What Indecent Exposure Means in Prince George’s County
Indecent exposure is treated as a criminal offense in Maryland, and a conviction can lead to a criminal record, incarceration, and mandatory registration as a sex offender. In Prince George’s County, these cases are prosecuted by the State’s Attorney for Prince George’s County and typically begin in the District Court of MD for Prince George’s County, located at 14735 Main Street, Upper Marlboro, MD 20772. If the charge is a felony or the defendant requests a jury trial, the matter moves to the Prince George’s County Circuit Court.
Prince George’s County is Maryland’s second-most populous county, encompassing communities such as Upper Marlboro, Bowie, College Park, Laurel, Hyattsville, Greenbelt, Largo, Fort Washington, Lanham, Clinton, Capitol Heights, Oxon Hill, and Suitland. The county sits directly adjacent to Washington, D.C., and its courts handle a significant volume of criminal cases. Mr. Sris and his Of Counsel, operating from the firm’s Rockville location, are familiar with the local judges, prosecutors, and procedures that shape how indecent exposure cases are handled in this jurisdiction.
Maryland’s sex offender registry consists of three tiers: Tier I requires registration for 15 years, Tier II for 25 years, and Tier III for life.

Concentrates on challenging the evidence, protecting the rights of the accused, and working toward outcomes that minimize collateral consequences.

Throughout the process, the Of Counsel team—which includes a former Maryland Assistant State’s Attorney—draws on firsthand knowledge of how prosecutors build these cases.
