28-year-old Melvin Houston was taken into custody for two counts of unlawful exposure. Houston had taken consensual videos with a female during past sexual encounters. She reported that they agreed that the footage would remain private, but on August 30th, 2023, Mychael Carney, her boyfriend, received two of those videos from a number later identified as Houston’s. He was taken into custody on May 15th for the occurrence.
21-year-old Katelynn Fencl had a domestic altercation with her ex-boyfriend, Melvin Houston, in the parking lot of Iglesia Casa Del Alfarero around 3 p.m. on May 5th. When officers arrived, they spoke with Houston, who stated that earlier today, he was driving with Fencl when an argument ensued because she had narcotics with her. Houston said he was trying to pull over to let her out when she grabbed his right arm while he drove, leaving multiple abrasions. Then, he said he pulled into the Iglesia Casa Del Alfarero parking lot and started recording the incident on his phone. Fencl then poured multiple drinks over the front of his vehicle, causing damage, before opening a bottle of orange juice and pouring it inside his car. Houston added that she then grabbed a bottle of anti-freeze, poured it on him, and threw it at him after emptying it. Houston said she then chased him around in the parking lot while swinging her hands at him, grabbed his $4,800 camera from the backseat, and fled. Officers reviewed the footage and confirmed his statement. Fencl was then taken into custody for domestic assault, theft, and vandalism on May 8th.
