Understanding Your Charges
- Indecent exposure: Exposing genitals, buttocks, or female breasts when another person is present, and that person is offended or alarmed by the act. Although this is typically considered a misdemeanor crime, if the alleged victim is a minor, it can be considered a felony crime.
- Public sexual indecency: Knowingly or intentionally engaging in a sex act in public, or when another person (who would be offended or alarmed by the act) is present.
