For you Dave Barry fans out there:
In Ottawa, Canada, a man successfully appealed a conviction for indecency that resulted when he masturbated, fully illuminated in his living room, in front of a window. The act was clearly visible to his neighbors and their two young daughters. The complaining neighbors watched his performance from their darkened bedroom for ten or fifteen minutes, using binoculars and a telescope, before complaining to police. The appeals judge ruled that the man's conviction should be overturned because his home was not a public place and it could not be shown that he intended to give offense.

Hey if they had to use the aid of magnification, then they ought to be charged as peeping toms!
