49-year-old Kelly Elkins lives in Treasure Island, Florida. It is reported that she is an attorney at KEE Legal Group P.A., in addition to running a solo practice.
Early in the morning on February 18, Elkins was in St. Pete Beach. The woman reportedly went to the Corey Avenue Shopping District and entered Beach Lounge.
When Elkins tried to order a drink, she interacted with the manager of the bar. It was reported that they believed Elkins was already very drunk, and she was told that she would not be served.
The manager reportedly told Elkins that she had to leave the premises, but the woman allegedly refused to do so.
It was reported that Elkins went into the restroom and removed her clothing.
When she emerged from the bathroom and reentered the bar area, several patrons reportedly saw her alleged public nudity.
The authorities were notified, and law enforcement from the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office went to the establishment.
According to the arrest report, when they arrived, Elkins was still present and sans clothes.
Elkins was asked to put her clothes on, but the woman reportedly did not want to comply. After a few minutes, Elkins put on a jacket, but she was reportedly still exposed because she did not zip it up.
The deputy saw a pair of pants near Elkins that they assumed were hers, and when she was asked to put them on, she reportedly said she was “too tired” to perform the task.
Elkins, who chose to remain silent when she was questioned about the situation, was placed under arrest and booked into Pinellas County Jail for disorderly conduct. She was released on her own recognizance.
