The police have released a photograph of a man who was allegedly masturbating on an uptown 3 train last week. A 41-year-old woman took a cellphone picture of the man she claims was pleasuring himself in front of her. The man got on the train at 42nd Street/Times Square at 3:45 p.m. and then got out at the 96th Street stop. And 1010WINS adds, "The woman says she tried to lodge a complaint at the 32nd Precinct and provide police there with the suspect's photograph but was apparently rebuffed by an officer who, according to the complainant, told her it was not a police matter and to report it through 311." The police urge people with information to call Crime Stoppers (800-577-TIPS), go to the Crime Stoppers website or text 274637 (CRIMES) then enter TIP577. And Internal Affairs is looking into the "not a police matter" part.

It's the same media that NEVER mentioned Muslims' hatred of Israel as a possible motive for 9/11.

Theres a slight chance he wasnt masturbating at all. Unless we see him in the act in the picture we cannot conclude anything. She could just be vindictive and evil, trying to get back at someone she doesn't like.
Case dismissed!
Um, men are jerking off on subways and buses ALL the time. Of course male passengers never see this, as the guy sits and stares at women to make them notice and embarrass them. This is an FYI - this shit happens every DAY. And worse. Some women leave the subway with spunk on their clothing when men jerk off ONTO them.
I'm sure it does happen often but unless there is proof in the picture (Later comments have said that there was: this picture was cropped), one cannot be too sure that he was the culprit. I'd like to believe people are truly innocent until proven guilty of what they're accused of.
Anyone whose on a bender can take a picture of any guy, label them a pervert, and post it for all to see. Then newspapers & blogs can pick up on it and splash it all over the place without a hint of investigative knowledge.
And women who cry rape are OBVIOUSLY LYING!
They obviously are lying. From today's article.

That's bad of the cop. A guy exposed himself to me last summer, and I got a photo. I went upstairs and found two cops who were very cooperative, and I did wind up viewing mugshots.
true, they showed his picture on 7 local news, his man bag is covering his crotch. unless there's other pics.
so what is the law anyway? you need a full on pic o'brown eye winking at you?
I hope she got a decent picture of the overworked cop.
So he got on at 42nd St, and got out at 96th St, but what stop did he get off?
Hahahahaha!!! Thats what I want to know?! Sounds like a quick shooter to me, which is even more pathetic than exposing yourself off on the train!!
What a complete loser.
The tension must have been gripping.
Maybe he was watching somebody breast feeding.
i have a serious problem with this. yeah, this guy probably was masturbating, but what if he wasn't? it's certainly possible that he was wanking it, but as of right now, it's just some woman we don't know's word. it's also certainly possible that the woman was mistaken or crazy, etc. but it doesn't matter for this guy. his photo is all over the internet and on tv, etc. no trial, no jury, no police inquiry, nothing. just some woman said so. so he is now known to the world as a pervert/sex offender. it's scary, dangerous, and irresponsible. before cellphone cameras, the internet, blogs, etc., there was due process, an arrest, a trial, etc. before someone was considered guilty. today all it takes to be considered guilty is some woman with a cellphone saying he is.
It doesn't stop gothamist from "reporting" him as a masturbator. Same with the gay bashing Corner Bistro waiter who wasn't gay bashing and the anti-feminist Hasidic Jewish policeman who wasn't twisting a dog owner's nipples.
Beat it, creep!
Hold on here a second. If breast feeding is allowed in public because it's a natural kind of thing, why can't masturbation be allowed?
If you go to a zoo you see the chimps doing it all the time. What is the problem here?
Hi I'm Snoopy and I'm saying "daring" and "controversial" things to get a reaction. Oh won't someone react to me, pleeeeease! Oh yay someone did!
*masturbates furiously*
I bet the cop was of the darker pursuasion, probably overweight and pregnant to boot.
That was really a cruel observation on your part Bernie.
Racist and sexist?
Congratulations - you win today's Bigotry Daily Double!!!
Just add a homophobic or xenophobic slur, and you'll be eligible for today's Bigotry Trifecta!
"of the darker persuasion"????
Good grief.
Not surprising. I once was waiting for a train late at night (of course it was taking forever) and some creepster sat down next to me and started masturbating. There were cops in the upper level of the station (59th st) and when I told them, they said they'd check it out and came back to tell me, "didn't see anyone down there except for some homeless guys, deal with it." Thanks a lot bud.
That photo is cropped from the one at NYPost. The original is a lot more suspicious, it actually shows his hands...
I bought an outfit that has fake arms on the outside so my real arms can be on the inside when I want to masturbate in public.
That sir, is genius. That deserves the Nobel.
It would have been a police matter if he was masturbating on a donut.
Wow, you've been to a cop initiation?
I once saw a mutilated cat on the sidewalk across the street from my local police station (not near the road at all, so definitely not hit by a car). When I called they told me it wasn't a police matter and said "what do you want me to do about it?" Rather than suggesting who I should call the cop just kept repeating this line over and over in a really belittling way. Maybe it wasn't their responsibility but that doesn't release them from providing accurate advice to a neighbor. No accountability.
I know I shouldn't but I find these stories hilarious.
why shouldn't you?
cause some people are very sensitive about it and are disgusted by it. I on the other hand, find humor in it. self-pleasure on the subway. what isn't funny about that?
plus, I'm a little bit of a voyeuer, so I don't mind it so much.
Ooh kinky. I like that.
This city is about to descend into 1970s chaos. The FIRE economy is dead forever. There are 2 million people here who survive on tax dollars. Did anyone notice the FEDERAL government's tax revenue declined nearly 20% in 2008?
The police realize every day that there are a million laws on the books and they are broken every single day. Their job is not to arrest every lawbreaker at every opportunity. Their job is to maintain the peace.
Yeah, it sucks this guy does not conform with the social norms of our society, but he didn't hurt anyone. In many cultures in the past, public masturbation was in fact quite common.
I'm sorry, but the police are simply not going to enforce the prudish morals of our college educated class. I'm sure they wold like to, and maybe even I would like them to, but there are far bigger problems.
I'm sorry, but the police are simply not going to enforce the prudish morals of our college educated class.
So only college educated folks are offended by a guy jacking off in public?
I find it's much easier to get up, yell at the guy, make him feel bad about himself and then march off the subway.
Not only should you "get up, & yell at the guy, to make him feel bad" You should take several pictures of him (ala paparazzi!) while dancing a jolly jig, singing Right Said Fred's 'I'm Too Sexy' and drawing as much attention as possible. Throw your steaming hot Starbucks coffee on him. Then projectile vomit on him. Point at his pathetically small penis and laugh as loudly as you can. Feel free to fully exploit his stupidity, until he runs from the train. Then take his photo to the cops and the news stations by 4:30pm so his ugly mug can be plastered all over the 6pm news, thus crucifying him in the court of public opinion before he can even smell anything close to a fair trial.
Thats what you do to pigs who want kids and innocent people to see them expose themselves in public!!

citation needed.
What culture was that - the Island of Pervertia? - or the United Kingdom of Sodom? - or perhaps it was the City-state of Prostateum?
Next time you see him do that poor bastard a favor and suck his cock so that he'll leave the rest of us "prudes" alone.
So he was going downtown on an uptown train?
Ha!
How about if you stand on a bus with your crotch near a girl's face and look down her shirt until you get a hard on? Is that OK since you're not touching anyone?
only if you pretend not to notice.
My girlfriend and I saw this same guy on the Q train. I have a video of him chewing on the strap to his backpack. Right after i stopped filming him, he started masturbating. We had 2 children with us and he was doing it right in front of us. I yelled at him to stop and he got off (no pun intended) at the next stop.
Why did you do that? Most children love observing the behaviors of wild animals. You know how many people watch Discovery and Animal Planet?
Caught!

It's true that anyone can lie about anything. And it's a shame when they do because they ruin it for people who need real help. But still, the majority tell the truth.
