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.

Why didn't he just buy some mannequins?

Cause he's a dummy.

Has anyone seen a programme on those life size rubber dolls you can get? With working "bits" and so on. Not the blow up kind, these are pretty realistic dolls. These blokes live with them, talk to them and have "relationships" with them too. The company that makes them sells loads (allegedly).

Rather spooky and REALLY not right.

They actually make those high end blow up dolls(sorry that's how I think of them) for women too. I agree with the ick factor, just a bit too creepy for me.

@ Jenn, couldn't help it.

Yeah, they have a promotional video that shows 3 ladies having 'fun' with this male doll. I think they cost about $3,000.

I suppose if women buy dildos this is nothing more than an upscale version for those who've got the money to blow.

Pun intended?

Maybe his mother abandoned him when he was small, right in front of a display window full of mannequins. All he wants is his mommy?

It must feature a mechanized pelvic thrust feature, with an optional remote to control speed and depth.
