Christopher Peter Hawkins, a violent male transvestite, was convicted of indecent exposure and assault at Poole Magistrates’ Court  in January 2020.

Hawkins escaped a prison sentence, instead receiving a community order with a programme requirement for 35 days, a rehabilitation activity requirement for 25 days and 120 hours of unpaid work. He was also ordered to pay a £90 surcharge and £85 costs.

Dorset Police received a number of calls on 14 September 2019 regarding a man wearing a bra and women’s underwear who indecently exposed himself at the Creekmoor Ponds nature reserve.

Hawkins, 38 was arrested at the scene and was released under investigation as officers continue their inquiries. In court Hawkins also admitted assaulting a man by beating him at the reserve on the same day.
