Murdock Police Report Details Alleged Act
By Nolan Clay and Augie Frost/Staff Writers, The Oklahoman ~ A crying woman told police Oklahoma City attorney Dan Murdock got her alone at Remington Park Saturday night, asked if she is a tease, then pulled down her top and bit her on the breast, police reported.
The woman said he also grabbed her by the hair, bit her neck and grabbed her outside her clothes in her genital area.
"But he didn't rape me," she told police in tears.
Murdock, 62, is general counsel of the Oklahoman Bar Association, the main state lawyers' group. In his position, he is in charge of seeking discipline from the State Supreme Court for attorneys involved in misconduct including sexual wrongdoing.
Murdock was arrested Saturday night at Remington Park on a sexual battery complaint. His attorney, Tom Riesen, said Sunday, "We deny any inappropriate action occurred."
Murdock told The Oklahoman he was hosting a wedding shower Saturday night in Suite 6 at Remington Park.
Police reported that, as he was arrested and handcuffed, he slightly shook his head and said "I can't believe this." He later asked police to call his wife.
Police today released the crime report which provides details about the accusation and arrest.
The woman, who is in her 30s, said she had talked with Murdock at the wedding shower, according to the report. She said she had been drinking wine. She said he told her he was divorced.
She said he wanted to show her his other suite and she agreed.
"Once inside the suite, she realized there was no one in there but her and" Murdock, police reported.
She told police he asked her, "Are you a tease like all the other women?" She said he then began assaulting her, blocking her path and cornering her when she said she needed to leave. She told police she asked to leave at least twice more.
Police reported she was wearing a black strapless top "making it very easy to be pulled down."
Murdock was arrested after the woman said that even though she expects her character to be questioned "that doesn't give him the right to do what he did," according to the police report.
The woman said he also grabbed her by the hair, bit her neck and grabbed her outside her clothes in her genital area.
