ESPN Producer Admits Spying On Neighbor While She Changed

Well, here’s (hopefully) the creepiest thing you’ll hear about another person doing today. Neil Goldberg, who’s worked in television production with ESPN (his current employer) and Fox for nearly 30 years, was caught standing on a stool and pleasuring himself while watching a female neighbor change clothes. Yeah.

It must have been completely obvious what Goldberg was doing, because police said he admitted to them that he did it…and this doesn’t seem like the kind of thing someone would readily admit to. Here’s how it reportedly went down:

Police said a woman walking her dog in the Bradford Walk complex reported seeing a man standing on a stool and pleasuring himself while peering through a neighbor’s window.

Farmington police said when Goldberg saw the woman, he stopped and went back inside his home.

So…just how out in the open was this guy while he was doing this? At least enough for someone to see him, and apparently enough for him to figure out without much trouble that he’d been spotted.

Charges against Goldberg include breach of peace, disorderly conduct, public indecency, and trespass. The Big Lead points out that ESPN didn’t exactly need this story after the Jeremy Green skeeviness over the summer – not to mention ESPN employees’ past bad experiences with being spied on.

Goldberg worked extensively on ESPN’s NASCAR productions, and was apparently a key part of many Sports-Emmy-winning broadcasts. It’s safe to say, though, that he’s done his last work for ESPN for a good while, if not ever.

We can’t help but wonder now if we’ll see Goldberg’s name in the forthcoming ESPN tell-all book.
