A naked man living in a trailer who gave himself a spongebath in a carpark opposite an Auckland primary school has had an offensive behaviour charge quashed. At the time, Mr Ker was living in his Isuzu truck and trailer in a carpark overlooked by classrooms at East Tamaki Primary School. Mr Ker's nudity did not reach the standard of revulsion or loathing required for obscenity and the conviction was quashed. However, he considered young primary school children should not be potentially subjected to men exposing their genitals and convicted Mr Ker of offensive behaviour. Mr Ker said he had been working and was simply cleaning himself after he became hot.
