Pretrial Probation for Engineer Charged With Open and Gross Lewdness

Our client is an engineer who owns a large corporation based in New York. In July of this year police were called after a woman claimed to see a man outside of his car wearing nothing but a thong and manipulating his genitalia while looking in her direction. The officers who responded questioned the man about the alleged sexual activities. He denied any overt sexualized behavior but he did admit to undressing down to the undergarments identified by the female collar. The officers took the man’s information and ultimately summoned him for an arraignment charging him with a felony, open and gross lewdness in violation of G.L. c. 272 section 16. Attorney Neyman was hired.  We had our client submit to an evaluation conducted by our forensic psychologist who determined that he is not a public safety risk nor does he present with any concerning sexual  mental health issues. That evaluation coupled with great character references and an extremely impressive work history satisfied the assistant district attorney that pretrial probation under G.L. c. 276 section 87 is the appropriate disposition. This case will be dismissed in a few months.
