An Oregon man faces a jail-term of two years for allegedly spitting on a cop after suggesting that he was infected with COVID-19. Daniel Ray Stubblefield, a 36-year-old serial offender with a history of aggravated harassment and menacing, has been battling mental health and alcohol issues. The officer however tested was negative for the virus.
“Most of the time, I can’t even remember these things when I’m told what I’ve done,” said Stubblefield to Judge Alison Emerson, during his sentencing in Deschutes County Circuit Court on Thursday. “I just wake up in jail. I’ve been trying very hard to beat this addiction. I’m sorry to all that I’ve hurt.”
