Anon, the $50,000 bail was pretty high for a nonviolent, noncontact offense – relatively speaking, having covered “the system” for a while – but apparently he had the means to get it covered. There are serial-burglary suspects we are still covering who had bail set in that vicinity and they couldn’t muster it, because they’re still in. The question now, though, is what kind of timetable the prosecuting attorney’s office will work on regarding charges – I hope to find out much more tomorrow. Including whether the guy was required to register before they let him out. I don’t know if the registry updates on weekends but we’re checking, checking .. TR

The perv is a known sex offender. He commits another offense, in addition to failing to register – and he’s out in less than 24 hours? It seems like nothing short of murder will get you jail time in Seattle, maybe not even then.

I’ve added a note to the story, but for anyone just checking back on comments – the indecent-exposure suspect has posted bond on $50,000 bail and was released Saturday night after a little more than 24 hours.

I don’t know anyone on my street who has been prowled. You almost the exception if you haven’t been. I have been three times, and I live a few blocks from PCC.

If I had any of that confirmed, I would have included it. I spent two hours looking everywhere in the system for anything more that could be added, before hitting “publish.” He is not in the system, which likely would be the reason he is under investigation for “failure to register.” On Monday, we’ll be able to reach prosecutors among others and there should be a lot more info available. I don’t see any recent arrest record, though; there are no online documents for the case that might be responsible for his offender status, since it was from more than a decade ago. – TR

I hope you can put a name and face on the blog soon so we all know who he is. Clearly this guy would’ve eventually harmed a child if he got the chance. Has he ever registered as a sex offender? What will he serve for this? What area does he live in too please?
