My Predictions

Will another arrest be made in Germany before November involving naked hiking?

Settled as No

No news indicating another arrest has been made

Background:

Germany has a history of tolerating some public nudity but Siegfried Grawert found himself legally exposed for trouble when he was caught hiking in the buff.

Sent to jail after refusing to pay the 500 euro fine, he found sympathy. His 10 day prison stay was allowed in the nude since clothes depress him.

Naked hiking has apparently seen growth in popularity since the German Society of Nudists has joined the German Sports Association.

Siegfried Grawert vows to keep up the fight.


Settlement details: As reported by a major mainstream news source.
