A Mount Gambier man who has previously admitted going naked in two local food businesses has now pleaded guilty to another similar charge of indecent behaviour.<\/p>\n

Darrin Kingsley Brown, 54, had previously pleaded guilty<\/a> to two indecent behaviour charges relating to being nude while at a Subway restaurant in Mount Gambier on April 27 and at the OK Pie Shop on April 29.<\/p>\n

In the Mount Gambier Magistrates Court on Friday, he admitted to what his lawyer John Kyrimis told the court was “similar offending” at an OTR petrol station in Mount Gambier on May 24.<\/p>\n

He also pleaded guilty on June 2 to an indecent behaviour offence that occurred at the Surfers Way Beach in Port MacDonnell on December 17 last year.<\/p>\n

The court heard Brown was in the Royal Australian Navy from the late 1980s through into the 1990s and served in the Gulf War in 1991.<\/p>\n

Mr Kyrimis said Brown was later diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder.<\/p>\n

He said Brown’s wife left him last November, which he took “very, very badly”.<\/p>\n

Mr Kyrimis applied for his client’s case to be heard in the new South Australian Veterans Court, which he said was almost “purpose-built for his needs”.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“In my submission, this is a matter where getting him the ongoing treatment, the structure and support that he needs is likely to be beneficial both to him and the community at large,” Mr Kyrimis said.<\/p>\n

Magistrate Kylie Schulz agreed that the matter was suitable to be handled by the veterans court at its first hearing, to be held in Elizabeth next month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Mount Gambier man who has previously admitted going naked in two local food businesses has now pleaded…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":52691,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[22,21,39788,39783,33821,3271,33825,39787,39784,39785,39786],"class_list":["post-52690","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-australia","tag-au","tag-austrlia","tag-bet","tag-darrin-kingsley-brown","tag-man","tag-mount-gambier","tag-naked","tag-nude","tag-ok-pie-shop","tag-subway","tag-surfers-way"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52690","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52690"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52690\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52691"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52690"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52690"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52690"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
