A driver from Shawnee facing a felony count and a misdemeanor charge following a two-vehicle personal injury traffic collision at U.S. 177 and Highway 66 near Wellston has entered a blind no contest plea and her sentencing has been scheduled.
Formal charges of DUI-Great Bodily injury and failure to stop for yield sign were filed July 15, 2024 against Tymber Nannette Hall, 34.
In April of 2025, she waived her preliminary hearing. Appearing for her arraignment before District Judge Sarah Bridge, she pleaded innocent. Judge Bridge set her case for the felony disposition docket at 9 a.m. Aug. 19, 2025.
At that time, again appearing before Judge Bridge, she entered a blind no contest plea on both counts. The plea was received. By agreement of all parties or bond granted, the judge set her sentencing for 1:30 p.m. Dec. 2, 2025.
She also faces a felony count of prisoner placing fluid on government employee.
That case is set for the same time as the other two. Her bond was set at $3,000. She made her initial appearance July 18. before Special Judge Emily Mueller who ordered her to return to court with an attorney on Sep. 26.
The felony DUI count accuses Hall on July 7, 2024 of causing an accident at U.S. 177 and Highway 66 in which C.A. and S.A. suffered head injuries while the defendant was driving/operating a 2011 Blue Ford Expedition automobile and was under the influence of an intoxicating substance that made her incapable of safely driving a motor vehicle.
The misdemeanor charges her on the same day of failing to obey the instructions of an official traffic control sign/device that said stop at the intersection of U.S. 177 and Highway 66.
Hall also faces another felony, prisoner placing body fluid on government employee. That charge was filed in Lincoln County District Court on July 10, three days after she had been placed in the Lincoln County Jail in Chandler.
Her court appearance on that count was also July 18. Her preliminary hearing in that case is also set for 1:30 p.m. Apr. 10.
On that felony she is accused on July 8, 2024 of spitting saliva on Athanasius Penney while he was performing his duties as an employee of the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office.
State Trooper Caleb Scott, who was dispatched to the scene of the traffic collision that Sunday afternoon and investigated the injury crash, stated in a probable cause affidavit that as he arrived he noticed a blue SUV that had departed the roadway and went through a barbed wire fence into a grass field.
Scott said he also observed a black pickup that had heavy damage to the rear of the vehicle. Witnesses advised him the occupants of that pickup truck had been transported to OU Medical Center by ground ambulance prior to his arrival.
A couple and their infant son were treated at OU Medical Center for their injuries, Scott said.
He spoke to two witnesses who informed him they had called 911 prior to the collision to report the SUV had been driving erratically at a high rate of speed.
They told him the driver of the SUV blew through the stop sign and struck another pickup in the rear that was northbound.
He states in the affidavit that Hall, driver of the SUV, was being looked over by medical staff and once that was done, he brought her back to his patrol unit where she sat inside.
Scott said he attempted to do standardized field tests on Hall but due to her leg injury she could not stand.
Hall reportedly first told the trooper she wanted to go by ambulance to the hospital, but a little bit later told him she was fine and not hurt at all.
Scott placed Hall under custodial arrest for driving while under the influence and other charges and read her the implied consent test request and she told him she would take it.
