1Opinion of the Court

HILL, Justice.

[T1] After a jury convicted Ricky Lee Dougherty of one count of child endangering/obscene act for exposing himself in front of an eleven-year-old girl and then masturbating in a Cheyenne park, Mr. Dougherty contends on appeal that the district court did not properly instruct the jury as to the definition of the word "presence" as it is used in the charging statute, Wyo. Stat. Aun. § 6-4-408(b)(iif). Also, Mr, Dougherty argues that the district court improperly admitted evidence of his prior bad acts in the form of court documents rather than testimony. We will reverse.
