Deputies arrested a Hernando County man for indecent exposure. The Police were first called to a residence for a possible burglary. Officers witnessed the suspect, 42-year old Brandon Glogower, with his pants down, urinating in the front yard of the victim.
Upon witnessing the officers, Glogower turned towards the residence and began pounding on the front door. Deputies dragged the defendant away from the home and arrested him. The victim stated to police that he has never met Glogower and saw him relieving himself near the front door of his home.
Officers determined that the suspect was intoxicated. A pat down search of the defendant revealed 10 prescription pills. Glogower faces charges of exposure of sex organs, possession of a controlled substance and resisting arrest without violence.
Florida Statute 800.03 states that it is unlawful to expose sex organs in public or on another's private property. Florida considers this crime a first degree misdemeanor and is punishable by up to one year in jail. The offender will face additional penalties for the possession of a controlled substance and resisting arrest without violence charges.
Alcohol and prescription drugs can not only cause physical side effects, but can influence a user's decision making ability. Individuals with normally good judgment have found themselves on the wrong side of the law without direct intention.
