When did Tucson resident Moses Antonio Shepard's chasing of a woman turn into an interstate stalking case?

According to the federal government, some point before the 18-year mark.

Shepard was sentenced yesterday to 100 months in prison, as the 19th anniversary of his one and only date with his victim comes in September.

According to federal court documents, Shepard followed the woman back-and-forth across the country since getting rejected for a second date in New York in the early '90s.

Daytona Johnson

Believe it or not, living with two ex-boyfriends at the same time didn't work out well for Phoenix woman Daytona Johnson.

After punching one ex-boyfriend/baby-daddy, then throwing a can of Febreeze at her other ex-boyfriend/baby-daddy -- and later slicing his throat with a meat cleaver -- Johnson's getting a trip to prison.

Johnson was sentenced today to five years in prison, after pleading guilty to one count of aggravated assault, while the five other charges were dropped as part of a plea agreement.

According to court documents previously obtained by New Times, Johnson -- who lived in her Phoenix home with the two ex-boyfriends and children fathered by each of the men -- got into an argument with one of the men at the house back in September.

While Johnson was arguing with one of her exes, Chad Grubbs, Johnson's other live-in ex-boyfriend, Dominick Glarruisso, entered the room and asked Johnson to give him his cell phone, which she refused to do.

Jesse Perkins wasn't too hip to a Valentine's Day card for his girlfriend -- he allegedly shot her in the head.

​Here's a Valentine's Day gift Jesse Perkins' girlfriend will never forget -- the bullet police say he shot into her forehead yesterday.

According to court documents obtained by New Times, Perkins, 21, was talking to his girlfriend at their Peoria home about "issues they were having," including how he was planning to turn himself in on an arrest warrant.

Perkins decided that was the time to start cleaning his gun, a process which apparently called for Perkins to get a bag of bullets out of his closet.

Sure enough, while sitting on the bed with the gun and his girlfriend about two feet in front of him, police say the .22-caliber handgun went off and the bullet hit the woman in the forehead.

According to court records obtained by New Times, Glendale police were called to an apartment in the 6800 block of North 67th Avenue about 10:15 Monday night after neighbors reported hearing gunshots coming from the apartment.

​Say what you will about 47-year-old Moses Antonio Shepard, but at least he's persistent -- he was recently convicted of stalking a New York woman...for the last 18 years.

Shepard was convicted last week of two counts of interstate stalking for stalking the same woman for nearly two decades, the U.S. Attorney's Office announced this afternoon.

According to the feds, Shepard met the victim at a running club in New York City in 1992. As we mentioned, he then spent the next 18 years stalking her -- despite her repeatedly telling him to leave her alone.

The stalking included emails, phone calls, letters, and other unwanted communications.

Fred Knadler

​Fred Knadler, the owner of Phoenix-based Arizona Shower Door, is looking at a pretty pricey divorce from his wife of 17 years. So, police say, he concocted a scheme to make her "go away."

Things didn't quite work out as planned -- a man he enlisted to help carry out the alleged murderous plot told police what Knadler was up to.

Knadler, 74, now faces a conspiracy charge.

According to court records obtained by New Times, on Saturday, Knadler contacted one of his employees and told him he wanted to meet with him about an "issue" that could potentially make him some money.

The employee later told police he had "strange feeling" that Knadler was going to ask him to kill his wife, Libby Knadler, so he brought a tape recorder with him to the meeting.

Proud killer Paul Giovante Jones

​If you happen to run into the parents of accused murderer Paul Giovante Jones, do him a favor and let them know he's a killer and he's "proud of it."

That's the message Jones, 26, asked Scottsdale police to relay to his parents after he fatally shot his boyfriend, Colton Scharge, yesterday afternoon after discovering Scharge had sex with his best friend.

Additionally, Jones says he's killed before -- three times, actually.

About 5 p.m. yesterday, police were called to the Scottsdale apartment Jones and Scharge share with two other men. One of the roommates told dispatchers Jones had just shot Scharge in the head with a shotgun after the two had been arguing.

The caller also told police that he had used his own handcuffs to detain Jones after the shooting.

Julie Kuhns

​Julie Kuhns' boyfriend might have some explaining to do...to his wife.

Kuhns, 45, was arrested Monday after admitting to police that she drank a third of a bottle of vodka before "accidentally" shooting her boyfriend in the chest.

Her boyfriend, it turns out, is married to another woman.

According to court documents obtained by New Times, the unidentified boyfriend and Kuhns have been seeing each other romantically for about two years. During that time, the couple has had numerous fights, and police note that Kuhns has a history of domestic violence and jealousy issues when it comes to her married amore.

On Monday morning, about 11:30, Kuhns drank what she later told police was about a third of a "12-inch-tall" bottle of vodka before her boyfriend showed up at her Scottsdale home, as he does everyday, according to Kuhns.

Eric Coulter

​Eric Coulter, 18, fatally shot his former girlfriend in the face early Saturday morning. According to Coulter, it was an accident, which police find highly unlikely for a number of reasons.

For starters, his explanation of how the gun "accidentally" went off makes no sense. Then there's the fact that the victim, 19-year-old Monique Cota, had recently broken off the nearly three-year relationship and had since gotten engaged to another man. Not to mention, the two have a history of beating each other up.

According to court douments obtained by New Times, Cota was in Coulter's bedroom in his parents' home at 622 North Mckemy Avenue in Chandler about 1:10 a.m. Saturday, where Coulter allegedly shot her in the face.
