A Guthrie man was handed over to the custody of the Department of Corrections after he pleaded guilty to four crimes, including second degree rape of a person under the age of 16.
Thomas Edward Hubbard, 33, pleaded guilty in front of Logan County District Judge Phillip Corely Friday morning. In return, Hubbard was sentenced to 15 years with 10 of those years suspended.
He must also register as a sex offender.
Hubbard was arrested on April 11 after being questioned by the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigations. Hubbard admitted to the agents that “he was in bad situation”.
Hubbard first stated that he did not have any sexual contact with a female minor because he knew it was “illegal”. However, later admitted to the crimes when questioned by agents.
Along with the rape charge, Hubbard pleaded guilty to lewd or indecent proposals to child under 16, requiring a child to look upon the body or private parts of another and a misdemeanor charge of breaking and entering.
OSBI agents obtained permission from one of the victims and her father to use her cell phone and her identity to text Hubbard. The text messages eventually led to Hubbard admitting the crimes.
The first victim, 15-years-old, told agents that Hubbard gave her a hickey on her stomach and rubbed her genitals outside of her under garment on April 10.
The second victim, also 15-years-old, told agents Hubbard lowered his pants exposing himself and then position himself behind the 15-year-old minor and had sexual contact on the night of April 10.
A third victim, a 16-year-old, told agents that her and the second victim were kissing on the bed when Hubbard committed two sex acts on her in front of the second victim sometime between March 30 and April 6.
Hubbard told agents while questioning, “it was hard to resist temptation. I’m older then them and I know better.”
In February, Hubbard was arrested for breaking into a co-workers home on East Springer through a window. Upon arrival of a police officer, Hubbard was found sleeping on the couch with an odor of alcohol. Earlier in the day he was sent home from work after his co-worker said he was drinking all day.
Hubbard was sentence to one year in the Logan County Jail for the misdemeanor.
Fifteen years with 10 suspended for rape and sexual abuse of three under age girls……..amazing!!
I want to know why those young girls were hanging out with him and why 2of the girls were kissing each other. I mean yeah what he did was wrong but when you have little 15 & 16 year olds prancing around in the things they wear and making out in front of you i think they were asking for his “attention” where we’re the parents?
Okay, for one. Nobody was making out. For two, he just showed up, for three he had aknife., and four the mother was home. And what do you want me to do scream so i.can get. Stabbed. The news always turns things. Around. You dont know me or my friends.. or. The mother so you shouldnt say things if you dont actually know what happened.. Thank you very much. And he got 10 Years suspended because I did not want to sit in a court room and look him in the eyes why. I tellthe World What he did to me…..
