Convicted sex offender Kevin John Murphy was arrested by HCSO early a.m. this morning for PC 314 (1) indecent exposure. A google search shows Murphy arrested this year in February and March.
He was arrested for the same charge in 2014 by the Fortuna Police Department. The police responded after "customer of a local coffee shop observed a male subject standing near the business engaging in the act of masturbation.
Upon arrival, the officer observed Kevin Murphy standing near the Drive-Thru with his pants down and additional evidence indicating that Murphy had been engaging in the observed act. " FPD booked Murphy for indecent exposure and probation violation.
HCSO just sent out a press release about Murphy's arrest today which I added to the post.
