In Virginia, the debate continued Thursday over the arrest of a man who was making his morning coffee while nude inside his own home. The man's house is located across the street from a school bus stop and a neighbor saw him.
Now, 29-year old Eric Williamson is facing an indecent exposure charge and he said he was surprised by all of the fuss.
Williamson called himself a free spirit. The Virginia man is a commercial diver who grew up in Hawaii.
Williamson said walking around at home in the buff wasn't out of the ordinary for him, especially in the morning.
"It's my house. I am by myself. I make some coffee, I have no clothes on," said Williamson.
Monday morning, a neighbor walking her son to school said Williamson deliberately exposed himself, not once, but twice.
The neighbor said Williamson first exposed himself while standing in the glass doorway in the kitchen, then again at a front window.
Police say the incident happened shortly after 8:30 a.m.
"We've heard there may have been other people who had a similar incident," said Mary Ann Jennings of the Fairfax County Police Department.
The department spokesman said in a rare move the department released more information about the case.
"Because this was being spun into a national story and the idea you can't be naked in your own house, we wanted to come forward and say, in this case, our officers believed there was probable cause the law had been violated," said Jennings
Williamson has since moved out of the rental house he shared with several diving buddies.
By phone Wednesday Jennings, the father of a 5-year-old girl, maintained his innocence as he did earlier in an exclusive interview.
"I'm a loving dad any of my friends would tell you that. There is not a chance on this planet I would ever, ever do anything like that to a kid," said Jennings
Police wouldn't release the incident report or the name of the mother who filed the complaint, but it's believed the wife of a Fairfax County police officer filed the report.
