Cantonment Man Charged With Battery On His Elderly Mother

June 15, 2017

A Cantonment man has been charged with battery on his elderly mother after an argument about her iPhone.

William Ladon Stacey, 56, was charged with first degree felony battery on a person 65-year of age of older.

Stacey’s 77-year old mother told deputies that she had just her returned from the store when she noticed that her iPhone was missing from her purse. She asked Stacey about the phone, starting an argument, she said.

She said Stacey pushed her, causing her to fall off a porch and onto the ground. She landed on her left thumb, breaking it, and hitting her head causing a small cut.  She was evaluated and treated by Escambia County EMS.

William Stacey remained in the Escambia County Jail Thursday with bond set at $50,000.

    You mean alcohol is not a drug?

    He’s not 6′3″, maybe 5′10″ or 5′11″, but that is beside the point. It’s alcohol, not drugs, with this one. Drunk every day for years

    I want to slap that smile off his face. My son ever tried that, we would both be in the emergency room. Him for pain, and me to get my foot out of his butt.

    Another poor misunderstood disturbed victim of society.
    56 years old and still at home!!!!! What a country we live in
    Hopefully he will get beat up in jail. Hopefully a long jail sentence too.

    Look at that smile. What a piece of junk this one is. I’m sure he was living with Mom and she was probably paying his way. Mom please don’t let him come back. It’s time to cut ties with this one. Hopefully he will be put away for a while.
