A notorious butt-sniffing freak was thrown behind bars again after he was allegedly caught putting his schnoz near the backside of an unsuspecting woman at a Nordstrom Rack in California.

Calese Carron Crowder, 36, was arrested Tuesday after he was captured on security cams crouching near a woman and sniffing her rear end in the women’s section of the Burbank Empire Center department store, according to the Burbank Police Department.

Police said the registered sex offender was seen trailing the innocent shopper around the store before sticking his nose where it doesn’t belong — a disturbing act he’s already been busted for multiple times.

The Glendale pervert was eventually taken into custody inside a nearby Walmart.


He is currently on active parole for a series of lewd offenses dating back to 2021, said police, who initially responded to the retail chain following reports of a suspicious man lurking around the women’s apparel section.


Crowder made national headlines in August 2023 after a viral TikTok video showed him sneaking up behind women at a Burbank Barnes & Noble and sniffing their derrières.

He was also arrested later that month for peeping into a family home in Glendale — and then released.

I tried this a few times at a TJ Maxx, and it wasn't pleasant. Not good.

An infamous butt-sniffing pervert has been arrested again after allegedly being caught in the act yet again — despite being busted and held on $100,000 bail just a month ago.

Calese Crowder, 38, was charged with a felony and is now being held without bail after his alleged creepy behavior at a Walgreens in Burbank on Wednesday led to employees calling the cops on him, ABC7 reports.

Charges indicate he was on parole at the time of his latest arrest — and he has a documented history of arrests for lewd conduct dating back to 2021.

In mid-July, Crowder was taken into custody following reports of a suspicious person at a Burbank Nordstrom Rack loitering in the women’s department.

He was held on $100,000 bail following that arrest. It’s not clear why he was let out again.

“While in the women’s section, the suspect was observed following a female customer, crouching near her, and engaging in lewd behavior by inappropriately sniffing her buttocks,” police said in a statement.

“Given the nature of the behavior, officers made contact with the suspect and detained him for further investigation.”

In August 2023, Crowder was caught in another butt-sniffing incident captured on video at a Barnes and Noble bookstore in Burbank.

When confronted by Witter, he told her he was tying his shoes, but Witter said it looked as if he was smelling her from behind.

Crowder was also accused by Witter of doing the same thing to another woman at the store.
