassment of a neighbor that began in 2021. Multiple charges against the two were previously processed by the Ponca City Police Department through Ponca City Municipal Court but the behavior continued from both McBlair and Primeaux.
According to statements made by the victim, the examples of the escalating behavior from McBlair and Primeaux include yelling a multitude of racial slurs at adults and children as young as 6 months old. Examples of the slurs were threatening the victim with deportation from the United States, telling the victim to “get on a boat and go back to Mexico” and referring to the victim and children as “wet backs”. Other examples of the harassing behavior were McBlair and Primeaux threatening to allow their dogs to attack the victim and their children, throwing dog feces at the victim’s house and into the yard, trespassing and threats of personal harm. At one point, Primeaux told the victim she “prays that baby doesn’t live” when talking about the victim’s child.
Kay County Deputies arrested McBlair and Primeaux at their home on the evening of September 30th for their warrants and they have both been booked into the Kay County Detention Center for Stalking. Bond was set for each of them at $20,000.00. We’d like to thank the victim and neighbors for cooperating with our investigation and ensuring our citizens have the ability to live peacefully and without the threat of harm in their own homes.
These are arrests, not convictions.
