Man Arrested by MBTA Police For Taking Pics of Men Pissing in Subway Bathrooms



(FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) - A local man arrested at a Boston MBTA station for allegedly taking lewd photographs in a bathroom. MBTA police responded to reports on Saturday of a man taking pictures of other men at the urinals inside the men's bathroom at South Station. Police later arrested Kevin Wilkinson from Fall River. He had a cell phone and an iPod nano on him. On the iPod, officers found a video of a man urinating.

But...he told me he'd make me a star? Damnit, not again.

Seriously though, what's the protocol on this if you see it going down? Like do you ruin someone's day letting them know this bro was just filming them piss or do you go the ignorance is bliss route?

I only wonder because I ran into some creep snapping covert pics of some chic's legs on the green line about a month back and had no idea how to handle it.  Like the girl was oblivious, it was nothing salacious, just side profile of her leg, no cooter or anything, and yet it was still this skeevy guy with a man purse/satchel. Do I absolutely blow up her day, and alert everyone to this perv? Her day will be shot, she'll probably never ride public transportation again, I had no idea what to do.

Ultimately I settled on mean mugging the guy, he knew he was busted, pretended to be confused by his phone and got off on the next stop, but about a month later I still haven't shook it, I literally am clueless about what should be done there.  On the one hand he's a creep, on the other, there was nothing risque about the pic, I mean I've snapped pics of funny looking drunks and creepers and people making a scene on the train before...I don't know, just color me confused on the whole deal I guess.
