A Bridgeton man has been sentenced to a year in jail for making 34 obscene phone calls to women real estate agents. Investigators say Donald Patterson masturbated in a hospital waiting room while he looked at pictures of the women in their real-estate ads and left sexual messages on their answering machines. One of the messages was seven minutes long. Patterson is a former optometrist who lost his state license a decade ago after admitting he made obscene calls to some of his patients.
