Man accused of exposing himself to 2 girls at Harpeth Hall School
NASHVILLE TN Oct 5 2017 — A 28-year-old man was arrested Monday night after Metro police say he exposed himself to two girls at a Nashville school.
Edward G. Duncan is charged with indecent exposure in connection with the incident at Harpeth Hall School at 3801 Hobbs Road in Green Hills.
Police say Duncan exposed himself to two 12-year-old girls on Sept. 22.
According to an arrest affidavit, the two students reported to a school counselor that a man driving an SUV entered the school campus and drove passed them with the window rolled down.
When the vehicle passed, the girls were able to see the suspect had his penis exposed and was masturbating, according to the affidavit.
A school security officer later reviewed the school’s security surveillance system for the time of the event and caught a blue Honda Pilot entering the property. It also showed the suspect pass the girls with the vehicle window rolled down and his penis exposed and him masturbating, the affidavit states.
Authorities ran the vehicle’s license plate and found it belongs to Duncan.
During an interview with detectives, the affidavit continues, Duncan told police the vehicle was his and that he drove onto the campus, exposed himself and masturbated in front of the girls.
Duncan has reportedly faced severe sexual accusations in the past.
According to information from The Nashville Scene, on Sept. 26, 2008, Duncan pleaded guilty to three counts of simple assault and was ordered to serve two years of probation after being indicted on two counts of child rape, three counts of sexual battery and one count of statutory rape for the “unlawful sexual penetration” of three girls ages 5 to 7.
Duncan had been accused of showing his penis to the girls who lived next door to him at his parent’s Belle Meade home, The Nashville Scene reported. According to the report, he was charged with tricking at least one of the girls into licking his penis by telling her it was a “lollipop tree.”
The case is no longer public, authorities said Tuesday, meaning it was expunged.
Duncan, who was booked into the Metro jail just before 9:10 p.m. Monday, posted a $10,000 bond about two hours later.
He is due in court for a hearing on the indecent exposure charge Oct. 20.
