One of Williamson's housemates testified that Williamson had been nude well before dawn.

Housemate(s)? So he shares the house with others and still prances around nude in front of them? Is this a nudist colony?

Young argued that neither prong had been met.

Exhibitionist with two prongs. heh-heh heh-heh-heh heh-heh

Williamson’s house is a ‘nudist colony’.

If I were to walk by a woman’s house and she were

Folks still learn to use the subjunctive here? I thought Americans dropped it years ago. The college board certainly did for the SAT tests. Long ago.

If I were to hazard a guess, it would be that many of us were spanked by the doctor much longer ago than that.

I wish that we knew more details about this entire incident; like another poster mentioned, in the original account, it was around 6 am and the naked man was getting a glass of water in the kitchen.

Frankly, I'd like to know more about the credibility of the witness. In the first story there was no teacher who drove by in a car. In the first story there was a mother starting in the door window, along with her young son.

I hope that the little boy is alright, but there are too few facts presented to make a determination ---- but in the original story it made the M-O-M out to be a kook peeping jane.

Close the curtains, pervert.

Under Virginia law, the charge requires "an obscene display or exposure" and must occur in "a public place or a place where others are present."

Thank you.

Do not adopt the knee jerk FreeRepublic response to this story. there’s waaaaay more to it than meets the eye.

Like the fact that he was naked in his CAR PORT!

So okay, maybe a car port is part of a house, technically, but a guy standing naked in a car port is not quite the same as running down the hall from bath to bedroom.

He WANTED to be seen and he got charged for it through our justice system. You’ll look like the Whoopi Goldbergs who defend roman Polanski if you defend this perv.

JPB Posted the original article.

I still maintain the woman had gone lamping, and was just getting home at that hour.

Finding this guy guilty of nudity in his own home, on the testimony of two women who were offended by his physique (or lack of) is consistent with what we've been witnessing in this country for the last several decades.

Sexual harassment accusations, which can lead to all sorts of problems for employers and employees, no longer need to be backed up with any evidence of the alleged harasser's intentions. Recent judgments instead are based solely on the victim's feelings, emotions and reaction to the alleged harassment. This has left the door open to lawsuits and complaints based on such meager evidence as "he looked at me with lust in his eye."

The same progression can be seen in "speech codes" and "non-discrimination" clauses in contracts. What was once considered dark humor is now grounds for civil--and in some cases, criminal--complaints.

I am not one to defend running around the neighborhood in the altogether, especially at this time of the year. But if a person wants to take his or her clothes off in his own home, or in his back yard for that matter, I see no reason for the law to get involved.

And if a mother and her seven-year old are offended, maybe they should look the other way. It's not like the nude guy was about to attack them.
