Mesa police arrested a man caught in the act of placing Polaroid photos of his genitals on vehicles. The department has linked the man to about 30 reports of such photos and indecent exposure since December 1999.

Tuesday evening, detectives saw a man placing a Polaroid photo on a woman’s vehicle that was in a parking lot at Gilbert Road and McKellips in Mesa. He was immediately taken into custody.

During an interview, 41-year-old Jeffery Howard Pritchert admitted to indecently exposing himself twice and also admitted to placing up to 100 photos of his genitals on women’s vehicles.

Detectives arrested Pritchert for numerous counts of public display of explicit sexual materials, public sexual indecency, possession of dangerous drugs and possession of drug paraphernalia.

He is currently in custody and is being held on an $18,000 bond in the Maricopa County Jail.

The Mesa Police Department began receiving calls about Polaroid photos left on vehicles showing a man’s genitals in December 1999. The calls continued and police estimate approximately 30 calls have been linked to the same man.

In November and December 2004, the department had two cases reported in which a man exposing and touching himself in front of women. DNA was collected from those scenes and the samples were matched. In March 2005, officers were notified that the DNA entry had been linked to Pritchert.

Mesa detectives are now working with the Gilbert and Chandler Police Departments, who are also working cases involving Pritchert. Additional charges are pending as the agencies continue their investigations.

A large number of the cases Pritchert admitted to were never reported to police. Anyone who has been a victim, or has any information about these cases is asked to call the Mesa Police Department at (480) 644-2211

Well, that certainly is a novel approach to perversity. Never heard that one before.

Dude- at least get a scanner-copier for this kind of stuff- the ink costs are killer but way better than polaroid film. Better yet- use the copier at work like everyone else.

It must be a bummer to market a product for which there's no demand...

Many worthwhile posts on this topic. Allow me to summarize: Doesn't this man's behavior make him Presidential material?
