Raleigh attorney arrested for indecent liberties with child, days after arrest for secret peeping charge

Timothy Lyons, 31, is in jail with no bond.

The arrest warrant accuses Lyons of attempting to "take immoral, improper and indecent liberties" with a child.

An arrest warrant from last week accused Timothy Lyons of "secretly or surreptitiously" using an iPod "to create a photographic image" of a juvenile "underneath or through the person's clothing for the purpose of viewing the person's body or undergarments and without the person's consent."

Cary police said Lyons came to the police station last Wednesday night on his own free will and asked to speak to an officer. A spokesperson for Cary police said Lyons was taken into custody and charged after speaking with an officer.

At the time, Lyons was given a $5,000 bond and ordered to have no contact with the victim referenced in the arrest warrant. Also, the judge Thursday told Lyons to have no contact with anyone younger than the age of 18.

According to Cary police, Lyons told officers he did not touch or harm any young people, which is reflected on the arrest warrant. He also had no prior criminal history.

WRAL News visited Lyons last Thursday at his home after the secret peeping charge, but prior to the indecent liberties charge.

"[I] never had issue of this sort before," Lyons said.

Lyons also said he would clear his name in court. He told WRAL News that he knew the alleged victim.

Lyons was listed as an injury attorney at the law offices of Hardison & Cochran in Raleigh, located at 7340 Six Forks Road, but his bio page appears to have been taken down.
