A MAN has been charged with seven counts of indecent exposure following a detailed investigation into incidents in Chafford Hundred.
Back in October, we issued a public appeal for witnesses following reports of incidents whereby a man exposed himself to women in the area.
As our investigation progressed, it was established we were dealing with seven similar reports between 18 and 19 October.
Thanks to continued enquiries and the help of the public, an arrest was made.
Charges have since been secured against Michael Sode, 37, of Drake Road, Chafford Hundred.
He is next due to appear at Chelmsford Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday 14 January.
Detective Chief Inspector Alan Blakesley said:
“I hope this reassures the public and those who have reported incidents to us that we’ve taken this really seriously.
“I would like to thank those who came forward to provide information and help us progress our investigation.”
