25-year-old Mark Cowart was booked on February 6th for m*sturbating at the Vanderbilt University Divinity Library. Officers responded to a report of a man on the second floor watching p*rnography on a library computer. Officers then received a second call that he was now actively m*sturbating. When officers arrived, they observed Cowart sitting at a computer watching p*rn, with his sweatpants pulled down and his hands in his boxers, actively m*sturbating. The officer tried to handcuff him, but he was able to slip away due to an unknown substance on both hands. When he was finally arrested, he admitted to m*sturbating inside the library because he was “h*rny.” At least seven people witnessed Cowart m*sturbating inside the library. Officers noted there was an M&M tube located near the computer, which contained a glass pipe and tobacco. He was then transported to the Downtown Detention Center for processing.
