Skeletal remains found in Oklahoma lake identified as siblings missing since 2022

Outdoorsman Eddie Carper was fishing on Pine Creek Lake in southeastern Oklahoma in October despite the dangerously low water levels when he hit what he at first thought was an old boat trailer. "It is barely visible just under the surface. It might be an old flatbed truck. I couldn’t tell for sure but it has an axle & 2 wheels. Found it with my trolling motor today. A $3,200 ... mistake!" he posted on Facebook Oct. 14. Turns out it actually was a van that was submerged just off a boat ramp. Inside were the skeletal remains of a brother and sister who went missing in 2022. "I ran into it with my boat," Carper, who lives in Valliant, told The Oklahoman. "I reported it. ... I'm just glad we found them and their kin gets closure." The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation disclosed on Thursday, Nov. 5, that the skeletal remains have been identified as Timothy Woodman and his sister, Terry Woodman. Both were living in 2022 in Wright City, records show. The small town in McCurtain County is about a 30-minute drive from where their remains were found. "Both individuals were reported missing in September of 2022

Is it legal to ride in a truck bed in Oklahoma? What the law says

In some of the biggest summer movies, you'll likely see friends kicking back in the truck bed, catching the open, unsheilded wind as the driver rolls down the road. Luckily in Oklahoma, you can live that fantasy. Laws in Oklahoma and Oklahoma City protect passengers' right to travel in the bed of a truck, but not all can feel this thrill. Here's what state and local law says about traveling in the bed of a pickup truck. Is it legal to ride in the back of a pickup truck? Neither Oklahoma state law nor OKC city ordinance restricts the ability of adult passengers to be in the bed of a pickup truck, even when it's on the highway. There are 21 states that don't have a law against pickup trucks, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety , including Oklahoma. Other states have some restrictions on what age people can be when they ride in the truck bed, like Texas, which only allows individuals 18 and older. Riding in the truck bed still comes with dangers. While riding in the truck bed is legal, passengers should still practice safe travel to prevent any unwanted injuries. Oklahoma also prohibits reckless

Oklahoma landowners pack hearing to oppose 34-mile transmission line

Dozens of northeast Oklahoma landowners, ranchers and community advocates packed an Oklahoma Corporation Commission hearing Monday to voice their opposition to a proposed high-voltage transmission line, raising concerns about multigenerational family farms and potential health and wildlife consequences. The agency held a prehearing conference and public comment session on American Electric Power (AEP) Oklahoma Transmission Company Inc.’s application for a certificate of authority to construct the Northeast Oklahoma Transmission Enhancement Project (NEOTEP) West. The west segment of the project involves building a 34-mile, 345-kilovolt overhead electric transmission line through Washington and Nowata counties, connecting the existing Delaware Substation to the Oklahoma-Kansas border. The line, according to a June filing by AEP, would utilize steel poles ranging from 110 to 150 feet in height along a 150-foot-wide right-of-way corridor. NEOTEP West is part of a federally regulated, regional reliability initiative mandated by the Southwest Power Pool (SPP), the regional transmission organization covering a 14-state network. The full NEOTEP, which carries a $342 million cost, is designed to route wind energy from Kansas through northeastern Oklahoma to load centers in Missouri. It includes a planned eastern segment that runs 68 miles across Craig and Ottawa counties. More: Will Oklahoma data centers put

'The One,' starring Martin Sheen, brings Oklahoma Christmas story to the big screen

For Primetime Emmy-winning actor Martin Sheen , it was worth braving the kind of cold weather that "goes right to the bones" to travel to Oklahoma and film the inspirational Christmas movie "The One." "The first impression ... when I came on the set, I looked around, and I was the oldest guy in the universe. I couldn't even find anyone in the neighborhood as old as I was," Sheen, 86, said during a break in filming at One Set Studio in Oklahoma City. "I was amazed at how young the crews were — and how skilled they were in all these different departments. That was a revelation. I had no idea. You know, when I started, I was always the youngest guy." "The might of the theme" and the chance to play a "very disarming character" named Jefferson were vital in enticing the Golden Globe winner to make his first movie in the Sooner State. "He was very sweet, and I didn't have to kill anyone or beat anyone up or curse or do anything vulgar. That's always a plus in the movies these days," Sheen said, chuckling. "I liked that it would have, hopefully, a positive effect." 'The
