FOX 10 Anchors Brian Webb and Ashlie Rodriguez talk with Arizona criminal defense attorney Benjamin Taylor about a case in Pinal County where a man was photographed sunbathing nude from the waist down.

"On December 19, PCSO received a report about an elderly man sitting in his driveway exposing himself without any underwear. A deputy arrived and talked to the 76-year-old who said he would not do it again. The deputy called Adult Protective Services to further investigate his mental state. No legal victims wanted to press charges. A neighbor who reported the incident said she did not want to press charges yet because her ‘intention was not to have an old man go to jail,’" the sheriff’s office said in various statements to FOX 10.

When FOX 10 asked why the man wasn’t charged with a crime if the deputy saw him nude, it said, "He used his discretion to not take an old man to jail. Arizona Adult Protective Services will be looking into his mental state further."
