According to police, Temple is a habitual sex offender with multiple stalking, peeping tom and indecent exposure arrests.
The report stated that given continuous calls about Temple’s exact description at the same time of night, the homes calling being women’s only housing of university students, Temple being found with his pants unzipped while standing in bushes looking into a window, and given his arrest history, officers decided to arrest him.
His charges include misdemeanors for indecent exposure, trespassing, invasion of privacy-peeping tom and felony sex offender registration violation-3rd offense. Temple’s total bond was set at $9,500.
