Man With Stun Gun In YouTube Video Gets Prison Sentence

Two-Year Prison Sentence Handed Down

UPDATED: 3:59 pm CDT July 5, 2008

A 22-year-old man seen in a YouTube video with his father as they shocked each other with a stun gun has been sentenced to two years in prison.

Paul Crowell, of North Prairie, pleaded guilty to possession of an electric weapon for an incident that occurred Jan. 1.

Court documents allege Crowell stole an East Troy police officer's Taser as he sat in her squad after his vehicle was found in a ditch in East Troy.

Crowell then allegedly showed video of the incident on YouTube to a girl, who reported it to police.

Crowell's father, Paul Dupey, pleaded guilty to possession of an electric weapon. He's scheduled to be sentenced Aug. 6.
