Penn State Police confirmed today that they have filed
charges against Nittany Lions basketball player Stanley
Pringle in an incident involving public masturbation that
occurred last Thursday in Pattee Library.
Police said Pringle, the team's point guard, sat behind the
victim in the stacks section of the library, attempted to
start a conversation with the woman and began masturbating.
Police have filed charges of public lewdness and disorderly
conduct against him in connection to the incident, but
Centre County District Judge Jonathan Grine, who is out of
the office, was unable to sign the criminal complaint as of
2 p.m. today. Without the signed complaint, Pringle cannot
be formally arrested.
Sports Information Director Brian Siegrist confirmed that
charges were filed against Pringle yesterday, but denied
Pringle's involvement in the masturbation incident.
Siegrist said Pringle's status with the basketball team
remains unchanged.
A similar incident occurred on March 21 on the second-floor
landing of McElwain Hall's main stairwell between 8 and
8:15 p.m, when police said a man entered the building
behind the woman and followed her to the stairwell landing
where he began to masturbate. A similar description of the
man was given in both incidents, police said. No charges
have been filed for the McElwain Hall incident.
