Indecent Exposure Penalties

Individuals commit the offense of indecent exposure if they expose their anus or any part of their genitals with the intent to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of another person, and they are reckless about whether any person present is offended or alarmed by the act.

A person charged with indecent exposure faces a class B misdemeanor, which is punishable by a maximum jail sentence of 180 days and a fine of up to $2,000. However, if a person is charged with their second or subsequent indecent exposure offense, it is considered a class A misdemeanor, which is punishable by a maximum jail sentence of one year and a fine of up to $4,000.
