In another “what’s-wrong-with-the-Tampa-Bay-area” story, a 59 year old Lakeland man was arrested for Lewd Conduct after employees at the Lakeland Public Library reported that a man was acting suspiciously. The police were called out to the library and found Johnney Keen sitting at a table in the libary. A few moments later, officers observed Keen, who was holding a book as a distraction while watching young girls at the library, begin to put his hand inside his shorts and fondle himself.For the complete story, please read the original Bay News 9 story.
Police then requested permission from Keen to search his home. Note to all current and future clients: DO NOT GIVE LAW ENFORCEMENT CONSENT TO SEARCH YOUR HOME WITHOUT SPEAKING WITH AN EXPERIENCED CRIMINAL ATTORNEY.
