    When I first heard the story I called my brother to see if he was the bait. I received the brotherly response of "F@!# You D!#k". :)

    "The men were arrested during a two day undercover investigation on Oct. 20 and 21 on the Maumee River Public Access Site in Allen County, just outside Woodburn. According to a release from the DNR, the men exposed themselves and/or fondled conservation officers dressed in plain clothes."

    I'm really struggling to understand this "new normal". When is what transpires between two consenting adults okay, and when isn't it?

    How do you come up with a 'battery' charge for this? These 'undercover' guys go hang out with a bunch of guys who are known to do this in a place where they're known to do it [consensually], then press charges for battery?

    It usually involves a non consensual un-discussed dick grab. Kinda like chatting up a chick you met online and deciding to start wooing her with a boob squeeze.

    Apparently it is the Sex Panther of gay hookup moves....

    In Indiana, a person commits the crime of misdemeanor battery by intentionally or knowingly touching someone else in a rude, insolent, or angry manner. If the touching was unexpected or unwelcome I could see where it would be appropriate. It says the investigation was started after receiving complaints, maybe some of the fellas involved were a little on the aggressive side.

    This happens all the time. My wife's cousin goes undercover for these stings in IL. My BIL backed in to a spot at a forest preserve waiting for his brother to go shed hunting. Men in cars keeped pulling in next to him and starring him down. This is the hangout.

    There is a local public fishing access overrun with the same problem. Apparently there are gay public hookup websites mapping where to go. There is a mall family bathroom that is apparently also on these sites. The fishing area gets a sting every year or two as they often are very aggressive and people there just to fish get grabbed etc. I have no problem with battery charges on these.

    Geeze. I sincerely regret asking.

    Nevertheless, thanks for the info, guys.

    I remember something similar years ago near Nineveh where my Grandparents live. The guy who owned a local bait shop I'd been going in to for years got busted. I sure never expected to see him caught up in something like that.

    I know who you are talking about, he was the DNR's public enemy No. 1 for many years. Always with the ginseng and furs. They set up a controlled buy of an "untanned beaver" on him one time. He is dead now.

    Ok, when I saw the DNR was involved in such a sting I was expecting something entirely else, like the guy who was, um, exerting himself over the corpse of a roadkill deer down in the ditch. This is... somewhat (!) less disturbing.

    Hey, I remember as a kid back in the 70s going to a bait shop in Nineveh many times. Don't reckon it was the same guy?

    They did one down here on the east side... Skiles Test Park.

    Protip: Dont back into the spaces there. That's apparently the signal that you arent there to go hiking.
