Hunter Osborn, football player who exposed himself in yearbook photo, will not face charges

The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office in Arizona announced Wednesday that high school football player Hunter Osborn will not face charges after he exposed himself during the team’s yearbook photo as a prank. Officials dismissed the case after all 69 people at the photo shoot — who were considered “victims” — declined to press charges.

An online petition also was started in Osborn’s support, asking that the charges be dropped.

“I’m so happy with all the support, I am so thankful,” Osborn, who’s now 19, told ABC 15 on Wednesday afternoon. “God is on my side and I’m blessed [by] everything that’s happened from the support side,”

Osborn, who was 18 at the time of the photo, was facing one count of furnishing harmful items to minors, a felony, and 69 counts of misdemeanor indecent exposure over the prank. He was arrested Saturday, the day of his senior prom.
