BARE BOOBS: Woman Sues NYPD For Not Letting Her Go Topless in Public
  • 11 years ago
A New York woman is suing the NYPD for denying her the right to bare her breasts in public. Jessica Krigsman was arrested in Brooklyn Park by officers after refusing to cover up while sunbathing topless. Krigsman told the officers it was her right to be topless, citing a 1992 NY Court of Appeals ruling stating the right to bare one’s chest in public is legal for a woman as it is for a man. She was arrested, charged with obstruction and held for 5 hours but the charges were dropped.
