Serial sex offender, Marcus Anthony Cook, has avoided a prison sentence after claiming that he was unaware his penis was exposed in public – UKNIP

Cook was spotted by a dog walker standing in a park with his hands on his hips and his genitals hanging out of his unzipped flies. Due to his previous offences, a court had previously ordered Cook to always have two articles of clothing covering his private area.

However, Cook argued that on April 27, his clean pants were at the launderette, which is why his penis was visible in Poverest Recreation Ground in Orpington. He claimed that he must have forgotten to zip up his trousers after using the toilet. Bromley Magistrates’ Court accepted this explanation on July 19 and instead issued Cook a community order rather than a prison sentence.
