So would he know what to do with a real woman? This is the first time I have ever read about something like this...
PONTIAC, Mich. (AP) - A man who acknowledged a sexual fetish for female-shaped mannequins was sentenced Thursday to more than a year in prison after repeatedly breaking into storefront windows.
Ronald Dotson, 39, of Detroit, was sentenced to 18 months to 30 years on charges of breaking and entering and being a habitual criminal.
He was arrested in October after police in the Detroit suburb of Royal Oak spotted him near a smashed storefront window containing a mannequin wearing a French maid outfit.
The arrest came less than a week after he had been paroled for his sixth breaking-and-entering conviction in 13 years.
Some of the previous cases also involved mannequins. Police once found him in an alley behind a women's clothing store with three mannequins dressed in lingerie.
"I've never been able to take care of myself," Dotson told Judge Denise Langford Morris at sentencing.
Morris acknowledged that Dotson had never assaulted a person but said his behaviour "strikes fear in the community."

Why couldn't his relatives chip in and buy him is own mannequin? Of course, for this guy, it's not about the mannequin so much as it is about the thrill of the crime. I wonder if "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" plays as he runs from the store with his latest acquisition.

This reminds me of a book I read when I was a kid. This girl stole a mannequin. This guy needs help.

The guy's got a kinky streak, but it's not why he was arrested. His compulsion drove him to commit the crimes, but he was sentenced for breaking and entering and being a habitual criminal. He could have been driven by a love of chocolate or money or anything else and the story would never have even made it to the local news, much less the Associated Press.

you can usually get a manequin cheap on ebay. I owned one for a while. she was a vampire for halloween. she went to a dance at my friends school where she fell and broke her hands.
then she became clutter and i gave her away. this guy could have had her. she was easy. LOL the plastic slut!
why didn't he seek professional help? why did he have to break in to stores to fondle the plastic girls? why didnt he go to a big department store and work in the display dept?
does his fetish include statuettes of greek godesses made of marble? was his mother made of plastic? (bottle fed)
