(AP) MEDFORD, Ore A registered sex offender who fashioned a loin cloth from a rope and piece of lawn furniture was arrested near a high school, where he asked four girls for a ride to the mall or a motel, police said.
Kelly James Bailey, 33, of Greenwater, Wash., was wearing only the rope when he shocked a Medford woman by appearing in her back yard Thursday morning.
Before he left, Bailey, who appeared to be covered in feces, ran away with a strip of leopard-print vinyl peeled from the seat of lawn chair, said Medford police Lt. Mike Moran.
More than an hour later, four North Medford High School girls were waiting in a car near the school when Bailey now wearing blue jeans, but still covered in the apparent fecal matter approached the car. He asked the girls for a ride to the Red Carpet Inn or the Rogue Valley Mall.
"The girls wisely rolled up their windows and left," Moran said.
The girls alerted authorities, who spotted Bailey running near campus.
"When we caught him, he still appeared to be covered in fecal matter," Moran said. "He told us, though, he was partying with girls the night before and somehow ended up rolling around in tomato paste."
As officers patted him down, they found that he had used the rope and vinyl strip to make a primitive loin cloth.
"I think it's definitely the strangest case of the day," Moran said.
Bailey was lodged in Jackson County Jail on charges of theft, trespassing, criminal mischief and failing to register as a sex offender in Oregon. He was held on $24,000 bail.
The theft charge was for allegedly taking the vinyl strip, Moran said.
"As officers patted him down"
And he was covered in doo-doo?
I hope the cops get some "hazard" pay
This guy's 33 . . . ? He looks like a worn-out, run-down decade older!
Vinyl leopard print is so last week. There are some much better synthetics out there for making loin cloth that you can't even tell from real leopard fur.
LOL. There was doodoo feces everywhere. My husband and I still crack up over that interview.
Looks like a perv to me.
who is this guy? ....this picture keeps popping up
In Oregon, there ARE no underpaid goobermint workers.
Surely you are joking? :)
The theft charge was for allegedly taking the vinyl strip, Moran said.Something tells me the owner didn't want it back.

Sorry......I can understand that seeing this photo can cause nightmares.
I'm sure that in general you are correct...however, in perspective, cleaning up fecal mater from some sex predator sure runs up how much I'd view as suitable pay were I the one expected to clean out the squad car.
Prisoners wash out the cops cars after an officer has searched them.

Or another Clinton cover-up.
thank you for your support
Incidentally, Oliver Stone movies are about as poignant as watching two slugs race.
Agreed. I've cleaned many a mess (usually drunk puke) from the back of patrol cars.
