A FORMER high-profile police and emergency services spokesman who received official honours for his work has admitted masturbating in front of two male backpackers.
Kevin John Loomes, 58, pleaded guilty the Brisbane Magistrates Court today to two counts of performing an indecent act.
Loomes entered a backpacker's hostel on Ann Street in Brisbane's CBD last December, carrying a towel, the court was told. The married man proceeded to a shower block on level one and began chatting to a 22-year-old backpacker before taking his towel off and masturbating in front of the traveller, police prosecutor Carrie Davidson said.
The backpacker quickly left the area and Loomes went to another shower block on a different floor where he started chatting to a second 22-year-old backpacker.
Standing in front of the traveller with one hand on his hip and the other on his penis, Loomes asked: "Has this ever happened to you before?"

NEW YORK (CNN) -- One morning a couple of months ago at Westchester Medical Center, Dawn Verdick gave Daniel Flood one of her kidneys.
Daniel Flood received a kidney from Dawn Verdick. They were brought together through Craigslist. Verdick and Flood were not friends or family. In fact, they were total strangers from the East and West coasts. But that's not the most unusual aspect of this case.
The patient and donor were brought together after Flood's three daughters placed an ad on Craigslist, the online classifieds site that offers everything from autos to real estate and guitar lessons to massage.
"Please help us, my dad needs a kidney!" began their posting in the site's volunteer section.
