Police field complaint about busty snow woman

ENT, Ohio - Crystal Lynn went for realism when she built her snow woman - celery for the eyes, a carrot for the nose and two blobs of snow for the breasts.

The last turned out to be a no-no, as someone complained to Kent police about what he called an indecent snow figure.

And a police officer showed up at her apartment door minutes after she completed her work.

"He said that I should cut off her breasts, but I said no woman wants that," Lynn, 35, said.

She didn't want to knock down the snow woman. And the figure was too busty to be covered by a shirt. So Lynn opted to drape a ruffled maroon tablecloth around her shoulders.

"She looked really good, like she was getting ready to go to a party," she said.

Kent Capt. James Goodlet said the incident began at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday with an anonymous call from a man about the "inappropriate snow figure" on First Avenue.

Goodlet said the officer didn't demand that Lynn alter her artwork, but she left the conversation thinking she would be arrested for disorderly conduct if she didn't comply.

"We would have had to have someone file a complaint," Goodlet said. "We wouldn't have charged at that. We were treating it almost as a neighborhood domestic situation."

He said the dispatcher considered the call to be serious - not a prank call.

But Lynn was flabbergasted.

"I didn't think there was anything inappropriate about it," said the self-described housewife. "I just wanted to play in the snow."

She said she called the police after the officer left. When she realized the officer was just passing on a caller's complaint, she took matters into her own hands, stripping the tablecloth off the snow woman so that she could be exposed in all her glory.

Goodlet said this may be the first time he's fielded a complaint about an indecent snow figure in his 26 years of police work. "They aren't one of our higher priorities," he said.

Lynn said she was insulted by the whole mess.

"It's just snow," she said.

Sounds like there must be some really bored people in Ohio if that's the biggest thing they have to worry about. How realistic could it have been? Next I guess we'll have a league against snow pornography. Maybe someone should make a male snowman. (insert joke about snowballs)

I am waiting for the ACLU to show up in an effort to protect the "Expression of Free Speech". Then they will try to get public tax dollars so that the "artist" can make more of them. Because the ACLU will protect any kind of free speech as long as it isn't religious speech.
