The Subtle Honesty of a Sailor

Deputies were called by the resident's son, John Jaeger, 56, who said Monday that he awoke to see a stranger urinating "all over the floor." As Jaeger got up to investigate, he heard his mother cry out, according to the Sheriff's Office.

Evelyn Whitney said she had been fast asleep when the stranger climbed into bed with her.

She screamed and asked him what he was doing, according to the sheriff's report. Pierson answered, "passing out."
...
An intoxicated sailor who walked into the wrong apartment in Bremerton, urinated on the floor and then climbed into bed with an 80-year-old woman probably won't face criminal charges, according to the Kitsap County Sheriff's Office.
...
he incident report has been forwarded to the Kitsap County Prosecutor's Office, but Wilson said it's unlikely Pierson would face criminal charges.

The apartment that Pierson had been visiting and Whitney's apartment look alike and Whitney's door was unlocked, he said. The young man's actions were "drunken stupidity," but they don't appear to meet the elements of a crime, Wilson said.
...
Pierson is stationed at Naval Base Kitsap — Bangor.
If he were USAF, I would ask, "OK, fine, but was he wearing his reflective belt?"

Hat tip SP.

Except for the 80 y/o woman part, I had a night like that in Nuclear Power School.

Don't be that guy.  I think I saw mention of this story on Bubblehead's blog.

My brother's guiding philosophy is pertinent here. 

"Ya get drunk, ya do sh*t."

:-D

I've gotta think the hangover he must have had the next day was almost punishment enough.

I do not think he will escape XOI, and if it stops there, he was born under a most fortunate star.

Mmmm, volunteer self help swing shift labor, in order gain remedial intruction and supervised practice in bladder control for extended periods and practice maintaining sobriety.

Lotsa white rocks and spitshined decks. XO's love that sort of thing.

Yea, she wasn't a day over 78, and far friendlier.

He's lucky to be alive.  Wandering into someone's home and climbing into bed with their mother can get you killed in some parts.

Events like this are why the SJA and I used to start out each day reading the "police blotter" in the Bremerton "Sun".  At least he isn't from the NIMITZ.

Where do we get such men?
