Winning in America: 🚨 BREAKING: FORMER OKLAHOMA DHS SUPERVISOR CHARGED WITH SIX FELONY CHILD SEX CRIME COUNTS

A former Oklahoma Department of Human Services (DHS) Child Welfare Services supervisor who oversaw cases involving vulnerable children has been arrested and charged in Oklahoma County with six felony complaints alleging lewd or indecent acts involving a child under the age of 16. Myron Lamont McKinney, 38, was arrested this week and is being held in the Oklahoma County Detention Center on a $250,000 bond, according to court records. Timeline from the Probable Cause Affidavit & Court Records According to the arrest warrant affidavit, court filings, and reporting by FOX 25: • Around April 10, a report was made to the Oklahoma Human Services Child Abuse Hotline alleging that a teenager had been sexually assaulted by a DHS employee. • An Oklahoma Human Services Assistant Deputy Director referred the allegation to the Oklahoma City Police Department for investigation. • Investigators identified the employee as Myron McKinney, who had supervised the child’s DHS case. • Court records allege the child stayed overnight at McKinney’s residence on multiple occasions between June 2020 and December 2021. During that time, the child was reportedly 13 years old, while McKinney was 33. • According to the probable cause affidavit, the child alleged McKinney required him to sleep unclothed in the same bed before sexually assaulting him. • Prosecutors further allege McKinney provided the child with toys, video games, and other gifts that the child referred to as “deals.” • The affidavit also references text messages exchanged between McKinney and the child during that period. • Court documents state that on May 22, 2026, McKinney was interviewed by the Oklahoma City Police Department. According to investigators, he acknowledged supervising the child’s DHS case and confirmed the child had stayed overnight at his residence. Court records indicate McKinney worked for Oklahoma Human Services for more than a decade as a Child Welfare supervisor before leaving the agency approximately two months ago. DHS Response Oklahoma Human Services issued the following statement: “The criminal allegations against Myron McKinney are sickening and violate the core values of Oklahoma Human Services. Upon learning of the allegations, an internal investigation was initiated, and shortly thereafter McKinney’s employment with the agency ended. Because this is an active criminal investigation, there are limitations to what can be said publicly. We will continue working with law enforcement throughout the investigation to help ensure justice is pursued.” Additional Reports & Questions We have received reports alleging that McKinney previously sexually harassed coworkers while employed by DHS and that those reports were not acted upon. Those allegations have not been independently verified. Current and former DHS employees with firsthand information regarding those allegations or the circumstances surrounding McKinney’s departure are encouraged to come forward. Donald Smolen of Smolen Law (918-777-4529) has agreed to review information provided by affected employees or alleged victims. Anonymous sources are welcome. A Question for Oklahoma Human Services One question raised by current and former DHS employees is whether McKinney was permitted to resign rather than being formally terminated. If employees facing serious allegations are allowed to resign before disciplinary proceedings are completed, critics argue it may reduce the available employment record and raise concerns about future positions involving vulnerable populations. Whether that occurred in this case has not been publicly explained. Additional transparency from DHS regarding the circumstances of McKinney’s departure could help address those questions. The criminal case is ongoing. McKinney is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court. #OklahomaDHS #ChildWelfare
