Anderson Man Flashes Mother At School Bus Stop

Anderson, SC Apr. 16, 2008

For a mom who’s used to a normal routine, Tuesday took a strange twist for Tenez Geer.  “About 2:45 every day, I go to meet him at the bus stop,” she says.  While walking to meet her first grader after school, the Anderson mother noticed her neighbor, Tyrone Wilson, on his front porch.  “He actually asked me what time it was.” Geer could have never expected what came next. 

“I noticed him, and I wanted to make sure what I saw, so I took a double take.” The 33 year old exposed himself right in the middle of the street, giving Geer an eyeful.  “I said, you need to go back in the house, and if you don’t leave me alone, I’ll call the cops.  I felt very violated, humiliated.” The whole thing happened just as the school bus, full of students, was supposed to be arriving at the stop.  Luckily, the bus was late Tuesday.  After Geer called 911, deputies showed up and arrested Wilson.  But the young mother wonders what could have happened.  “What if I hadn’t been at the bus stop, and my child was walking down the street, and here this guy is on his front porch.”

Surprisingly, she thinks her not-so-friendly neighobr should not be in jail, but somewhere he can get help for his bad behavior.  “He does need help,” she says.

As of Wednesday night, Wilson was still being held at the Anderson Detention Center, on a $3000 bond.
