Why did pee wee get arrested?

Answer 1

Paul Reuben, best known as "Pee Wee Hermann", was arrested for indecent exposure. The circumstances surrounding it indicates that it was not evil behavior, but simply sad, as he was in an adult theater where such things are expected.

Whatever his level of wrong, he paid a larger price than an ordinary person would, as besides the criminal difficulties, he lost his show.

He has, with more courage than one would have thought, made a quiet but decent "come back", and still gets parts and roles, and is well regarded by most.
