While he had left by the time officers arrived, there was surveillance tape to back up her story. When William Wimberly returned the next day, they arrested him and charged him with public indecency.

Detectives believe there have been other victims who did not report the incident to police.

One week before the incident, Wimberly had been sentenced to three years probation after having been convicted of public indecency related to four separate incidents over the past two years. Those incidents included ones at a library and store that sells meditation pillows.

Wimberly has been excluded from all four places where incidents happened as well as several other businesses.

Anyone with information about unreported activities involving Wimberly is asked to please contact Detective Cory Stenzel at 503-823-0453, cory.stenzel@portlandoregon.gov.
