‘Public p***er’ jailed after masturbating and urinating on Tube for OnlyFans

A “vile” man who shared videos of himself masturbating and urinating on the Tube has been jailed.

Nikki Darke, 37, of Earlham Grove, east London, posted videos to OnlyFans and Twitter under the pseudonym “public p***er”, according to British Transport Police (BTP).

Inner London Crown Court heard how he committed multiple indecent actsm– including urinating on seats and masturbating in front of other passengers – while travelling on the Piccadilly line between February and July.

He was arrested on September 4 after being spotted by plain clothes police officers. Police found that he also used his online accounts to obtain indecent images of children after seizing his phone.

When asked in interview about the content he was sharing, he replied: “It’s me doing really stupid things in public places.”

Darke continued to explain he was publishing the videos and taking requests from online users to earn money, claiming: “The people that pay, that’s what they want to see.”

Darke was charged with outraging public decency, criminal damage and making indecent images of children.

On December 3 he was sentenced to 16 months in prison and handed a 10-year Sexual Harm Prevention Order – banning him from taking photographs or videos in public.

Detective Constable Christopher Pretty, of BTP, said: “This was a foul and frankly absurd case, and I’m pleased to see such a vile offender taken off the network.

“It’s clear Darke’s actions were for his own selfish amusement and gratification, yet a number of passengers were subjected to witnessing his odious behaviour.

“As a result of our extensive inquiries, we not only reprimanded Darke for the damage he caused to railway property and the indecent acts he was committing, but also for the utterly indefensible indecent images he gathered.

“I’d like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that if they ever witness such behaviour while travelling they can text us discreetly on 61016.”
