E.Z Emerson

29-year-old Casimy St. Phard had a domestic incident with his pregnant girlfriend, Silfanise Julmeus, at their Brink Haven Apartment on September 10th. When officers arrived, they spoke with St. Phard, who stated that Julmeus was mad at him for talking to another girl. St. Phard then said that she threw hot water on him because of this. However, he only had a burn on his left arm and not anywhere else on his body, inconsistent with being splashed with hot water from a pot.

Officers then spoke with Julmeus, who told the police that she and St. Phard were arguing about paying a bill. She added that while she was cooking noodles on the stove, St. Phard came up from behind her and strangled her, causing her to fall to the floor. Julmeus said that St. Phard then poured the boiling water from the noodles on her and kicked her in the stomach five times. Julmeus added that he had always been mad about how she would not get an abortion. She stated that St. Phard had told her before that he would kill her and the baby if she did not get an abortion. After this, Julmeus was transported to Vanderbilt Hospital for a welfare check of her and her unborn baby. St. Phard was taken into custody for two counts of aggravated assault.

E.Z Emerson

60-year-old James Baker sexually threatened Katherina Wrather with a baton at his East Old Hickory Boulevard apartment on July 8th. Wrather told responding officers she was hanging out with her friend, Lucas McClain, and his “street dad,” Baker, who looks after him. Then, she stated they went out to get a dog that one of their friends found with Wrather’s girlfriend, Jenna Brown. They all went to a WeGo station for a bus they were taking when Baker decided he did not want to hang out with Brown anymore since he thought she was annoying. After this, Baker, McClain, and Wrather got onto the bus and went to Baker’s apartment. Wrather slept in the room nearest the door and woke up to Baker lying next to her, confessing his love to her.  Wrather said Baker told her how happy she made him, but she did not share the same interest because he was too old. Then, when she tried to leave, Baker stated she could not go because she did not have a bus pass anymore since she lost it and that he would be her transportation going further. Wrather said that she texted Brown and had her come up with a story about one of her family members being in the hospital so she could leave. Baker told her she could go but that he would be coming with her and that they’d leave on his time, not hers. Then, Wrather said Baker pulled out a small baton, tapped her leg lightly, and threatened to use it as a whip for punishment, putting her in fear of bodily harm. Officers spoke with McClain, who corroborated Wrather’s statements, adding that he was “just there so nothing got too intense.” After this, the police observed messages between Brown and Wrather about Baker’s past actions of undressing women in their sleep and how Brown saw Baker cornering her to separate her from Wrather. Baker was then taken into custody for kidnapping.
