The man’s mother told law enforcement that her son has autism, is non-verbal and has the mental capacity of a child.

The victim, who was using the bathroom when she saw the man allegedly peer in at her at the Bradley Park restrooms in the 1500 block of Linda Vista Drive, said she no longer desires prosecution and is at ease after authorities were able to identify the man, per the sheriff’s department.
