"Charles Porter was arrested July 20 in Seattle for investigation of indecent exposure. Police believe Porter, 42, stalked women on the freeway while he drove from his home in Kent to his job at an Everett aerospace company. He allegedly exposed himself to the women and made gestures, attempting to get them to expose themselves, too — all at freeway speeds.
Snohomish County Superior Court Judge Michael Downes on Wednesday ordered Porter held without bail pending a hearing next week to revoke a suspended sentence stemming from a 2008 conviction for indecent exposure."
