A deputy with the Huron County Sheriffs Office has been charged with three counts of aggravated indecent exposure after he was accused of exposing himself multiple times to a Port Austin woman. Patrick OBrien was arraigned Thursday on the charges following an investigation by Michigan State Police and reviewed by the Attorney Generals Office, according to a press release. The incidents occurred between July 26 and 27 in Port Austin when OBrien reportedly exposed himself multiple times intentionally and masturbated in an area visible to the public through a window of his home. He was off duty at the times of the reported incidents, the press release read. OBrien was placed on administrative leave.
