HILLSBORO (AP) — An Oregon judge has ruled that a 61-year-old man did nothing illegal when he crouched in the aisle of a Target store and snapped photos up a 13-year-old’s skirt. It was lewd and ap- palling, but not outlawed, Washington County Judge (ULF%XWWHU¿HOGVDLG “From a legal point of view, which unfortunate- ly today is my job to en- force, he didn’t do anything wrong,” the judge said Thursday. Patrick Buono of Port- land didn’t dispute using his cellphone to take upskirt photos on Jan. 3 at the store in suburban Beaverton, The Oregonian reported. But his defense law- yer, Mark Lawrence, ar- gued Buono didn’t violate the laws against invasion of privacy and attempted encouraging child sexual abuse, a child pornography count. The privacy law bans clandestine photography in bathrooms, locker rooms, dressing rooms and tanning booths, but the Target aisle was plainly public, Law- rence said. Upskirt sightings can occur by happenstance, he said, citing a famous pho- to of Marilyn Monroe with KHU GUHVV À\LQJ XS $QG that could happen to some- one riding up an escalator, taking a spill or exiting a car, he said. “These things are not only seen but video-record- ed,” Lawrence said. “It’s incumbent on us as citizens to cover up whatever we GRQ¶WZDQW¿OPHGLQSXEOLF places.” The privacy law also VSHFL¿HV QXGLW\ DQG WKH girl was wearing under- wear, Lawrence said.

Page 7A BRIEFLY Postman blames meth for mail thefts PORTLAND (AP) — The lawyer for a Postal Service employee who stole more than 30,000 pieces of mail from Portland residents told the judge his client was on “a two-year meth bender.” The judge sentenced 33-year-old John Paul Osburn to three years in prison Thurs- day after he pleaded guilty to theft and other charges. The Oregonian reports Osburn looked for birthday cards with cash or gift cards, mail-order medications and DVDs to fuel a drug habit. Police found out when a man bought the contents of an unpaid storage locker at auction and found stolen mail piled 5 feet high. The Postal Service went through the mail and de- livered it with notes telling recipients they were victims of mail theft. 6SULQJ¿HOGPDQ gets 18 months for VHWWLQJ¿UHWR$70 EUGENE, Ore.
