(WNY News Now) – Buffalo, NY – Acting Erie County District Attorney Michael J. Keane announces that a 50-year-old Buffalo man was arraigned Tuesday morning before Buffalo City Court Judge Rebecca Town on one count of Public Lewdness (Class “B” misdemeanor).
It is alleged that on Tuesday, March 5, 2024, at approximately 3:00 p.m., Buffalo Police responded to the area of Nottingham Terrace and Meadow Road at Delaware Park after receiving a call about indecent exposure.

Culverhouse is scheduled to return on Wednesday, May 8, 2024, at 9:30 a.m. for a pre-trial conference. He was released on his own recognizance as the charge is a non-qualifying offense for bail.

The case is being prosecuted by Assistant District Attorney Monica Benjovsky of the Buffalo City Court Bureau.
