An Ambler man who was arrested after taking sexual images of himself in a public park in Lower Gwynedd Township has been sentenced to probation as part of a plea agreement with prosecutors.
Kyle Jordan, 27, was sentenced last week to two years’ probation after pleading guilty to a pair of misdemeanor disorderly conduct charges, court records show. Two original charges of open lewdness and tampering with evidence were changed to the aforementioned disorderly conduct charges, and a summary disorderly conduct charge was dismissed as part of the agreement, court records show.
Sentencing conditions indicate Jordan is prohibited from visiting Pen Ambler Park and having contact with the victims. He will also undergo a psycho-sexual evaluation and must comply with any recommendations while on sex offender supervision.
Police were dispatched to the area of Pen Ambler Park at 12:18 p.m. on Sept. 7, 2022, for a report of a suspicious male. Arriving officers spoke with a mother who was on the playground with her children, who stated she saw a male — later identified as Jordan — stop along the trail and repeatedly exposed his buttocks, according to charging documents.
The woman stated she observed Jordan pulling down his sweatpants with his back turned towards her, then looked back towards her direction, police said. She also reported seeing Jordan placing his left arm down his pants, with his “forearm seeming to be moving forward and back,” according to the complaint.
Jorden allegedly pulled his pants up when he saw the woman on her phone, however as she collected her children to leave, he again pulled down his pants and got on his knees, police said.
Investigators located Jordan at the park, at which time he said he was taking pictures of himself to send to a friend, the report states. When asked to see the photos, Jordan allegedly pulled out his phone and deleted the images, then stated he was wearing women’s underwear and again asserted he took sexual images of himself to send to a friend, police said.
Jordan was interviewed two days later at the Lower Gwynedd Police Station, at which point he allegedly acknowledged observing seeing two men playing basketball and a mother with her two children at the time he was taking the photos. A review of Jordan’s email account on his phone showed that he sent three images to a friend in California — one standing, one seated on a bench and one on his knees — all with the park’s baseball diamond in clear view, police said.
On Sept. 20, 2022, Jordan was charged with misdemeanor counts of open lewdness and tampering with physical evidence, along with a summary count of disorderly conduct.
