Molino Man Busted For Indecent Exposure After Incident With Woman, Underage Girl

April 24, 2009

A Molino man has been arrested and charged with indecent exposure after exposing himself to a local woman and her underage daughter.

Deputies received a complaint from a female resident on Highway 95A near Marge Lane that a black male was exposing his private organs and giving a “free show” late Wednesday afternoon, according to Lt. Tony Jordon with the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department.

The woman decided, Jordan said, to provide deputies with evidence of the crime. She hid in a nearby barn and took several “really good” pictures of the incident, and she provided deputies with the photos. Deputies identified Blackshear from the photos, and an arrest was made. The victim that took the photographs was able to positively identify Blackshear, Jordan said. Her underage daughter, who also witnessed the exposure incident, was not able to make a positive identification. If the underage victim had been able to identify the suspect, he could have faced felony charges.

“He (Blackshear) told us that he was urinating,” Jordan said, “but that is not what the victim told us he was doing.”

Deputies say Blackshear may have exposed himself 20 or more times since June of last year, based upon complaints from the area. Most of the time, the suspect has been wearing a hood or other covering over his head at the time of the incident. In a recent incident, someone matching his description exposed themselves to a postal worker delivering mail in the area.

Blackshear was booked into the Escambia County Jail on $20,000 bond.

    If the police knew who he was and the mother knew who he was, then he should have been charged with a felony, it is our young ones we need to worry about, they did not say how old the child was.

    It’s really a shame the juvenile could not make a positive i.d. Perhaps felony charges would have drawn a harsher sentence.

    Sure seems like the Molino Deputies sure have earned their paycheck these last few months…….2 different Burglary rings broken up, shooting suspects captured., The Home invasion on Molino Rd solved with an arrest. and now this pervert is off the street at least for a little while until a Judge gives him a small fine.
