FERNDALE, Mich. - A man who has a history of smashing
windows to indulge his fetish for female mannequins
could draw a long prison term for his latest arrest.
Ronald A. Dotson, 39, of Detroit faces up to life in
prison if convicted of a charge of attempted breaking
and entering at a cleaning-supply company in the
Detroit suburb of Ferndale.

The potential life sentence is because prosecutors
charged him as a habitual offender. Authorities say he
has at least six convictions for breaking and entering
and a stint in state prison over the last 13 years.

Ferndale District Judge Joseph Longo ordered Dotson to
stand trial following a preliminary examination on
Thursday, The Daily Tribune of Royal Oak reported. The
judge ordered him jailed unless he posts a $15,000
bond.

Dotson was arrested Oct. 9 after police say he smashed
a window at a cleaning-supply company to get at a
female mannequin dressed in a black and white French
maid's uniform. He had been out of prison for less
than a week.

Dotson was arrested in Ferndale in July 2000 and later
convicted for breaking and entering at a women's
clothing shop to get at a mannequin in a pink dress
with bobbed hair.

Ferndale police also arrested Dotson in 1993 after
finding him in an alley behind a woman's store with
three lingerie-clad mannequins. He also has similar
convictions in Detroit and suburban Oak Park.
