Los Angeles Indecent Exposure Attorney

Overview of California Indecent Exposure Laws

Indecent exposure, although often viewed as a humorous penalty, is in fact a serious offense that deserves to be treated with an equally serious defense. Many do not realize this, but indecent exposure is often categorized as a sex crime and can result in the same social stigma and struggles that are associated with criminal acts of this nature. In the state of California, to be found guilty of indecent exposure, it must be proven that you exposed the genitals or other "private areas" of your body in a public area in a willing and knowing manner. This display must have been done in a way that was meant to draw attention, to offend the people in the general area or to sexually arouse either you or someone within your vicinity.
