My advice is dont tell the cops you belong to Truenudists, if they ever check the groups you belong to they might get the impression that getting caught nude in public is a fetish of yours. It would be a slam dunk for a prosecution.
During Covid I was charged with assault for rubbing my hand against someone's shoulder when I reached to get my umbrella. That was all. She had a record of reporting people on false charges and was apparently the victim of sexual abuse in her marriage. There are a lot of weirdos out there. My advices is: 1) don't say anything 2) get a lawyer and 3) let things drag out and die as there's apparently nothing substantial.
Being a full time nudist, and with the understanding that what people wear on their parts is their business (with the exception of any jewelry which is worn inside an original-equipment orifice {that is factually a sex toy}), I don't knock people's taste in pubic adornment - in public. With the assumption that the reported nudist was hiking with some of his extraneous metal parts in place (see photos in profile), the offended person who reported him to the police may have considered his very obvious penis jewelry as somehow offensive or of a sexual nature.
There is a presumption here that Washington State's population centers are generally more liberal regarding the laws which apply to simple nudism in public places. But by walking around nude with metal on genital, that type of jewelry does have a tendency to make the penis more pronounced, and in truth, can and will push the male parts upward, outward - even downward if they are weighted - from the pubic region. And whether this assumed-to-be-intentional augmentation of penile/scrotal size includes only momentum of the forward, upward or dangling kind, giving the body parts in question heightened visibility - or even further, if the wearer has donned multiple pieces of metallic jewelry, and with those added parts there is likely some attending noises produced by the, jingling and clinking and clanking together of the different metal attachments as the wearer walks or jogs - any unexpecting passerby will definitely take notice of the lack of clothes. To the surprised viewer (or listener), the additions to the man parts draw more attention to the hiker's nudity and brings forth the very likely misperception of lewd and lascivious conduct.
If there are future walks taken, and I suggest that this situation warrants a serious re-assessment of one's choice in venue when seeking the health benefits of natural hikes, it would be wiser to leave the hardware at home. If you live in bear country and you're attempting to scare any bears away from the trail with the clang of your cock rings, maybe it is time to consider an investment in a set of bear bells instead.
wildwilly........I take any and all help as well as criticism. I have always been the type of person that dangles on the edge of life so I appreciate what you're trying to say, and yes I do wear a cockring and am not ashamed of it nor apologize for it. And in this case, I entirely disagree with what ur saying!
Update.........I had my arraignment, have a date set for the next stage, and plan on having either a public defender with me, or my own council. It seems that a public defender is determined by income level, which the court said they would send me a form to submit for that. Still waiting!! If anyone reading this in the State of Washington has some legal counsel resources, I'm all ears :)
If someone are fondeling themselves, then that meets the criteria. Simple nudity does not
So if a person presented camera/video evidence of a person covering their genitalia because the person covering up with their hand didn't take to being stalked say by a neighbour. Surely the judge/prosecution wold need to see some form of real evidence of it, and if not then how would that be viewed?
You see using common sense, most everyday average people if naked in their own property grounds would put their hand(s) over their privates if it came to their attention they were being stalked.
