Gloucester Police Court: … A Rogue and Vagabond: Edward Sidney Pinsent, young man of Coney Hill, was charged on remand with indecently exposing himself in the public street on May 23rd – Mr. W. Langley- Smith appeared for prisoner, who pleaded not guilty. — A young lady said the prisoner followed her down through the town on the night in question at about eleven o’clock, and when near her home he got in front of her, stood in the roadway and committed the offence she complained of. — Mr. Langley-Smith pleaded that prisoner was weak minded and said he had suffered from a complaint which made him unable to control himself; but a previous conviction at Bristol or like offence on June 4th, 1898, was put in, when the prisoner was fined £2 and costs. — The Bench sentenced the prisoner to a month’s hard labour as a rogue and vagabond. Other cases were withdrawn by the D.C.C. on a conviction being registered, though he said there were many similar cases.
