Florida Woman Caught "Torquing It" on Parked Motorcycle

A Florida woman searching for the true meaning of the term "crotch rocket" was busted on the evening September 6 when neighbors caught her masturbating on a motorcycle, which was parked in her garage with the door open.

The woman's personal 'garage door' was also open, so to speak, as witnesses reported that she had hiked her black and white dress up, and "was half naked from the waist down and was masturbating."

The Smoking Gun reports that neighbors called 911 to report that 50-year-old Karen Dilworth was "half naked and sitting backwards" masturbating on her motorcycle as it was parked in her garage.

According to an affidavit, neighbor Katherine Marriott called the police after returning to her home on Pine Cone Trail with her husband and young son and witnessing the woman "leaning backwards and her legs were spread apart."

Another neighbor, Nicholas McRay, also told the police that he had witnessed the woman masturbating on the motorcycle. The 45-year-old Pine Cone Trail reportedly told her "there was kids around and he yelled at the defendant to shut the door," which McRay said she then did. Hopefully, she turned the engine off first.

When police arrived, they found Dilworth in the garage in question, wearing the black and white dress. She told police that she had not been in the garage or on the motorcycle. Police said she appeared to be under the influence, but Dilworth said she had only been "smoking cigarettes and drinking some beers."

Her ex-husband, who was found inside the house, told police that he was unaware of what had allegedly happened in the garage.

Dilworth, a Michigan resident, was arrest on a felony charge of lewd and lascivious exhibition, since the act was witnessed by Marriott's 13-year-old son (that should make for an interesting adolescence for the boy). She was booked in the Volusia County Jail, and later released after posting a $1,000 bond.
