When I first spotted this story via Google News, I was flabbergasted. A man was arrested for indecent exposure because he was seen making coffee in his own kitchen by some lady looking through his windows. You can read the initial story for yourself: Man Charged After Making Coffee Naked

The Police in Springfield, Virginia are Inept

According to the 2000 Census, Springfield, Virginia has a population of more than 30,417 people. Apparently, indecent exposure in your own home is considered a crime warranting an arrest because there isn't already enough real crime taking place. Excuse me?

The story goes like this: A lady was cutting through this guy's yard and saw him naked. She hastily got onto the sidewalk to continue and saw him naked again in a door window. Let me ask a stupid question. If you see something you don't want to see once, why would you look again?

She reported the incident to the police and the man was arrested for indecent exposure. Coincidentally, the woman was the wife of a police officer of the same police department.

Something Stinks in this Story

When he was arrested, the man admitted to going downstairs and making coffee for himself, while naked, at about 5:30 am and while it was dark. If the lady happened to be passing at that time, it would be easy for her to see him. According to the lady, however, she was taking her son to school at around 8:40 am, during daylight, when she saw him. At that time of day, it wouldn't have been so easy to see him.

If you read the comments on both articles, you'll see what I'm getting at. The woman was cutting through his yard and looking in his windows. I guess there are indecent exposure laws that can get you arrested for being naked in your own home but there aren't any peeping tom laws. She looked not once, but twice. My guess is that she saw what she saw and then told her husband about it and he was the person who was really offended. Personally, I think the man should sue for false arrest.

The police have already figured out they made a major mistake by letting this get on the news. They put out flyers asking if other people had seen anything in that neighborhood. They're trying to cover their proverbial asses.

Take this as a warning. If you want to get naked, or stay naked if you sleep in the buff, make sure no one can see you from outside your home. Uptight women in uptight communities are dangerous people, especially when they're married to police officers.
