Milne claimed that he did nothing wrong. He said that he was feeling uncomfortable and itchy. Therefore, he unzipped his pants and used a little shampoo to soothe the groin area because he had no cream.
Prosecutor Camille Gifford said that public indecency does not depend on what his intent was when he rubbed himself, whether it was for pleasure or not. He exposed himself in front of a full bus of people.
“In essence, the defendant was masturbating on the bus. He had his zipper undone and rubbed his exposed private parts,” Gifford said.
According to police, Milne claimed that he was not masturbating and was resentful that everyone on the bus ganged up on him.
Milne, represented himself in court and pleaded guilty to the charge of public indecency.
He said: “I do not dispute that what they did was wrong, but keep in mind that I was discreet.”
He was ordered to pay $280 in fines.
