Flasher cut clothing to expose himself


A SERIAL flasher who targeted victims in shops, a country park and on their doorsteps, has been jailed for two years. Snodland’s Robert Jenner ar-


gued he was an innocent naturist, but a jury at Canterbury Crown Court found him guilty on 10 counts of indecent exposure. His trial heardthat, inDecember


2017, while working as a delivery driver in Maidstone, he ap- proachedcustomerswhilewearing clothing that left him deliberately exposed. The following month, he made


two trips to a supermarket inLark- field wearing trousers with mate- rial missing. During one visit, shocked staff refused to serve him. Police say that, on repeatedocca-


sions, the 44-year-oldwas also seen in Leybourne Lakes Country Park, wearing see-through shorts. He was seen running past areas fre- quented by families and children.


Jenner’s flashing spree ended in


September last year, when he en- tered two shops in Maidstone, wearing “see-through tights”. Police caught him, still in the in-


criminating clothing, as he tried to leave a town centre car park in his van.Hewas arrested, charged and remanded in custody, pending trial.

PC Robert Fagg said: “Jenner


claimed he was simply a naturist, and would argue there was noth- ingwrongwith his behaviour. “The reality is that he manipu-


lated and altered clothing to delib- erately expose himself. “When working as a delivery


driver hewould ensure hewas ex- posed whilst asking customers to sign for parcels. “His intention to shock and pro-


voke has also been repeatedly demonstrated in a supermarket as well as at locations where there would have been children. “Jenner’s actions haveultimately


causedfear,distress andanxiety to a number of victims and he is now paying the price with a custodial sentence.” In addition to jail, Jenner, of Bin-


gley Close, Snodland, was also addedto the sex offenders’ register for 10 years andmade subject to a criminal behaviour order for seven.
