Sex offender pleads guilty to indecent exposure for Palm Desert flashing
A convicted sex offender who exposed himself at Palm Desert Civic Center Park pleaded guilty today to a felony indecent exposure charge.
Cody Edwin Larson, 26, is slated to be sentenced next month.
On July 9, a witness reported seeing a man, later identified as Larson, exposing himself at the park around 6:20 a.m. The flasher fled prior to the arrival of sheriff’s deputies, but was arrested the following morning on San Pablo Avenue.
Court records show Larson has a misdemeanor indecent exposure conviction stemming from his arrest last Nov. 6 on Portola Avenue in Palm Desert. He pleaded guilty in May and was sentenced to one year in county jail, but was released with credit for time served.
