Remind me not to tap my feet, zip my zipper, or make noises in a public rest room. Hopefully, they’ve got some better evidence than this, but I would not count on it.
From the article:
"The undercover officer told me he actually tried to come under the stall, where he was actually looking up at the undercover officer while he was performing his act," Chitwood said. A 70-year-old man was also arrested during the 10-hour sex sting, police said.
It seems to me that they had plenty of solid evidence.
I'm not going to worry about doing such things because I know that I will never do them in such as way that it could possibly be confused with an effort at nonverbal communication.
Just as prisoners in Viet Cong prisons developed codes to tap so that they could communicate from one cell to another, this population has also learned a special code, although for completely disgusting and illegal purposes.
Fortunately the police has deciphered this special nonverbal code so that they will be able to keep us safe while differentiating the evil from the innocent.
Sounds like they might have gotten that guy, but they arrested 9 people in one night, which I find a little surprising. I am from Orlando, about 50 miles away. This is not San Francisco or even Minneapolis. It strains credulity that they caught 9 perps in one night at a local shopping mall restroom.
The local cops over there in Volusia have a reputation for doing some pretty aggressive police work, so if I were on the jury, I might be a bit skeptical. If the other 8 are innocent, that might even cast doubt on the one that seems like a slam dunk.
