Alan Petrusson Allegedly Tied Himself To A Tree With Genitals Exposed To Wait For Anonymous Sex



Alan Petrusson Tied To Tree
What does a guy have to do to get some anonymous sex these days?
Last week, Ramsey, Minn. police say, Alan Petrusson tied himself to a tree, put a blindfold on, exposed his genitals and waited for anonymous sex near a public park, according to CBS Minnesota.
"It's the weirdest thing I've heard of out there," Ramsey Police Chief James Way told The Huffington Post. "We have had reports of sexual activity out there though."
Way also said he's skeptical of Petrusson's assertion that he was just sleeping.
"I don't believe that," he said. "That's up to a judge and/or jury to determine, if it gets that far."
Way said Petrusson faces charges of indecent exposure, lewd conduct and trespassing, since the tree he was allegedly tied to was not on park property.
A park visitor who spoke to CBS Minnesota was none too pleased to hear that the park is being used for public sex.
"I really do not appreciate in-your-face-type behavior like that," the unidentified woman said.
The Coon Rapids Herald reported that the park has seen its share of unseemly incidents, including when a man reading a book in his car was disturbed by a man reaching into his window.

Terre'Blanche judgment to start

Ventersdorp - Rightwingers and curious onlookers have gathered outside the High Court sitting in Ventersdorp on Tuesday, awaiting to hear the fate of Eugene Terre'Blanche's two murder-accused.


Members of the Afrikaaner Weerstandsbeweeging (AWB) stood opposite the court, clad in camouflage uniforms and sporting flags and banners in support of Terre'Blanche.


Some of the banners read: "AWB stood the test of time" and "Long live the AWB".


On another corner, members of the rightwing Gelofte Volk, an AWB splinter group, were also gathered in support of Terre'Blanche.


Leader Andre Visagie said he had mixed feelings about what to expect.


Not optimistic 
"We are not really very optimistic that justice will be done."


Police and police vans lined the streets surrounding the court. Heavily armed officers stopped family members and media from entering the court until the last possible minute.


Members of the community were also gathered outside the court. Everyone was warmly dressed to fight off the winter cold which has taken hold of the North West town.


Judgment on the two accused, Chris Mahlangu and a youth, was expected to start at 09:00.


The pair are charged with beating Terre'Blanche to death in his farmhouse outside Ventersdorp on 3 April 2010.


Both have pleaded not guilty to murder, housebreaking, and robbery with aggravating circumstances. Mahlangu has claimed he acted in self-defence. The teenager has denied involvement in the crime.


Long judgment 


Mahlangu and the youth declined to testify and, in April, the trial was postponed for judgment.


"It is probably going to be a long judgment. So prepare yourselves for a long judgment," Judge John Horn told the State and the defence.


The youth turned 18 shortly after the proceedings were postponed.


On Monday, North West police said it was prepared for large crowds which might gather outside the court.


"Based on previous confrontations between the two groups outside the court, police are expecting even worse situations than the previous ones and are up to the task," Brigadier Thulane Ngubane said.
