KINGSPORT, TN (WJHL) -
Three women testified against former Mount Carmel Vice-Mayor William Blakely, graphically recounting times he exposed himself while driving. News Channel 11 had the only reporter in court for Thursday's preliminary hearing in Kingsport.
"I was scared that I was gonna wreck, he was gonna cause me to wreck," witness Deborah Sturgill said.
"It seems that every victim would tell the same story. But I knew all the victims did not know each other," Kingsport Police Detective Terry Christian said.
Personal accounts in Thursday's testimonies started the same - Blakely allegedly waving to get the drivers' attention, then escalating to honking and partially crossing over into the drivers lane.
"Waving, grabbed his shirt, kind of pulled it up," witness Deanna Dykes said.
"After the waving, it turned into a lot of beeping, him grabbing his chest area, and asking me going 'please, please' (clasping hands together) with his hands, may I... show me yours," witness Kelly Street said.
Each witness testified they were fearful Blakely's driving would cause an accident.
"He was taking his hand, wetting his mouth, and masturbating," Sturgill said.
"At over 90 miles per hour, he had his penis out [the window]... he was masturbating... and that's when it got really, really bad. I wouldn't look over any more, and I wrote his tag number down on my hand, which I believe he noticed, and he exited very quickly," Street said.
Detective Terry Christian says it's Street's writing down of the license tag number that served as a catalyst for William Blakely's charges.
"It went on for so long an nobody's addressed it," Christian said, referring to the dozens of phone calls the department has received over the course of three or four years - she said, related to Blakely's behavior. Ages of the alleged victims range from 16-65.
Christian says Thursday marked a turning point, when three women, out of what's said to be many more - conquering fear and embarrassment.
"It's important to make that report because if you don't, they're gonna feel that they can continue that offense and continue victimizing more females. And that might be your best friend, your daughter, your mother, your aunt, your niece. And you need to make that report because that's what's going to eventually stop that type of behavior," Christian said.
Blakely is facing charges of indecent and reckless endangerment, and criminal attempt to commit aggravated assault with regards to the first two testimonies today. Charges for the case involving the third witness were dropped to reckless driving. Judge Toohey bound the two cases seen today over to a Sullivan County Grand Jury - scheduled for June 14.
Detective Christian tells News Channel 11 several more cases involving Blakely are getting ready to be presented to a grand jury.
Not to necessarily dispute you, but sometimes local elections are non-partisan, so they might not even know.
I wonder how he cut them off?
Maybe he has long legs or he is hung like the late John Holmes. Somebody else on the thread speculated that he might have had the cruise control on, possibly allowing him to take his food off the gas and concentrate on the perving.
One hand on the wheel and one hand on his . . . you know . . . whatever . . .
Vice Mayor
what a sick freak. reminds me of the time my girlfriend and I were in my driveway playing hopscotch and some freak pulled up to ask directions and he had a huge hot dog in his lap.
... and that’s when it got really, really bad.
No where on the web can I find background on this guy.
He must be a Democrat, because the press does not mention his party affiliation anywhere.
“Sounds like he had cruise control on.”
Ahh...I never use mine, so I didn’t think of that.
Either way, this human garbage shouldn’t be making decisions for anyone other than himself and even that should be under the microscope.
And, at the very least, he should have to register as a sex offender and be charged with exposing himself to a minor and jailed. There are many men in prison who would appreciate his enthusiasm of showing his genitals and masturbating with the fear of death mixed in.
If you hang your penis out the window while in your seat driving, you should be in porn.

Masturbating out his car window at 90 MPH? Hmmmmm.....I guess this is becoming a popular public sport-—maybe even an Olympic event? (cackle)
Read on, bloggers.
Seems the Sidwell Friends School Cuckolding Lawsuit Has Everything: Sex, Creepy PhysEd Teachers hitting on eight graders, even Bob Woodward, whose daughter attends.
The prestigious Washington school (attended by the Obama girls—tuition $34,000 per year) is involved in a lawsuit over a former employee’s affair, and it is wild.
The Washingtonian reports plaintiff Terry Newmyer is suing Sidwell and former Sidwell sex ed teacher James Huntington, alleging that the school knew that Huntington was having an affair with Newmyer’s wife, Tara Mehrbach, even as he was treating Newmyer’s daughter.
The salacious details include sex-educator Huntington wondering whether he should discuss the steamy affair with Newmyers 5-year old daughter. He emails: Do I talk about masturbating on your face or your marital situation....? Decisions, decisions, decisions.
Anthony Weiner is jealous he didn’t think of that first.
Thanks. Could be post of the day.

One heck of a cruise control
“Was he going and coming or coming and going?”
Sounds like the song “I’m Tired” from Blazing Saddles!
