Alleged Red Line chicken choker nabbed
By adamg on Mon, 09/17/2012 - 7:19pm
MBTA Transit Police report arresting a man they say exposed himself and masturbated in full view of a female passenger on a Red Line train in July.
The woman snapped Peter O'Connor's photo and police say tips from the public based on that led them to O'Connor, whom they arrested today at the Braintree Red Line stop.
O'Connor, 55, of Braintree, will be arraigned in Cambridge District Court tomorrow on a charge of open and gross lewdness.
Innocent, etc.

Chicken Choker?
What if it was his dolphin he was slapping? Or monkey that he was spanking? Or Bishop he was flogging? Let's let the courts sort this out.
I should remind everyone that
I should remind everyone that there is no video or pictures of the act occurring to my knowledge. Innocent until PROVEN guilty.
I agree and I wonder about the video myself
I find two parts of this story suspicious.
1) The woman did not get off the train at the next stop to report the crime. She stayed on the train for several stops after the alleged offense.
2) The second he whipped his thing out, she should have whipped out her cellphone and started taking pictures or video of him in the act. All I've seen is a picture of him snoozing on the train with his shorts on.
However, I don't want to be a victim blamer so I'll give both of them the benefit of the doubt. There could be video that we haven't seen yet.
Do you REALLY think ...
... that T officials would release photographs of the act itself?
Serously?
Otherwise, there may be MANY reasons she didn't get off the train -starting with "I'll be fired if the T makes me late for work again".
Just because it isn't as you would have it,doesn't mean that it 1) didn't happen or 2)the T doesn't have evidence of public release for public release.
Roughing up the suspect?
Was he?
Interesting ...
A quick google search shows that a man named Peter O'Connor, 53, was arrested for suspicious activity on Valentine's Day 2011.
Maybe he did let the snake out on the train.

Serious question
At what point do we enact a special "three strikes and you're out" on sex offenders? I was thinking about this at the bar earlier...if you commit three sex crimes, the law should be you get castrated or go to jail for life.
Same goes for scumbag dads who skip out on child support payments. You miss three, you get a vasectomy or go to jail. Come on, fellow men, get your (expletive) together.
There's an interesting (and
There's an interesting (and rather silent) conflict within a certain segment of the populace who has to balance their love of harsh puritanical judgments/punishments and the absolute and solemn right to procreate. Anything that is deemed to infringe upon that right in the slightest gets lumped right in with eugenics, and then we've Godwin'ed the whole discussion.
Right to procreate?
Bullcrap. We're up to 7 billion. It stopped being a right at five.
Whew
Safe to travel on the Red Line again.

First Pee-Wee, now Martin Mull. All my heroes have feet of clay.
I was going to say "John Bolton should really know better"
But Martin Mull is clearly a superior reference.
What is the world coming to
I totally thought someone had slaughtered a chicken on the train when I first read this. Strangely relieved to see it is only garden variety perversion.
He has been on the Green
He has been on the Green Line, usually around Harvard Avenue in the afternoons. What a filthy animal!
