Lawyer of Accused Tutu Flasher Says His Client Was Wearing Underwear While Exposing Himself



There's nothing like getting caught with your pants...er...tutu down.

While it may be embarrassing, the attorney of a man accused of flashing a local salon says baring your balls from underneath a tutu is hardly indecent exposure. After all, his client, who has been accused of doing just that, had on some sort of "shielding" undergarment, too.

That accused tutu flasher is 51-year-old Richard James Staples, owner of a pest control business in Huntsville. Staples appeared in a Harris County court Tuesday on charges stemming from accusations that he flashed clients of a salon in Spring while wearing only a tutu, bustier, fishnets and stilettos.

Deputies say they were called to the Regency Hair Salon in North Harris County November 12th after a number of people reported a tutu-clad man exposing his genitals and buttocks. The incident was caught on tape by one woman, during which a man in a bustier and thigh-high fishnets can be seen walking toward a large red truck with his entire ass exposed.

According to police, they identified Staples after his massive red truck and that pesky unique license plate number were found on footage from security cameras at surrounding businesses. Three of the victims were also able to identify Staples from photo spreads, police say.

I'm making it through day by day. I met with the psychiatrist that is contracted by Social Security about my disability claim last week and he is going to try again to get me approved. Not very much is occurring otherwise.

I did check out the video earlier and now I'm wondering if kilts will ever come back into fashion again.

Of course, he could opt for neither.

Like during the 1974 Academy Awards when the unflappable David Niven utterly ridicules a streaker running across the stage on worldwide live television.



This is a brilliant take down of a silly stunt.

And David Niven was a great one.

Updated with a shorter uninterrupted clip. (Why, oh why would anybody need to interrupt this moment with useless commentary? Like David Nicen cannot speak for himself.)
