4-3 Jim Morrison was either lewd or just suggestive in Miami

On this date in 1969, the Doors performed at the Dinner Key Auditorium in Miami. During the concert, Jim Morrison allegedly exposed himself. Four days after the concert, the Dade County Sheriff put out a warrant for the lead singer's arrest on charges that included a felony count for lewd and lascivious behavior and 5 lesser charges. He was convicted on the 20th of September. Despite his conviction, whether Morrison actually went as far as the worst charge was questionable. Outgoing Florida Governor Charlie Crist requested his state's Parole Board grant Morrison a posthumous pardon on December 9, 2010. It got unanimous approval.
