It was announced by the Bexar County district attorney’s office on Friday that LA Clippers guard Joshua Primo would not be charged criminally for accusations of exposing himself to a San Antonio Spurs team employee. In their announcement, the Bexar County district attorney’s office wrote the following:
"The Bexar County Criminal District Attorney's office today announced that it would decline charges filed against Joshua Primo. Mr. Primo was accused of exposing himself to one individual on five separate occasions over the course of several months. To pursue the charges, the District Attorney's office must be able to prove each element of a criminal offense beyond a reasonable doubt. If evidence is insufficient to prove even one element of a criminal charge, the prosecutor's burden of proof cannot be met and a case must be dismissed. 'More than one prosecutor reviewed the evidence on each charge in this case,' said Bexar County Criminal District Attorney Joe Gonzales. 'Each determined that there was simply not enough evidence to prove the required elements of the charge and meet a prosecutor's statutory obligation.'"
Primo served a four-game suspension to start the 2023-24 NBA season after the league stated that "Primo engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior by exposing himself to women."
The NBA added that Primo maintained his conduct was unintentional, but it was still considered worthy of suspension by the league.
