Man arrested for being seen naked at home.

A man charged with indecent exposure for making a cup of coffee naked in his kitchen faces a possible prison sentence.
The 29-year-old Virginia man was standing naked in his kitchen making a cup of coffee one morning when a woman and her 7-year-old son passed by his window and saw him.
Apparently upset at the harm done to her child, she reported the incident to police, who came running to arrest the deviant.
He admitted being naked in his own home:
“Yes I wasn’t wearing any clothes but I was alone, in my own home and just got out of bed. It was dark and I had no idea anyone was outside looking in at me.”
“I am a loving dad. Any of my friends and anyone knows that and there is not a chance on this planet I would ever, ever, ever do anything like that to a kid.
I never had a conversation with anyone, never saw anyone. Didn’t cross my mind, came and got coffee. I mean if I stood and seemed comfortable in my kitchen possibly it’s natural. It’s my kitchen.”
Police say he was arrested because they suspected him to be an exhibitionist.
If convicted he faces a fine and up to a year in prison; he denies the charges and is seeking redress from police.

What are you thoughts on this? Personally I walk around my apartment in the nude sometimes, it's refreshing especially when the weather is extremely humid. Of course I close my blinds so I wouldn't get into a situation like this guy. However I find being arrested for being naked in his own home ridiculous. Seriously some people abuse the justice system.

Sorry guys, but this is just another proof of The UStupidity. Seriously, this can't happen anywhere else, could it?
If I was in his situation, I would sue that bitch for invading my privacy.

I'd like to point out this happened at 5:30 in the morning. I don't know what the hell that lady and her kid were doing at the time in the morning.

Why haven't the guy counter sued her for being a peeping tom who was attempting to try catch him in a nude to abuse the law system. There's so many things wrong with this, to see him nude in a dark kitchen she must've has trespassed his lawn and put her face to the window, no?
Is it not possible to counter sue her?

Though I'm not very clear with the law, I don't think he'll get anytime in prison.
First of all, he's innocent until proven guilty, unless they find some evidence in his home to highly suggest his exhibitionism.
Second, it's dark and it's 5:30, why can't he be at ease in the comfort to his own home alone at the time, how on earth did she get such a clear view of it unless she was within 20ft?
At this day and age, I'm sure there's much worse things than a nude man making coffee in his own home, nitpick on the normal citizens while ignoring much bigger issues at hand.

I'm not very clear with the law.True.
Since he has already admitted to his crime (and what's worse, coram publico), he's ready to be crucified in a court of law.
Even if he doesn't get jail time, as long as he's convicted, he's gonna be registered as a sex offender and can pretty much go kiss a train.

She isn't even the plaintiff in the case. The public prosecutor is suing the defendant, because the defendant's being charged by the state with indecency. Why you would (or would even be able to) "counter-sue" her is beyond me.

Oh how woe is the western world is today.
Laws about peoples morals and rights have turned into the new play thing for western governments.

My heart goes out to the guy
He was naked in his own home and a women looking in has put him in a situation where he could spend 1 year in prison.
WTH

In summer, when I'm alone, I'm often naked around the house myself. I often forget to close the blinds too, but so far nothing yet. ^_^;;

Agreed, what kind of woman takes her child out at 5am in the morning?

Ridiculous indeed. Being arrested at your home for being naked while you do not mean any harm at all that is.
Is it not possible to counter sue her?
The 1 million question. If there's someone suspicious, it's that woman. It's dark and from a considerable range, how in how did she see him clearly like that if not by getting nearer?
Law these days hath forgotten the true meaning of justice that it isn't even law anymore.
