When this goes to court. It will be dismissed. He was in his hotel room not in public. The girl was 17 well above the age of consent and technically not a minor except for alcohol purchase which is why no charges related to a child were included. He had no prior knowledge of her age even and therefore there is no element of knowingly exposing to a child. If she was a child. But by law she is not. MA allows open nudity in public as long as an attempt to conceal yourself is made. This is case law for all the people engaging in sexual activity in rest areas and other public places. Which is illegal in theory but thanks to liberal judges is not easily enforceable. He will claim he had a bathrobe on in his hotel room and was just getting his food. An accident. And if he didn’t touch himself it will be an accident. He will probably file a lawsuit against the police for arresting him and giving the story to the press so he can be publicly humiliated for what will amount to a dismissal. As far as his job, at most it will be reduced to a misdemeanor indecent exposure and not a felony which will mean he keeps his job.

He doesn’t make a great case for attempting to cover up when he’s still exposed when responding officers arrive.

What your missing is that if he’s in his room he’s not exposed to the public. There is no law against waking around naked or partially dressed inside your hotel room or any other place you have a reasonable expectation of privacy. When he opened the door and she saw him. Maybe he’s a nudist. I’m just being the devils advocate. What’s right and moral is not always the same as legal or not. Yes his accidental with the police could be tough but you would have to prove he’s in public and hotels that have a locked door and a desk that only allows guests of the hotel is not technically a Public place. So the hotel would have to tell him to stop and evict him. Arresting him was probably a mistake by the law. This is just my opinion as a retired police office
