John Marler (Credit: CCSO booking photo) A Cape Coral man said he was looking for “fun” and propositioned an undercover deputy at a Charlotte County park, according to the Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office. The deputy was part of an undercover operation Tuesday at Charlotte Flatwoods Environmental Park, where sex acts have been known to happen, when he encountered John Marler, 69. Marler was sitting on a picnic table when the deputy walked through, and a conversation ensued before the deputy walked on down the trail. He returned and another conversation began before the two walked down the trail. The sheriff’s office says that while the two were walking, Marler said he was looking for “fun” and knew of a hidden location away from the picnic table where “stupid people” get caught. During the conversation, Marler was pleasuring himself and removed his penis from his pants, then attempted to grab the undercover deputy’s genital area and pull down the zipper on his pants, the report states. At that time, Marler was taken into custody by additional deputies who were nearby assisting with the operation. Deputies located a condom and two different types of lubricants inside Marler’s backpack. He faces charges of exposure of sexual organs and battery by intentional touch or strike. He is being held in the Charlotte County Jail on $2,000 bond.
