A woman in Phoenix was arrested on Easter when she couldn't get her 16-year-old son to wake up for church...

A 40-year-old woman named Sharron Dobbins from Phoenix wanted her 16-year-old son to wake up early on Sunday to go to church for Easter.  Or, as she says, quote, "I said, 'Get up!  It's Jesus's day!'"

But when he wouldn't get out of bed . . . she TASED him on the leg.

He told her he was calling the cops, and she told him, quote, "You can call the police, UPS, DPS, whoever you want to call.  Police were on the phone and I told the dispatcher, I told her, 'You need to be with Jesus right now.'"

When the cops got there, Sharron said she didn't tase her son, she just sparked the Taser to wake him up . . . but he had two marks on his leg from where she zapped him, so she was arrested.  And she spent 12 hours in jail on Easter before she got out.

She's facing a charge of child abuse with intent to cause harm.

But she thinks she'll be okay because, quote, "I don't think I did anything wrong because you're supposed to put God first."

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
