As I mentioned right back at the start of the thread. One person saying something doesn't make it the truth.

Who says it's the member of staff that needs to be worried about getting prosecuted? Just saying...

I dunno, so lets say his flies were undone.. You know, sometimes I've not noticed my flies were undone, does that make me a criminal?

Unless his dick was hanging out, I reckon you'd be hard pressed to prove that his 'flies were undone deliberately' and if they were, what's the charge? 'flies undone' doesn't really cut it, its hardly indecent exposure.

Public order offence? You can pretty much get done for a public order offence if you wear socks that don't match, so that's always a safe bet.

I'm amazed that some posters in this thread (who should know better )have jumped to so many conclusions .We have seen it hundreds of times in past threads where a news story has been quoted and pretty much the opposite has been shown to be true ,i' not saying that is the case here but it was blatently obvious from the original story that there was more to this than originally printed

you might make the olympics if you jump to conclusions a bit higher :rolleyes:

remember other members of the public have complained as well

Question.Did anyone tell him his flies were undone at any point?

Because I would have said something.;)

If it's suspect when a man taking pictures of his daughter has his fly open. does that mean the equivalent for a woman is having an extra button on her blouse undone, or will we go by her skirt being shorter than an agreed length?

and will the paranoid get confused and flappy if the child is the same sex as the defendant?
