Maybe it’s a California thing, but growing up there was a lot of back and forth about how you could get put on the sex offender list for urinating in public. That wasn’t the case. So if someone said that’s the reason they were on the list, it was never the full story.

To be clear, I’ve never done this, it was just some weird cultural zeitgeist when I was growing up.

It’s also beyond ‘good Samaritan’ due to the whole ‘pulled her towards his car’ aspect. It also reads as someone trying to discipline someone outside of their care. Imagine you’re a teen trying to jaywalk and this random guy turns his vehicle around, grabs you, and tries to drag you towards it.

It definitely gives of ‘I’m only on the sex offender list because I pissed in public’ vibes.
