Man Exposes Himself to Kids at Wiregrass

A 55-year-old Pennsylvania man showed off his privates at The Shops at Wiregrass—and was subsequently shown the inside of a jail cell.

Stephen J. Racik, of Jenkintown, Pa., drove by a parking lot carnival at Wiregrass late Friday, April 5, according to a Pasco County Sheriff’s Office complaint affidavit. Racik stopped his vehicle near minors and then “arched his back, exposed his penis … and began to shake it before driving off,” the affidavit said.

The minors, who were only described as “under the age of fourteen,” immediately alerted authorities.

Racik was found, arrested and charged with two counts of lewd or lascivious exhibition. Both counts carry a $10,000 bond.

Racik was taken to the Land O’ Lakes Detention Center Friday where he remained until Sunday morning.
