FULLERTON – Former El Modena High School Principal Brent Bailey, 56, was convicted today of masturbating in a public park in the middle of the day in front of a police officer. Bailey pleaded guilty to the court to one count of engaging in lewd conduct. He was sentenced to three years probation and was ordered to stay away from Brea Dam Trails park, successfully complete a Sex Offenders Solutions program, and take AIDS education classes.
On December 27, 2006 at 2:30 p.m., Bailey was at the park Brea Dam Trails on Harbor Boulevard in Fullerton. Bailey was standing outside on a trail and began touching himself over his clothing as a plain clothes police officer was approaching. Bailey then removed his penis from his pants and began to masturbate in public. The officer asked Bailey to go with him to the parking lot, where Bailey was cited and released.
Senior Deputy District Attorney Rebecca Olivieri of the Special Prosecutions Unit prosecuted this case.
