Boyfriend pleads not guilty in toilet-seat case
Criminal Law
The western Kansas man whose girlfriend became stuck to a toilet during a two-year stay in their bathroom appeared in court Wednesday in separate cases.
Ness County prosecutors said Kory McFarren pleaded not guilty Wednesday to a misdemeanor charge of mistreatment of a dependent adult. The charge stemmed from police in February discovering McFarren’s girlfriend, Pam Babcock, physically stuck to the toilet.
McFarren said Babcock had refused to come out of the bathroom for two years. Medical personnel estimated she spent at least a month on the toilet. Babcock remains in a Wichita hospital. McFarren’s pretrial hearing is June 13.
McFarren also had his first appearance on a felony charge of lewd and lascivious behavior. He was arrested in March for allegedly exposing himself to a neighbor who was a minor.
