Conservative Leader Accused of Indecency

The leader of an Atlanta-based conservative legal foundation seeking to have President Clinton disbarred was charged with public indecency. An undercover federal officer said he saw Matthew J. Glavin fondling himself on May 17 on a trail in the Chattahoochee National River Park, just east of Atlanta. The officer said Glavin also fondled him after the two started talking. Glavin, 47, resigned as president and chief executive of the Southeastern Legal Foundation. Glavin has denied the charge against him and said he resigned “to protect my family and the foundation.”
