Former mayor arrested for public nudity

Luckily every time that I've been camping, I've never seen anyone lounging around naked. So it's a good thing that I wasn't camping in Rabun County.

Authorities arrested Mark Musselwhite and charged him with public indecency last weekend after state Department of Natural Resources officers found him sitting nude at his Rabun County campsite.

Officers had received a complaint about a naked man walking along a nearby road earlier in the day, but the 43-year-old Musselwhite said he was not the same man. Musselwhite told the DNR officer he had been swimming in a nearby creek.

Musselwhite was the mayor of Gainesville. He had a failed state senate run as well, and that will probably be his last elected run.
