REDUCED | PUBLIC SEXUAL INDECENCY – State vs. Mr. G. (DMC No. 10117) (Mesa City Court No. 2011-039996): Mr. G. was in a vehicle with another woman when an officer assigned to the central street crimes unit in Mesa walked by his car. He claimed that he saw the woman’s head in Mr. G.’s lap. Based on that, he then arrested both and charged them with Public Sexually Indecency. We were able to show the prosecutor that the officer never actually saw Mr. G.’s penis, therefore the case was overcharged. The prosecutor agreed to reduce it down to a simple Disorderly Conduct and Dismiss the sex crime.
