CITRUS COUNTY, Fla. — A man was arrested after deputies claimed he exposed himself to children while they were riding a school bus home on Thursday.
The Citrus County Sheriff's Office said several students told their parents that Freddy Richie Parisi, 36, was exposing himself in a car next to the bus.
According to deputies, one of the students submitted an anonymous tip, including a video of the incident and the vehicle he was driving, which included the tag number.
The parents also contacted CCSO immediately to report the incident, and deputies launched the investigation. A detective then identified Parisi from conducting sex offender checks. He then worked with school resource officers to identify the other victims who witnessed the incident.
Parisi was arrested for five counts of lewd and lascivious exhibition and is being held at the Citrus County Detention Facility without bond.
“You know, it might just be time we take a look if HOAs are really even necessary.
Maybe we should just do away with homeowner associations as a whole.”
South Florida lawmaker Rep. Juan Carlos Porras (R-Miami) says it may be time to do away with homeowners associations altogether, as more Floridians speak out about rising fees, costly lawsuits, and even arrests tied to HOA disputes. He said this week that he is considering filing legislation in the next session that would abolish HOAs statewide.
