Deputies Bust Driver In Stolen Lexus
January 23, 2011
Escambia County Sheriff’s deputies in Century were quickly able to spot a stolen car Saturday morning and arrest the driver.
Just before noon, deputies in the Century area were notified that a stolen Lexus was last seen on Highway 29 in the Nine Mile Road area headed north. A short time later, deputies stopped the vehicle on Highway 29 near Alger Road.
The driver, 34-year old Morris M. Parker of Pensacola, was taken into custody without incident and booked into the Escambia County Jail on a felony vehicle theft charge, and misdemeanor charges of driving with a suspended or revoked driver’s license, and failure to appear in an outstanding suspended driver’s license court case from 1996. His bond was set at $7,100.

I was just walking down the road and I saw this nice looking Lexus. I thought to myself, I would love to have a car like that I wonder if they will sell it to me. I looked inside and low and behold I saw the keys in the ignition. I said “well I better test drive it first before I make an offer………dopey dopey dopey doo……
Isn’t looking to the left a sign of not telling the truth!……..(see photo above).
Bond ??? for a guy like this…he will skip out when he gets loose…look at his past…they should lock him up…look at his picture…just stare at him for a few moments and tell us what you think about him..use your instinct….
I really appreciate William keeping us up to date. I live in Atmore and hear sirens several times a night usually. The local paper doesn’t cover crime too well so I never know anything about goings-on here unless William writes it up. I check here every day to at least see what’s going on in my old stomping grounds.
Who drew the circle around his mouth? That’s just mean. LOL:-)
JUST WONDERING— ONE REASON IS WE HEAR MORE ABOUT IT IS BECAUSE WILLIAM IS ON TOP OF EVERYTHING THAT’S GOING ON.
The “do-gooders” ( ACLU for one ), whether up front or through the back door, have had a BIG influence on punishments for criminals that are handed out now-a-days. Organizations such as these may have started out as a good thing but now seems to only worry about the rights of the thugs and not the victims.
I’m interested in why people do such horrible things that I hear about in the news – but I do not think we should make their punishment easy because they had a bad childhood, or they were abandoned, or their Great Aunt, twice removed, sneezed in their face when they were six while trying to hug them.
Most prisons now-a-days offer more of a home and a ‘family’ to bond with, than the perp has ever had before. Why shouldn’t they want to go back there??
I agree with terri sanders and Dave.
@ iduno..Maybe he’s into pharmaceuticals.
The only way he would not be giving no bond or one so high that he couldn’t make it .He would have had to have drugs on him. The law has it that people feel they can kill,rape,and steal and get away with it maybe do 3 til 5 yrs. If the familys don’t push it nothing happens.It just sad the devil is so busy.
Fail to appear on a suspended license case? Do they actually think he will appear on a STOLEN VEHICLE charge? Should have been no bond for this person.
The crime gets worse,the bail gets lower,our jails and prisons and overcrowded.My suggestion? Put up some tent citites,bring back the chain gang,make prison life not so glamourous and appealing..Remember these judges who time after time set low bail.They can be put out of office sooner or later.
I agree that there seems to be a meaner spirit on display these days,however I also see that a lot of average, working class, decent people who are just plain sick and tired of the burden being placed on them by the do nothing,take what you want and live off of others class. Some otherwise very nice people who would never before have said anything bad about anybody have,I think, just reached the end of their rope.I see a quiet revolution taking place among the average joes and josephines of this land. There are millions of us who just want our way of life back,and who want protection from criminals and thugs who steal and murder and terrorize our people.In retrospect,maybe its not being mean,maybe its just saying” ENOUGH !”
@■iduno …he steals cars
wonder what he does for a living?
Do some people just want to go to prison? It seems like it.
OH and how smart is it to give a guy bail that low that already has a failure to
appear on his record. Real smart JUDGE.
see ya!
What a great guy. Some family is real proud of this man.
Time to lock him up and keep him. I don’t understand why
his bail is so low. Someone worked hard for that lexis and this guy just thought
he could have it. Then he took it out and drove without a license
and that means he has not been a responsible driver. That
means he could kill someone with a stolen lethal weapon but
the bail was set so low he could get OUT AND DO IT AGAIN.
WHY?
JUDGE why don’t YOU give him a lexis and let him go out
and run around and kill YOUR family? Guess that would make
US ALL happy cause you don’t seem to care and WE DO!
This guy is probably a druggie one way or the other too.
JUST ANOTHER UPSTANDING CITIZEN.
Is there more meaness going on now are does it just seem that way because news gets around and out quicker?
