Hamilton man has been arrested for public indecency multiple times.

Edwin Charles Tobergta III, 34, of Harmon Avenue, was arrested June 17 for allegedly stepping out his back door naked at about 1:20 p.m. June 15 and having “sexual relations with a rubber pool float,” according to a Hamilton police report.
Tobergta was indicted by a Butler County grand jury Wednesday for public indecency, a fifth-degree felony. If convicted, he faces 12 months behind bars.
Theresa Teague’s 10-year-old daughter was enjoying her new swimming pool June 15 when she ran back inside her house and said, “Edwin was doing something weird out there,” the Hamilton resident told the JournalNews Thursday.
Tobergta was caught in the sex act with an orange inflatable toy that Teague said a neighbor had put out for the trash.
“He was yelling, ‘Please forgive me. I won’t do it again. Don’t call the police,’ ” as he ran back into his house, Teague said.
The girl is now hesitant to play in the back yard, even though she knows Tobergta is in jail, Teague said.
“We are looking at putting her in counseling,” she said
Timothy Teague, the girl’s grandfather, said he is appalled by what happened.
“How can a man — a man — take and do something …. with a rubber raft in front of a 10-year-old child? Its very appalling,” he said.
Theresa Teague moved to the neighborhood in October and said she had no idea about Tobergta’s past.
“I feel like as public citizens, we need to be warned of things like that,” she said.
Tobergta has been arrested several times previously for similar offenses, according to Hamilton Municipal Court records.
In August 2011, he was arrested at his home after he was seen engaging in sexual conduct with a pink inflatable swimming pool raft, according to police records.
The incident allegedly occurred in an alley behind his home. The witness, who was the owner of the raft, reported to police that the suspect took the raft with him after being shouted at to stop, according to records.
After the 2011 arrest, police said Tobergta admitted to the act and told officers that he has a problem and needs help.

You know what would fix this problem? Not jail. Too harsh. You don’t even get jail time for banging a horse multiple times in the state apparently. No, this one can be wrapped up in a quick, two-part solution – high fences and more spending on pool rafts.
I’m not sure how a 10-year-old would be able to see a man in his own back yard humping a pool raft and the story didn’t exactly make that clear. Maybe the neighbors have a tall deck. Either way if you put up some ten foot fencework with some assorted shrubbery then it should nip the problem in the bud. Then the public isn’t forced to shell out three squares a day on some dude who likes to get down with rafts.
Sure, no one likes the idea of their neighbor rubbing his gross goober on an inflatable next door, but out of sight, out of mind. Also, Mr. Tobertga needs to find a way to scare up his own coin for buying inflatable rafts. You can’t go dumpster diving for a sexual fetish. It’s unsanitary and unsavory.
