In 1970 Yarrow was convicted of, and served three months in prison for taking "improper liberties" with a 14-year-old girl who went with her 17-year-old sister to Yarrow's hotel room seeking an autograph.[33][34][35][36][37] He has since apologized for the incident: "It was an era of real indiscretion and mistakes by categorically male performers. I was one of them. I got nailed. I was wrong. I'm sorry for it.

I Googled. He was convicted of answering the door naked in 1970. I have friends who've done that, but there were't 14 and 17 year old girls on the other side. I don't know about other circumstances.

But seriously, answering the door naked 40-some years ago. And they just figured it out after booking him!? Stupid people...
