How Man Despite Being Busted & Handcuffed Proposed To His Girlfriend

For many people, a handcuffed proposal might not be ideal. But for an Oklahoma couple, it was perfect. They were showing the world that through thick and thin, they would stay together.

Nothing was going to stop Brandon Thompson from getting down on one knee and popping the question to his girlfriend, Leandria Keith. The moment was captured on one of the Police officer’s body cameras.

According to CNN report, while been arrested at his Muskogee home in Oklahoma on July 4 which was also his birthday, he made an odd request to the Police. He wanted to propose to his girlfriend.

The family was celebrating Thompson’s birthday and Independence Day -which fall on the same day- in their front yard when the police officers showed up. One of the Officer, Bob Lynch had seen Thompson earlier in the day and recognized him from the several felony warrants out for his arrest, so he followed him to the home.

The wanted Oklahoma man was arrested for six felony counts, including burglary and firearm possession.

The video captured the groom asking the police officers if he could do something and after the officers gave him the permission to, he asked his mum to help him get his ring so he could propose to his girlfriend. He immediately went on his knees to propose to his girlfriend who was standing opposite him.

The excited bride-to-be told CNN that she knew she was going to accept his proposal because their love was unconditional. She said:

“I knew I was gonna say yes. Like, I love him a lot. We go through our ups and downs. I guess it’s like unconditional love, you know? It feels very amazing to be engaged.”

The couple plans to get married once they have dealt with Thompson’s legal troubles. Muskogee Police Department spokesman, Lincoln Anderson, has said they are hopeful that the 35-year-old would get his life together after his commitment to his wife-to-be and his future children. The police spokes man said:

“Maybe by him taking this step to propose to her, so they can get married, he can take a step to getting his life together and putting these warrants behind him and improving the life of his kids and his future wife.”

Thompson said he has been doing a lot to turn his life around. He has been coaching a peewee football team, which gives him an opportunity to give back to the community. He said so many young kids grow up without fathers and don’t have the correct type of guidance and he did not want that for his kids.

“I’ve been down that road before. I don’t want them to make the same mistakes I’ve made. I didn’t want to part ways with her not showing exactly how I feel for her. I want her to be my wife for the rest of my life,” Thompson told CNN.
