The octogenarian couple accused
of lewd behavior in a park near their Connecticut home denied
wrongdoing in a TSG interview, saying that they were caught up in a
morals sweep targeting men engaging in public sex acts.
Joyce Butler, 85, and her husband Richard, 82, were cited last week
for breach of peace at a Fairfield park about four miles from their home
in Bridgeport.
After receiving complaints about inappropriate behavior in the park,
police conducted a surveillance operation that netted the couple, 
who have been married for 60 years, and four men ranging in age from 62 to 75.
who have been married for 60 years, and four men ranging in age from 62 to 75.
A police press release announcing the roundup does not specifically describe what the Butlers allegedly did at the park.
But in an interview today, the couple--who were branded “sexual deviants” in a New York Post story--vehemently
denied engaging in lewd activity while parked in their Toyota. “We were
just sitting there and we just got caught in what was going on,” said
Joyce Butler. “And they were perfectly all wrong. There was nothing
going on at all.”
The couple, who have five adult children and 14 grandchildren, said
they went for a drive last Friday and stopped at the Grace Richardson
Conservation Area.
“We were just sitting in the car to get a little air and that was
it,” said Joyce, who added that, “We’ve gone there for years. We used to
take the children to go find golf balls years ago when they were
little.” The 87-acre park is adjacent to a public golf course.
When Joyce handed the phone to her husband, the first thing Richard
Butler told TSG was, “I haven’t had sex in maybe 10 years. I got no
blood flow. I got three doctors that would back me up.” The retired
factory worker then echoed his wife’s account of their visit to the
park.
“What the fuck can I do in the fucking front seat of a car?” asked
Richard, who said he uses a walker and can no longer navigate the park
on foot, as he used to do with his wife.
Richard said he was behind the wheel of the couple’s car when police
pulled the vehicle over while they drove home. He initially thought he
was going to be ticketed for driving without his seatbelt on, but then
several cop cars approached. Joyce recalled her husband saying, “I feel
like I just killed somebody.”
Despite their protests, the couple said, police issued them breach of
peace citations requiring a court appearance next Tuesday. “When we do
go, we will tell the truth,” Joyce said. “Which we tried to tell [the
police], but they didn’t listen. We will tell the judge when we go next
week.”
Richard said the couple has not hired a lawyer due to the prohibitive
cost. “We didn’t do nothing. I’m not gonna pay some lawyer because we
didn’t do nothing,” he declared.
