Man Cops To Tool Time In Lowe's Display Shed
Perp, 66, was caught pleasuring self at retailer
JULY 16--With no defense at hand, a man has pleaded guilty to an obscenity charge for pleasuring himself inside a storage shed for sale at a Lowe’s in Louisiana.
George Kalliavas, 66, copped to the felony charge during a District Court hearing Monday, records show.
Pictured above, Kalliavas was locked up on $15,000 bail after his May 11 arrest at the Lowe’s outlet in Slidell, a city in St. Tammany Parish. He was released from custody following his July 14 guilty plea.
As detailed in a Slidell Police Department report, cops responded to the home improvement store upon receiving a 911 call from a store manager about “a male subject naked inside a shed for sale in the Lowe’s parking lot.”
During a canvas of the storage sheds, Officer Bryan LeBlanc discovered Kalliavas “lying in a supine position on the floor of the shed beneath the window.” Kalliavas’s pants and underwear were at his ankles and he “was using his left hand to touch his exposed penis.”
Completing the picture, LeBlanc noted that there was “an open tub of Vaseline petroleum jelly to the immediate left of Kalliavas’s person. Kalliavas was watching an unknown video on his cellular phone, and he had headphones in his ears.”
After being handcuffed and read his rights, Kalliavas advised that he had been “jacking off” inside the enclosure, one of several sheds Lowe’s “had on display for sale.” While customers are “free to browse these sheds,” Kalliavas “had no reasonable expectation of privacy inside of the subject shed,” LeBlanc reported.
