A Utah woman charged with a crime after her stepchildren saw her topless in her own home is fighting the case that could force her to register as a sex offender, citing a court ruling that overturned a topless ban in Colorado
1 / 2Topless In Own HomeTilli Buchanan is seen in Judge Kara Pettit's Third District Courtroom with her attorney Randy Richards, Nov. 19, 2019. Her attorneys Leah Farrell with the American Civil Liberties Union of Utah and Randy Richards argued on her behalf that Utah's lewdness statute is unconstitutional because it discriminates against women.
Judge Kara Pettit heard the case Tuesday but said it was “too important of an issue” to decide immediately. She plans to rule in the coming months. Buchanan was charged with three counts of misdemeanor lewdness involving a child in February. It came after child welfare officials began an investigation involving the kids that wasn’t tied to Buchanan and the children’s mother reported the incident to authorities because she was “alarmed.”“It was in the privacy of my own home. My husband was right next to me in the same exact manner that I was, and he’s not being prosecuted,” she said after the court hearing.
