Serial butt sniffer arrested in California

Thought you might want to know the stores of California are now a little bit safer.

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/crime/butt-sniffer-california-arrest-b2796097.html

A registered sex offender in California was arrested again on Tuesday after allegedly sniffing a woman’s rear end at a Nordstrom Rack in Burbank.

(Name redacted) The Glendale man was detained after a report of a suspicious man loitering in the women’s department of a Nordstrom Rack at the Empire Center on North Victory Place.

Security footage showed him following a female shopper before crouching behind her and appearing to sniff her buttocks, authorities said.

(He was found in a nearby store following other women…)

He is on active parole and is a registered sex offender with a history of similar “lewd conduct” in Glendale and Burbank dating back to 2021, police said.

My daughter shopping with me was about 14 at the time. She thought it was funny. I told her if it’s so funny she could sit down and try on some shoes. We were outta there in a flash!
