He had probably 30 seconds out there with no one around him. Long enough to cart wheel, do a little dance, and jog around before a single security guard showed up.

Almost exactly my thoughts. After watching the Youtube video the guy ran right past two yellow coated "Rent a Thugs" on the way out on the field. They walked into the picture just after he ran on the field.

Wow, topcard in this thread looks like a huge dbag. Even moreso than the streaker, which is hard to do considering he ran across a football field naked. Is there a way I can get in on that civil lawsuit? How much money are we looking at here, topcard?

3 pages about this????? the guy must have been hung like a horse or it was really cold in Greenville to get this much reaction.

All joking aside, I have a 7 year old boy and we would have probably laughed and made fun of the guy. With that said, there is a big difference in this situation between having a little boy and a little girl present. I don't know what my reaction would be if I had a little girl, so maybe I have no room to talk about it, but I would let cooler heads prevail and wait it out a couple days before pursuing sexual charges against the guy. Was it right? No, but I don't think his intention was to molest children, hell, he was probably so drunk, the last thing on his mind were the children.

Sporting events, especially at football games, you have to assume it will be like a rated R movie.

You know that's the one thing nobody has brought up..

He has been identified. He collected his bond money prior to the game therefore by his own hand admitting it was a predetermined act. He will be banned from attending ECU athletic events of all types going forward. His trial is set for early December.

He is from Raleigh. He is not and has never been a student at ECU. He went to a high school in Raleigh and attended a community college in that area.

There is some information floating around (I really can't confirm) that he did the same thing at NCSU in Raleigh, and if so he'll be considered a repeat offender, and you can find his picture sometime soon on any app that shows sexual predators living in your neighborhood. And deservedly so.

Frankly, I think his co-conspirators should share some of the legal blame. Those who ran the camera obviously knew what was going to happen. They'd be a good place to start rounding up. If this were some poor person on the street who had flashed the wives, mothers, or children of those laughing on here they'd want that person slapped in jail. No need for double standards, public nudity is against the law in NC.

How many user names does topcard have now?

ECU Police have requested that the charge be changed to a felony. That is up to the magistrate. This is far from over. I would prefer CRIMINAL charges be filed and had no interest in a Civil Trial until all he was charged with was a misdemeaner and received a small fine.

It is amazing that some of you really believe that the bad guy is me or some of the other parents? That the only way you can molest a child is through contact? If you do not believe that exposing your genitals and simulating a sex act in front of children constitutes molestation then your opinion means nothing to me and only furthers my belief that more people need to take a stand in situations like this.

If you actually saw the act in person everything in bold above applies to what he did. If he had ran naked from one end of the field to the other I would not have as big of a problem. But that is not what he did and there is plenty of video and pictures to prove it.

This is probably my last post on this thread. If you are willing to try a ruin this kids life by gathering the witch hunt and charge him with felonies just for streaking at a football game "pelvic Thrusts" and all, You have some serious issues. More serious than the stupid 21 year old that darted across the field.

I COMPLETELY disagree with that. I think he was drunk and looking his 15 seconds of fame, probably dared/encouraged by his friends.

But you have your opinion and I have mine.

There is no excuse for ever exposing yourself to a child. Regardless of it was a dare or he was drunk. As far as the military he had 3 1/2 hours to do this and he does it during the 5 minutes they were on the field??

I have spoken to many people tonight who thought it was "just a dare" or "all in good fun" but when you have your 8 year old daughter crying because she just had an adult male shake his ***** in front of her you lose ALL sympathy for what drove him to do this.

My 8 year old daughter and I missed it cause we were getting drinks so when we got home I looked up the video on youtube and her and I watched it together. We both thought it was funny. I'm just mad cause we missed it in person and had to watch it on youtube. I'm pretty sure it was much better in person.

wow if this dude has done this at another sporting event, NCSU then yeah, im thinking I might be with topcard on this!

I'd venture to say it's probably the 21 year old simpleton with the serious issues.
No to felonies, but his co-conspirators should also have some repercussions.

I have to say that I do find your post a little disturbing and creepy. While I wouldn't have flow off the hinge if my young daughter was in the stadium to see it, I surely wouldn't look up streaker videos with her in the same room.

I don't think you are the bad guy TC...I.. in fact understand your angst with this situation as a parent. I simply believe that no harm has come to anyone in this situation(including children in attendance) and that the punishment should reflect that of an act of foolishness not one of true criminality.

There are hundreds of situations that as parents we must deal with in regard to our children and the things in which they are exposed to. I considered these things as teaching moments and tried to take advantage of them with my daughter. We simply can not protect their eyes and ears from the world. What we can do is explain to them clearly..and in an adult manner, what their eyes and ears picking up and use those things to educate them. We sometimes forget that our children are not as naive as we think and actually understand these things in a much more mature manner than we expect. At least that was my personal experience with my daughter.

It was military appreciation day and while they were honoring the leaders of all the branches in attendance for the decades of service this fool ran onto the field directly behind them. What is even more sadening is all the people cheering for this "adult" male willfully and intentionally exposing his genitals to thousands of underage kids. Everything was very visible and my 8 year old daughter saw this.

We spoke to a lawyer friend who also saw this and said that the only real issue would be if it was sexual in nature. The hip thrust would ceratainly be hard to deny as sexually suggestive. I hope beyond the criminal offenses he is also brought up on Civil charges.

I completely agree that it was offensive, crude, and totally inappropriate. If I had a little girl, I'd be pissed right there with you. I didn't cheer, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't laughing like crazy. It was embarrassing to have something like this occur when it did. He'll get nailed in court.

I have a 8 year old daughter and we freaking missed him doing it cause we were getting drinks. When we got home we watched it on youtube together. We both thought it was funny I just wish we could have seen it in person.

I don't know if you're right or wrong, I wasn't there, I would suggest you look back on your life and use that as a gauge on what action you deem appropriate. If you can look back and say, I've never done anything dumb while drinking, then go forward with your lawsuit.

Nobody is going to change anyone else's opinion, and this thread has run its course.



EDIT:
OK, I was just worried about the direction this thread was going, and didn't want this to turn into a thread questioning the parenting methods of specific posters on the thread, on either side of the issue... However, I received a suggestion we move this thread to the Spin Room and reopen the thread. I think that's a fair suggestion.

See, what you and people like you do is actually do more harm than good for catching and prosecuting ACTUAL CHILD MOLESTERS. By crying "kiddie rape!" at every chance you marginalize the disgusting act of true child molestation and twist it to fit your bible thumping agenda. This was in NO WAY child molestation and in no way aimed at children or anyone else in a sexual nature. It was a stupid frathouse stunt from a college kid. Something many of us would have probably done in our formative years with enough pushing from our peers and liquid courage. Stop this ignorant act of calling this child molestation.

Also, he is not a student at ECU.

WRONG!!
I was at the detention center when he was bailed out ... $5K bond!

So I'm guessing, if this is worth a felony, State College PA needs to be nuked from orbit.
