A University of Oklahoma student has been charged with violation of the Oklahoma Computer Crimes Act for allegedly hacking into and causing havoc with other students’ computer accounts.

Jose Antonio Roman, 19, was charged Tuesday in Cleveland County District Court.

Roman is accused of using his laptop computer to scan the local OU subnet at Walker Tower from his dorm room. Roman allegedly used data acquired to obtain user names and passwords to other students’ OU e-mail and Facebook accounts. Investigators said he changed other students’ passwords, locking them out of their accounts. In one case, Roman allegedly replaced a woman’s photo with a graphic described as “the laughing man.”

In court documents filed Tuesday, the names of five victims are listed.

Roman also conducted ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) poisoning attacks on six dates in November and five dates in December, investigators said. ARP poisoning is a technique used to attack an Ethernet network and modify or stop traffic altogether.

Other felonies filed Tuesday include:

• Ronald Art Mitchusson, 40, Mangum, knowingly concealing stolen property;

• Nicholas Eugene Orrie Rockholt, 18, Norman, first degree burglary; knowingly concealing stolen property; false declaration of ownership in a pawn;

• Inez Elizabeth Alvarado, 18, Oklahoma City, unlawful possession of a controlled dangerous drug;

• Ryan Christopher Finchum, 22, Norman, false declaration of ownership in a pawn;

• Lendell Dale Pickett, Norman 45, Norman, second-degree burglary;

• Natile Nicole Kelley, 18, Norman, second-degree burglary.

• Wayne Arnold Heil, 29, Yukon; domestic abuse;

• Sean Casey Beaman, 24, Norman, knowingly concealing stolen property.
