Indecent exposure is defined as the willing exposure of your genitals in the presence of another individual who may be offended. In addition, attention must be directed to your genitals, either for your sexual gratification, or to offend another. The charge can be elevated to aggravated indecent exposure if you do this and enter a building you didn’t have permission to enter. In addition, making contact with another individual while exposed is considered sexual assault.
Generally speaking, indecent exposure results in six months of jail time, a $1000 fine, and mandatory registration as a sex offender. Aggravated indecent exposure may be considered a felony, which can result in longer jail time and higher fines.
Being convicted of indecent exposure can have a serious negative impact on your life. Aside from extended jail time and large fines, being registered as a sex offender can cause you to lose certain licenses, prevent you from applying to certain jobs, and can prevent you from seeing your children, among other concerns. A sex crime lawyer can help defend you by examining your situation and determining what strategies would work best as your defense. For example, an argument could be made that you did not willingly expose yourself, or that you had reason to believe no one else would be in the area.
