Naked Justice: Arrested for Nudity in His Own Kitchen

You’re standing in your kitchen making coffee. You are naked, but no one else is home. It’s early in the morning and you are in the privacy of your own home. All right, so maybe you’re a little bit odd, and maybe not everyone makes coffee naked. But your house, your rules, right?

That’s probably what Virginia resident Eric Williamson was thinking last Monday morning as he made himself coffee while dressed in nothing but his birthday suit. Unfortunately for Williamson, he wasn’t quite as alone as he thought. Walking through his yard were a woman and her seven-year-old son, on their way to the son’s school. The woman — a wife of a police officer – saw Williamson’s naked torso through his window and called the cops. Williamson was arrested and charged with indecent exposure.

There are some disputed accounts of this story. It is unclear precisely what time of the morning it happened and whether or not the man moved to another window as the mother and child walked across the lawn in order to remain in their range of vision.What’s not in dispute here is that the man was in his own home and the mother and kid were on his property, walking across his grass.....

A different article about this was posted Friday or Saturday. I’m glad there is more info. This twit walked across his lawn and looked into his windows. He should sue her for peeping (yes this is a pun) into his window and for trespassing. As a police officers wife, she should know better.

No pictures, please.

Seems pretty straightforward to me - the woman and her son shouldn’t have been in the guy’s yard and they shouldn’t have been looking in his window. What’s difficult about this?

libertarian and nanny state ping.

Sadly her husband is a police officer not with no respect for the law as well as no respect for another’s privacy. The went over with his henchmen as an abuse of power stood beside this man’s bed with his fellow officers and took the man in. He should have just said, “honey I understand you felt violated. I’ll be happy to talk with you when I get home. Thanks for calling. I need to go. Love you.”

[Paved Paradise]

Why were the lady and kid walking on the guy’s grass is what I want to know. Unreal.

[GOP Poet]

Excuse the typing errors. I wrote all that with my cat lying on my hands on the keyboard as he drooled on the keys. Not bad really in the end, but to the one unknown to the touch circumstances in which I typed and posted that it was unintelligible in places. LOL

[FourPeas]

Yup, as soon as they step foot on his property all bets are off (so to speak).

Having had children next door who persisted, after numerous times being told not to do so, in walking within Three Feet of my windows on their way to the bus stop, the woman should be charged with trespassing and/or filing a false complaint and/or whatever else they can throw at her. She's a stupid woman teaching her child to be a mindless, entitled moron. (BTW, I successfully had the bus stop changed to keep the kids from walking on my lawn)

OK, there’s nudity in your kitchen and then there’s N U D I T Y in your kitchen. If I’m sittin’ in the front window enjoying my latte like that BJC pose in Esquire? I’m just sayin’.

Here's the money quote:

"A woman looks in on a naked man and thinks he is committing a crime. A man looks in on a naked woman and she thinks he is committing a crime. Weird how that works."

[ReneeLynn]

Oh, come on. Let’s decide if he’s guilty or not guilty.

[bgill]

Or will the police department turn this into a witch hunt and continue to pursue every angle so as to save face for making such a big deal over it in the first place?

He's done for. Even if charges are dropped, the woman is a cop's wife so hubby and his buddies will go after this guy if he so much as thinks of jaywalking.

I'd have the woman arrested for trespassing and window peeping and any laws about having a minor with her during a crime. Throw the kid in juvie just for good measure.

[BarbM]

I hear you. I like to run neked from my bedroom to the kitchen for a cup of coffee. Wouldn't you know it, my neighbor is always out smoking and looking at my condo. What? should I stop getting coffee?

[ditto h]

When I was young, there used to be a phrase.. tall fences make good neighbors. This is a good example of that. People wonder why others are not out helping their neighbors. I rest my case!

[Leonard210]

Well, if you read the article, you would be entitled to call the cops on HIM. :-)

And BTW, I expect you’ll be getting a lot of email about prospective new neighbors after this post :-D

In my intro to law class my Professor posed us this legal question:

There is a man and a woman in this story. One is exercising in front of their window naked. The other is standing on the public sidewalk looking into the window. A police officer pulls up and sees the scene. Who does he arrest?

Answer:

The man.

"I've seen too much!"

[ElayneJ]

Disturbing to see law enforcement officials acting like this.
