Tulsa Man Charged with Felony Stalking in Custer County

The Penny News 968

Arapaho, OK – A Tulsa man has been charged in Custer County District Court after investigators say he used a hidden GPS device inside a child’s stuffed unicorn to track his former partner’s location.

Prosecutors filed a felony stalking charge on Nov. 3 against Taylor Don Trabert, 33.

According to a Weatherford Police Department affidavit, the child’s mother found a black “puck” with green lights sewn into a stuffed unicorn her child brought home from a June visitation. The device was identified as a LandAirSea GPS tracker.

The mother told police Trabert did not know her address because of a no-contact order. She and a family member reported seeing a dark blue, single-cab Dodge pickup—believed to be Trabert’s—drive past the home shortly after the tracker was discovered.

Officers collected the device and obtained an emergency protective order the same evening. The order and a stalking warning were served on Trabert in Tulsa later that night by the Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office.

Investigators later subpoenaed records from LandAirSea connected to the tracker’s serial number. The company returned account information in Trabert’s name, including an email and phone number, and showed the account was activated June 21.

Location data showed the device traveling from near Trabert’s Tulsa residence that afternoon, along the Turner Turnpike into Oklahoma City, and west to Weatherford, with multiple stops. The tracker’s last recorded location was at the Weatherford residence of the child’s mother, the affidavit states.

A search warrant for Trabert’s phone was issued and served Sept. 5 at his Tulsa residence. Police seized an iPhone, which was entered into evidence.

Prosecutors also filed a supplemental charge “after former conviction of a felony,” referencing a 2016 Grady County case in which Trabert was convicted of eluding police and using a vehicle in the discharge of a weapon.

With the enhancement, the charge carries a possible penalty of two years to life in prison if convicted.

Under Oklahoma law, a standard stalking conviction is punishable by up to three years in prison, a fine of up to $5,000, or both.
