South Carolina Woman Arrested For Doing Topless Jumping Jacks In Her Front Yard

A South Carolina woman was arrested last weekend for doing jumping jacks topless in her front yard.  The 27-year-old's outdoor workout got the attention of neighbors due to the fact that she was screaming throughout.

Horry County police were called by one of Alexis Harnett's neighbors a few days after the incident.  The neighbor had witnessed her doing jumping jacks in her front yard while topless on the afternoon of March 2.

The neighbor did what anyone in that situation would do.  He recorded his neighbor's topless jumping jacks, waited a few days after doing so, then contacted the police.  Why the delay?  You can come to your own conclusions on that one.

When officers were finally called and arrived at his home, he showed them the video of Harnett's attention-grabbing workout.  Police noted that there's no fence at the home or anything that would prevent people from seeing straight into her yard.

Harnett was charged with one count of obscene exposure.  She was released from jail on Tuesday afternoon after posting a $10,000 bond.  During her bond hearing on Sunday, a judge determined that she must be on home detention if she posted bond.

She is barred from having any contact with the victim, a neighbor who has two small children.

Not Surprising At All Is The Fact That This Is Far From Her First Issue With A Neighbor

This is far from Harnett's first run-in with one of her neighbors or the court system.  She's due back in court later this month for an unrelated assault and battery charge.

Prosecutors have detailed Harnett's and her boyfriend, Worden Butler's history of alleged harassment of multiple neighbors.  Harassment that has gone as far as burning a cross in an attempt to intimidate black neighbors.

The multiple issues with neighbors have resulted in an attempt by the 15th Circuit Solicitor’s Office to kick them out of the house they rent from Butler's mother through a temporary injunction.

Living next to these two sounds like an absolute nightmare, minus the topless jumping jacks.  On the list of things that they've allegedly done, it sounds like the noisy, clothing optional, workout would be way down towards the bottom.

I might even confuse it for an attempt at an apology with everything else that has gone on.  An "I'm sorry" of sorts for the multiple issues that the couple is accused of causing.  I'm not saying I'd accept the apology, but I feel like it's at least a start.
