Jays' McGuire fined after pleading no contest to disorderly conduct charge

CLEARWATER, Fla. - Toronto Blue Jays catcher Reese McGuire has pleaded no contest to a disorderly conduct charge - a second-degree misdemeanour - and paid fines totalling US$500 stemming from a February incident in Florida.

 

His Tampa-based lawyer, Wes Trombley, confirmed the plea Monday and said the case was resolved last week.

 

McGuire originally faced an indecent exposure charge after deputies were dispatched to a shopping centre parking lot in Dunedin on Feb. 7 following reports that a man sitting inside an SUV was exposing himself, according to a Pinellas County Sheriff's Office news release.

 

Deputies said they spoke with McGuire, who was co-operative and did not deny the allegations.

 

He was charged with a misdemeanour count of exposure of sexual organs, was given a notice to appear in court and was not taken to jail.

 

The charge was later reduced to disorderly conduct and formally processed last Thursday, according to the Pinellas County Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller's office.
