Robert Jenner was arrested on the high street in Maidstone while wearing see-through trousers, after boozing at Wetherspoon
A serial flasher who gained notoriety as “the naked carpenter” is back behind bars after breaching the sex offenders’ register by wearing see-through trousers.
Robert Jenner admitted to breaching the register three times just weeks after he was released from prison and has this week been handed another jail term.
The former soldier first made headlines in 2016 after deciding to do up his house in the nude, despite protests from outraged neighbours.
Since then, the 47-year-old has been in and out of court for a series of exposure offences. In 2019, Jenner was jailed for two years after committing ten exposure offences while working as a Hermes delivery driver and wearing a pair of jeans with a hole cut in the crotch.
The flasher was given a seven-year Criminal Behaviour Order (CBO) and was made to sign the sex offenders’ register for the next ten years.
Shortly after he was released from prison, Jenner threatened to sue a witness after tracking her down on social media.
Jenner was then arrested by police after they spotted him walking along a high street in Maidstone wearing see-through trousers, after a boozing session at a Wetherspoon.
Daniel Stevenson, prosecuting, said at the time: “The defendant was laughing, he called himself Mr Inappropriate. Officers asked if he was wearing anything under his trousers and he said ‘socks’.”
Jenner was jailed for a year for exposure, malicious communications, and breaching his CBO.
And he was once again made subject to a seven-year CBO and a ten-year notification requirement, which means he will have to report his whereabouts to the police and inform them of any change of address.
Prosecutor Lucy Luttman told the court that after being released from prison in April 2021, Jenner complied with the notification requirement and told police he was homeless.
But on May 16, he informed officers he had moved to an address on Tonbridge Road, which didn’t exist.
A week later, he arrived at the station a day late.
Luttman told the court that on one occasion Jenner arrived at the police station to sign the register and while doing so, he stripped and began to get naked, however, this was not considered a breach.
Nor did an occasion when he refused to speak. On June 20, he turned up at the station but complained that he did not agree with the Order.
Jenner then failed to show his face again and was arrested on July 1.
Luttman said: “He answered largely ‘no comment’ in (the) interview, but said he disputed the fact he was a registered sex offender and said he was insulted by the use of the term.”

Eve George, defending, told the court Jenner admitted to the offences at an early opportunity and had already spent five months in custody.
She said: “He served in the Army for ten years. It is possible he is suffering with some form of PTSD, and he will be seeking counselling.”
Judge David Griffith-Jones QC, who sentenced Jenner to ten months in jail for each offence to run concurrently, said: “It is apparent that you are contemptuous of the normal obligations of a person in modern-day society.”
He told Jenner he would serve up to half his term before being released and given his period already spent in custody, “it may be that you see yourself released very soon”.
Jenner, bearded and wearing a fleece, did not respond to the sentence as he watched proceedings take place from a room at Elmley men’s prison on the Isle of Sheppey.
