Nude at home

[medsailor]

As reported in the 'Herald' last friday.

Dunfermline Sheriff Court has put a man on the Sex Offenders Registar after a paper girl aged 15 saw him naked through a window in his own house. It was reported he normaly slept naked. He will be sentenced next month.

Totally outrageous and the procurator fiscal should take a long look at himself for allowing such a thing reaching the court.

A person should be allowed to dress as they so desire within the confines of their own home.

The circumstances of how the girl saw him , where he was is highly relevant . We all know that its ok to be nude in your own home but being visible to 15 year old girls when you are doing so is not right .

It seems that he was repeatedly and deliberately targeting the girl - a bit different from being accidentally seen.

Lesson 1 - NEVER trust a newspaper (or other media outlet) to tell the whole story about a court case.

The Courier puts a different slant on the story:

The 'Courier' report certainly puts this in a different light compared that that in the 'Herald'.

The Courier certainly tells it in a different light and it certainly sounds like it is true. Totally different from the way the initial post was put to the forum.

Meanwhile at nearby Perth Sheriff Court, this chap had better luck with his excuses!!
