Rogerio Miranda De Souza, 49, was booked into the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on Wednesday night on a new charge of indecent exposure, according to jail records.

South Miami police said the latest incident occurred May 23 along U.S. 1 near Southwest 104th Street and involved a different female victim.

Investigators said they were able to identify De Souza through the use of a license plate reader. Detectives later contacted his attorney, and De Souza surrendered to authorities Wednesday.

The arrest comes just weeks after De Souza appeared before a judge in a separate indecent exposure case.

In that incident, police said a woman reported being followed for nearly 30 minutes after leaving a gym in Miami’s Brickell neighborhood. According to investigators, De Souza repeatedly drove around the woman’s vehicle, cut her off in traffic and, at one point, was seen touching himself while driving alongside her.

Police said the woman provided detectives with a license plate number that helped lead investigators to De Souza.

At the time of that arrest, detectives told Local 10 News they were investigating another case involving similar allegations. However, authorities have not confirmed whether the latest arrest is connected to that earlier investigation.

De Souza remained in custody Thursday morning and was expected to appear in bond court later in the day.

Police have not yet released additional details about the second case.
