STILLWATER, Okla. (NBC) -- A divorced Oklahoma couple is behind bars accused of a strange crime.
The pair allegedly tried to fake the man's death to escape arrest warrants, and so he could start a new life as a woman.
The couple is now charged with false reporting of a crime.
Investigators say the pair lost custody of their children after their underage daughter caught the ex-husband having sex with a blow up doll.
Late last month Heather Davis told police she dropped off William Davis at his favorite fishing spot in Lake Carl Blackwell.
Just hours later Heather claimed William went missing.
When the alleged lakeside disappearance story quickly unraveled, police say Heather came clean.
According to court records, she admitted William told her he would give up his parental rights to their children and get a sex change if she assisted him in the faked death.
"He had some outstanding warrants and there was visitation issues. So the plan was to report him missing so he could get a sex change operation. Then he could return to the family with a different identity," Stillwater police Captain Randy Dickerson said.
The couple's neighbors had plenty to say about the ill-conceived custody plot.
"Why give up your kids and mess that up to help him out? I'd have told him to jump in a lake somewhere," RC Cox said.
"That's crazy and to do this for a sex change? That's a bit ridiculous," Rhonda Williams said.
Heather allegedly she went along with the plan because she wanted William out of her life.
A day after Heather's arrest William turned himself in to police.
At first he claimed he had been robbed at the lake, saying that's why he disappeared.
Later he admitted that wasn't true.
