In Maryland, indecent exposure is the intentional exposure of one's genitals or buttocks in a public place or in front of others in a way that causes alarm, distress, or offense. It is classified as a misdemeanor, punishable by up to 3 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $1,000. If the offense involves a minor or occurs in certain aggravating circumstances, the penalties can be more severe, and a conviction may require sex offender registration.
