The recurring problem of men trolling for other men in county parks drew attention anew late last month when a physical therapist was arrested for the second time in six years for exposing himself in a public restroom on Wabasso Causeway.
Christopher Boyden, 48, who goes by the name Bhaja Boyden at Compass Medical on 14th Street where he is a physical therapist and administrator, was arrested when a 34-year-old man accused him of snapping photographs of the alleged victim as he used the restroom, and then sat naked in an open restroom stall masturbating.
Boyden, who six years ago pled guilty to a similar charge, this time pled not guilty and is asking for a jury trial.
Officials say incidents of indecent exposure while receiving little attention are far from rare in county parks. It happens every day. Every day, said Beth Powell, a conservation land manager with Indian River County. Its a terrible problem and it has been going on for years.
One place where primarily homosexuals engage in sex in public is the Oslo Riverfront Conservation area, she said, but it is happening at all the county parks and conservation areas.
On the barrier island, the county park near the former tracking station off A1A is a particular problem area, Powell said. Its a problem that no one wants to talk about.
A few years ago the sheriffs office stepped up its patrols ...
Powell said it helped, but has not stopped the problem all together. She said she still sees the same cars trolling the parks that she saw five years ago.
My biggest fear is a child running ahead on a trail and being exposed to that, she said of people having sex right along the trails, or in the public restrooms.

Subtle. Insightful.
A strong candidate for post of the week.
sadly, there's no contest - he nailed it. It explains why they love Disneyworld, too.
If only they could marry....
good response.
and BTW Locust Shade park in PWC VA is a pickle park, too.
If you take kids there, don’t let them off by themselves. Just FYI.

Perhaps our own (Polk Co.) Sheriff Grady Judd would offer his services.
He’s been a barracuda where these types of shenanigans take place.

Solution: Open the county parks to hunters. I’m guessing the two crowds won’t get along too well and might pack up their act and go home (or, at least to some other public bathrooms).
Cause in bars those under 21 risk getting thrown out.

This nation has experienced a LOT of moral erosion over the last six years. He probably expects the jury to get cowed by accusations of “Pervertaphobia.”
You must really love that band!
