A serial sex offender who failed to convince a jury he could not be a flasher because his genitals were too small was jailed for 20 months.
Michael Carney, a married 41-year-old father of two, claimed he was too embarrassed about the size of his manhood to expose himself to women - and showed the jury at Teesside Crown Court photos as proof.
He was convicted in November of seven counts of outraging public decency and was also sentenced for four
counts of indecent assault which he admitted earlier.
comment: I find it interesting that to defend against the allegation that he showed his genitals in public, the defendant feels it necessary to show the jury pictures of his genitals.
