Unpaid work for hoax-calling Perthshire OAP who exposed himself to police officer ‘because she was bonny’

A pensioner who urged a female police officer to investigate his private parts has been ordered to carry out unpaid work.

Kenneth Law admitted “wiggling his testicles” at the officer and was told to carry out 160 hours community payback.

The 69-year-old deliberately exposed himself to the officer then told her colleagues: “It’s because she’s bonny.”

He was also ordered to undergo alcohol treatment and social work supervision.

However, Sheriff Keith O’Mahoney said he could not be placed on the sex offenders register because he had not been jailed and his victim was not under 18.

Perth Sheriff Court was told police were in Law’s Crieff home on June 29 because he had made a series of hoax 999 calls. In one he demanded police help because he had “eaten a bad meal”.

Police attended and found there was nothing wrong. Around an hour later, Law phoned 999 again and claimed he was suffering from chest pains. An ambulance and police were dispatched.

Depute fiscal Robbie Brown said: “This time he was wearing nothing but boxer shorts.

“He told them he didn’t have chest pain but had pain in his testicles and they needed checked.

“He was checked over by paramedics and there was nothing untoward, so they left. Thereafter there was an exchange with police.”

Law admitted “repeatedly removing your penis and testicles from your boxer shorts, wiggling them and asking PC Elisabeth Sinclair to look at them.”

He also admitted making a series of hoax 999 calls from his home in Corlundy Crescent.
