The cited Disorderly Conduct statute DOES have a reference to conduct that is obscene.

3) Engages in offensive, obscene, abusive, boisterous, or noisy conduct
I think what they are trying to say is that using a strict parsing of the language of the statute by itself his conduct could have merely been offensive, abusive, boisterous, or noisy, rather than obscene. The problem is that the charging document explains specifically what conduct led to these charges and his guilty plea.

Sgt. Karsnia was investigating lewd conduct.   If the definition of Lewd includes Obscenity, then the obscenity reference in the statute includes lewd conduct.
