Virginia Man Charged With Indecent Exposure After Making Coffee Naked in Kitchen
A Springfield man is facing indecent exposure charges after police say he stood naked inside his home as a 7-year-old boy and his mother walked by.
Twenty-nine-year-old Eric Williamson denies any wrongdoing and says any exposure was accidental.
"Yes, I wasn't wearing any clothes but I was alone, in my own home and just got out of bed. It was dark and I had no idea anyone was outside looking in at me," Williamson told MyFoxDC.com in his defense. "I'm a loving dad — any of my friends would tell you that," Williamson said. "There is not a chance on this planet I would ever, ever do anything like that to a kid."
But Fairfax County Police see it differently. Spokeswoman Mary Ann Jennings said the woman and her son first saw Williamson standing naked inside his doorway as they walked along a path outside his home. Police say Williamson then followed the two from inside his home and exposed himself again through a large front window.

It's going to be difficult to prove it was intentional, and I suppose the guy could clam they were "peeping toms". Should be interesting to see how this turns out.

There was a phone interview with this guy on Shep Smith yesterday....
There was videotape of the inside of this house, showing exactly where he was in his house. He came down the stairs, went into the kitchen, got a cup of coffee and went back up the stairs and crawled back into bed.
Fell back asleep and the next thing he knew several cops were in his bedroom!
They searched his house, arrested him, took him to jail, and even went to his place of work.
It was 5:30 in the morning!!! And the woman was walking her dog in his yard.
I can't tell you how many times I have "streaked" through my house from my bathroom to the laundry room on the opposite end of the house....and passed a whole bunch of windows doing it.
What happened to "your home is your castle"?
If found guilty...he will have to register as a sex offender.
I hope he sues the woman, and the police!!

This is one circumstance, I think the guy should get a lawyer and sue everybody he possibly can!
When you add in that the police even went to the guy's work....geesh o Pete!
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!!!!

Let's even assume the worst. Let's say this guy really is an exhibitionist and was exposing himself on purpose. I don't believe it for one second, but let's pretend.
So?
He's in his own home, on his own property. He wasn't out in public swinging his frank and beans around for all to see. He was in his kitchen at 5:30AM, and some half-a-moron happened to be near or on his property, staring into his house as he got a cup of coffee in the nude.
The peeping lady is the only one showing indecency here, and the police department is liable for a huge settlement for the way they handled this. I know, I know, scared stupid woman crying about being scarred for life. It really tugs on the ol' heartstrings, doesn't it? This guy did nothing wrong, even if he was pulling one of these (go to 0:20):

Edit: typo

had the woman and her son NOT been trespassing, they would have never noticed what he did inside his house. I feel that she should be charged with trespass, but that charge won't be as nearly as life influencing as the charges against him. The DA, if they had any sense of "right and wrong", should drop the charges against this guy.

Yeah, I can see it now.
Prosecuting attorney: "Mrs. Smith, do you recognize that penis? If you do, please point it out to the jury."
[Mrs. Smith points to the penis sitting at the defendant's table.]
Prosecuting attorney: "Let the record show that the witness pointed out the defendant."
Prosecuting attorney to the Witness: "Mrs. Smith, how is it you can be sure that this is the penis you saw?"
Mrs. Smith: "Well, I can be sure because of the size of the head. It was ENORMOUS! My son was absolutely FLOORED!! He asked me, 'Mom, am I gonna get a penis that big when I grow up?' And I told him, 'I don't know, son. That penis is SO BIG it might get you in trouble one day!'
And with that we walked home and phoned the police. He was TRAUMATIZED!"
:lmao: :rotf:

She traumatized him by giving him a sense of inadequacy....

But it's ok to ride naked on a float through the middle of San Francisco, New Orleans, and a few other towns, in front of children, while homo sex is being simulated or actually performed?

It's different. Just ask them... :thatsright:
I've been at Fantasy Fest in Key West several times....and been totally shocked at the number of parents that bring their kids to the parade.
One year, it seemed there were an awful lot of kids. I was standing near a police officer and asked him about it. He said it was legal. It was a "permitted" parade on a public street...open to the public. If parents wanted to bring their kids, the police couldn't do anything about it.

This bothers me as I personally know people that have no shades or curtains on the back of their home that faces woods.
With new technology the new homes windows are so air tight there is no need to use them.
The whole point of living in buildings is the expection of privacy and comfort.
I watched a news reporter take his camera to the home and film what could be see through the window at that time of day. To see the kitchen with the light on and anyone in it, the camera man had to get up within 6 inches of the window and crouch down to get his shot.
What on earth was this woman doing out in the dark walking her dog with a child peeping in windows in the first place.?
Was she creepy crawling to check out for her friends places with something to steal?
Did she think she had been spotted and called the cops to get the jump in case he reported her first.?
Good grief, if it was anyone else, would we get an accidental glimpse of someone naked in their own home not have felt embarrassed at the sight and feel a twinge of guilt at invading the privacy of that person.?
911-what is the emergency.?
I see naked people in their own homes.
How do you see them.?
I look in their windows after dark.
Oh the horror of it all, a MAN naked as a jay bird in his kitchen drinking coffee, when I pointed him out to my child they became traumatised at the sight, they now wake up with nightmares about naked men drinking coffee.
My question is why the police even after hearing the details she gave bother to do more then give him a phone call and warn him to close his shades as there were people tresspassing on his property after dark and watching his every move.
I usually stick up for our police, in this case I would have to question just how boring and slow crime is in their town.
Another reason to keep a big dog, the neighbors may be more dangerous to us then street crime.
As a protest I shall close the curtains hike up the heat and do my house work wearing only my socks and a smile. Anyone that peeps through the window in a small space between the curtains will meet my Rottie and my Peace Maker. No law about making a citizens arrest in the nude that I know of.
Yup, stuff like this does in fact make me crazy, what if this were my son ---carrears can be ruined by such foolishness.
BTW the unfortunate Man did make a huge mistake, he talked to the police and as been pointed out he opened a can of worms.

It is very likely that this man's life will be screwed if the DA pursues charges and IF the man is convicted, he will be labelled as a sex offender. That, in itself, can wreck a person's life, regardless of how insignificant the offense was (urinating in public could make one a sex offender in many States). The bigger fact is that this lady and her son WERE trespassing. Let's hope that these charges get dismissed and the lady gets reprimanded.
I suppose that the answer is to post "No Trespassing" signs about one's property. IMO, those are tacky and should not be needed, but in today's world.....

Sigh...
I'm 28 years old and sitting here thinking, "what has the world come to?" As vesta pointed out, not too long ago, if one were to by happenstance see a naked person in their own home, if one were the decent sort, one would be flushed with embarrassment over acting like a Peeping Tom, even if by accident.
And yet, here we are actually discussing an instance in which a man was arrested, his home and office searched, because he was naked in his house at 5:30AM drinking coffee and a trespassing lunatic saw, and didn't look away ashamedly.
Not to be corny, but my heart goes out to this man. Were I in his shoes, I would be jailed not for acting as I damn-well pleased in my own ****ing house, but for going on a violent crime spree in response to this outright insanity. Can you imagine how he must feel?

The more I think about this the stranger the actions of the police become.
If indeed this man drank his coffee and went back to bed to awaken to find the police in his bed room, did they have a warrent to search his home for a naked man ?
How did they get into the house in the first place, break down the door.?
Did they announce themselves as police before entering or while in the home before waking him up.
I smell a big very fat rat here. Could this be a set up to sue the police and city.?
Could one of the cops have been in on the scam making sure to violate enough laws to enable the Man to get a law suit going for any number of reasons.?
Who is the woman who complained, at that point it was a he said she said complaint.
The whole story seems all too pat to me, one of those story's that rill us up because if it happend to him it could happen to us. Almost like a Urban Legation.

I am trying to say that I cannot believe the police would have acted the way it was reported.
With the stuff going on today most anything is possible I guess but there is just something about this story that is hard to believe as told to reporters.
Then there is the question of if he has a lawyer or not. No Lawyer would allow a client to re enact anything on tape for the news, internet, and to say NOTHING to the police.
Did you follow the link for the Virginia Beach police and the Professor at law school a couple of days ago.? They admitted that they the cops can use anything you say and twist it to be found guilty.
Very odd behavior by everyone, all kinds of scenarios could be playing out here.

Maybe the woman was an illegal alien that was dropped into the guys yard by helicopter and a satellite in geosync orbit disintegrated all the cloths and curtains in the guys house so he would be seen naked and the woman would become a citizen.

No way Right, you are wrong.
This is an everyday woman who lives a couple blocks over from him. One morning at 5 AM she gets her kid out of bed, dressed and they walk the dog through the woods on a path in the dark. She sees the only house with lights on so she decides to cross their lawn as a short cut home. She kid and dog get close enough to the house to look inside and observe the homeowner going about his business in the buff.
She kid and dog freak out and she runs home to call the police. Police arrive and enter the home uninvited, arrest a man who was sleeping.-----He is charged with a sex crime.
Give me a break, I like your scenario but I think my story, as was reported is even more implausible then anything I have yet to hear.
Oxygen narcoses ---perhaps all this is his dream, he may still be in a decompress chamber----He is a Diver you Know.
-

I second that...and at 5:30 in the AM!?!
Who gets up and pulls their kid out of bed to go for a walk at 5:00 AM. :yawn:
In addition to tresspass and peeping tomage, I'd charge her with child abuse.
I suppose he will also be charged with sleeping in the nude.
I'm sure that's been made illegal now too. :whatever:
Stories like this get my blood pressure up.
