Today in Ohio, USA, a repeat public indecency offender, who has a “fascination for plastic,” found himself behind bars after allegedly engaging in sexual acts with a neighbor’s pink inflatable pool raft.
32-year-old Edwin Charles Tobergta was taken into custody on Sunday at his residence in Hamilton, Ohio, located to the north of Cincinnati, after the shocked owner discovered him in the act.
Upon being spotted, the owner reportedly yelled at Tobergta, prompting him to flee with the pool float.
When officers apprehended Tobergta, he pleaded with them not to send him to prison, indicating that he was acting out due to a personal problem and expressed the need for help, as referenced in the police report.
Having been arrested at least five times for comparable offenses, his grandmother emotionally stated that the family has attempted to seek mental health care for him.
“He has many mental issues, and he has always been fascinated by plastic,” she shared. “That’s really all there is to it. We have never been able to procure the proper care for Edwin. It feels like nobody cares.”
