According to the police report from the West Monroe Police Department, Pearce, who's address is listed in Sharpsburg, Georgia, was caught on video surveillance footage pleasuring himself  "hunched over a laptop with his hands in his pants" in the electronics section of the Walmart on Glenwood Drive in West Monroe.

Jordan Boudreaux, the arresting officer of the West Monroe Police Department, responding to a report of a white male watching porn on a laptop in the electronics department, masturbating, says that a Walmart employee pointed out Pearce as the offender. He was easily recognized by the employee since he had been barred from the location in July of this year after he was arrested there on charges of shoplifting.

Officer Boudreaux immediately contacted the suspect and questioned him about the accusation. He initially denied watching pornographic material, but then admitted he was looking at "pictures".  Pearce denied masturbating in the store (and this is where it gets even grosser) and stated he "probably still had ejaculation on his hands from four hours prior."
