Indecent Exposure Lawyer in Denver
Grounded Guidance for Clients Throughout Metro Denver and Across the Front Range
Realizing you are under investigation or facing charges for indecent exposure is an intimidating experience. Many people mistakenly assume this charge is a minor citation similar to jaywalking or simple littering.
In reality, Colorado treats this as a serious sex offense. Long before your initial court date, a mere accusation can create a social stigma, trigger employment suspensions, and disrupt your personal relationships.
Trying to explain your side of the story to local police officers is a significant risk. They aren’t looking for context to dismiss the matter; they are collecting evidence to secure a conviction and may later use your words against you.

Understanding Indecent Exposure Under Colorado Law
In Colorado, indecent exposure is strictly governed under C.R.S. § 18-7-302. A person commits this offense if they knowingly expose their genitals to another person under circumstances likely to cause affront or alarm, with the specific intent to arouse or satisfy the sexual desire of any person.
The statute also applies if an individual knowingly performs an act of masturbation in view of another person, regardless of whether the genitals are fully exposed or covered by clothing.
Because it is classified as a sex offense, the penalties are severe.
- Class 1 misdemeanor (first and second offenses): A standard baseline charge carries a maximum of 364 days in county jail and fines up to $1,000.
- Class 6 felony (third or subsequent offenses): If a person has two prior convictions for this offense or a comparable out-of-state charge, the third offense escalates to a Class 6 felony. This carries a sentence of up to 18 months in state prison.
