A home inspector in Michigan was subsequently prosecuted he reportedly masturbated with an Elmo doll while working in a child’s bedroom.

Kevin Wayne VanLuven, 59, of Clarkston, was charged with felony Wednesday for aggravated indecent exposure and malicious destruction of properties under $ 200, according to WJBK, a Detroit Fox affiliate. He was charged to Oakland County Jail on a bail bond of $ 2,500.

VanLuven, hired by home buyers to inspect a home in Oxford Township on March 12, was let in by the owners to the buyers’ estate agent, who left while the inspection was in progress.

The homeowners then called 911, and officers showed up while VanLuven was still carrying out the inspection.

“Just when I think I’ve seen it all, someone comes up and surprises me with a new level of disturbing action,” Sheriff Michael Bouchard said at a news conference.
