A Bryan County man’s decision to post a 40-minute rant about his ex-wife on YouTube doesn’t constitute stalking, the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals ruled.
In an order released Thursday, the state’s high court for criminal matters ordered the case against Lon Brandon Meeks, 45, dismissed.

Meeks entered prison on July 15, 2025, and was released to supervision on May 11, according to the Oklahoma Department of Corrections.
“It does not necessarily follow, however, that the offending post in this case was directed toward Meeks’ ex-wife, and this case illustrates that difference.”
