Magistrates courts only have limited sentencing powers (usually 2 years max). If the accused are charged with a statutory offence that can carry a potentially longer term on first conviction and during the process plead not guilty, it has to go before a court with longer sentencing powers.

I'm afraid I must have an intimate first-hand examination of the evidence presented before I can make my verdict.

My guess is that:
A) He has a very dull job and leaps on any opportunity for action.
B) He is scared that he will get in to trouble if he doesn't report it and his boss sees it.

that's nonsense.

I believe that doing this joke is unaccpetable, for its nature. A 21-years old is supposed to be mature and able to determine good and evil, isn't it?

I know that they're doing this for fun, yet they've past through the bottom line. If others get offended, this act is definitely an offence. Perhaps the watchman has a (religious) belief that looking at others' breast in a sin. These two womans offended the watchman by showing him stuffs that he wasn't supposed to see, thus he gets angry and calls the police.

(I'm not trying to say that being a peeping Tom or whatsoever is totally acceptable)

See my post about some peoples need to have a log removed from their arse. Ayone who gets offended ennough to prosecute for something as trivial as this should not hold a job as being a cctv monitor in the first place.

If he was zooming in on the two girls before they flashed the camera and he had held them in focus for an extened period of time, he could be considered a peeping tom. If he was just paning across the beach, then the girls are at fault.
