"Of course when a naked lady walks by, it's hard to see anybody
else... except where's the cop?" Wallace Baine said.
That question of course is answered by the photograph sent to the
Sentinel by a reader showing a police officer on a bicycle riding
past the woman as if she were, well, clothed.
According to the California Penal Code, indecent exposure
is a misdemeanor, but according to case law simply walking
down the street naked doesn't meet the elements of the penal code.
"We can't arrest that person right there. that is not against the law
But Santa Cruz police spokesman Zach Friend said "If we gave a
citation for every one of Santa Cruz's idiosyncrasies, we'd be
swimming in an ocean of citations."
....
the second photo is after the policeman on the bike simply passed
her and both went on their merry way."

people
could walk around in the nude, maybe it was New Hampshire.

Watch out for liberals. They haven't been getting culled
enough recently.
