The accused has written several books and also received distinguished awards for his teachings over his years as a professor.

Repeat offender

It is also found on the clips that Matsoukas, reportedly, performed acts of masturbation, indecent exposure around the parking lot and restrooms, apart from his case of abuse to his pet dog.

He was booked on all these charges and it is said that when cops came in with a warrant, he repeatedly begged them to shoot him down. 

“I’m done, I’m dead. You don’t understand, I do it to blow off steam,” Matsoukas told rangers from the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources.
