New York State Police Charged Man With Public Lewdness

New York State Police said in a press release that they have charged a 52-year-old man of Jay, New York, in Essex County, with Public Lewdness. The charge stems from an incident that allegedly occurred back in August.

The New York Sate Senate website defines public lewdness as "intentionally exposing one's intimate parts or engaging in a lewd act in a public place, or in a private place where it can be seen from a public area, with the intent to gratify sexual desire or offend/alarm others".

It is considered  a Class B misdemeanor.
