Summary: A politician allegedly assaulted his 103 year-old disabled mother-in-law.

William Springler is not going to be invited back to the nursing home any time soon. The veteran politician with a buttery smile is facing charges in Pennsylvania. He allegedly molested a patient who is also his 103-year-old mother-in-law!

The victim suffers from dementia, according to The Smoking Gun. This month, Springler, 75, visited her three times at Wayne Nursing Home in Delaware County and allegedly groped her breast. The criminal complaint said that he was first seen touching the geriatric on December 15. A nursing home employee witnessed the fondling, and she said that he touched the victim’s breast in a way that could not be deemed to be anything but sexual.

The employee then notified a supervisor so that staff would be on the lookout in the future. According to ABC, the police were also called, but no arrest was made at that time.

Two days later, Springler returned for more. The police allege that he groped his mother-in-law again. When he noticed that a second employee was staring, he reportedly turned bright red and hurried out. However, that didn’t stop him from attempting a boob grab hat trick. The complaint states that he returned on December 22. This time staff confronted him, and his reaction was feigning ignorance before leaving abruptly.

However, the dirty politician was finally arrested, and he was charged with three counts of indecent assault on a person with a disability. According to the complaint, the woman is physically and mentally unable to defend herself because of her dementia. Staff noted that she was completely dependant on them for care and could not walk.

Springler faces misdemeanor charges, and he was released on $10,000 bail. He is scheduled for a hearing on January 5, and he is ordered to not go near his mother-in-law in the meantime.

Springler served on the Radnor Township Commission for 25-years before he resigned. He ran for public office as a Democrat, and he was well-known in his community. The politician and real estate agent graduated from Villanova University, and The Smoking Gun reports that his victim had lived with him before she was placed in the home.
