Turner originally faced a charge of battery after he was accused of masturbating him- self with a woman's hand during a return trip from the Rose Bowl January. , Turner was sentenced to one year of unsupervised proba- tion. 90 days in jail (suspended), 150 hours of community ser- vice, $163.50 fine and received a no-contact order to avoid the female student. Turner didn't admit to masturbating with the student's hand, but told Judge Thomas Morden. "My penis was ex- posed." Eric's accuser addressed the court prior to sentencing. "We were very good friends before this happened," she said. "He was someone that I thought I could trust. He was a really PHOTO BY ANDY BENSOWTHE NmlTER good friend of mine."
