A prominent Florida atheist activist has been charged with verbally simulating sex in the presence of a 10-year-old neighbor.
Ellen Beth Wachs, 48, was charged with lewd and lascivious behavior.
Wachs has been prominent in her opposition to prayer at public meetings and challenged the constitutionality of the sheriff donating jail basketball hoops to Polk County churches.
An arrest affidavit said she was arrested following a Saturday morning dispute with a neighbor.
According to the affidavit, the 10-year-old boy was playing basketball when Wachs yelled through her open bedroom window for him to stop.
The boy was joined outside by his father, who asserted his son's right to play the game.
Wachs then started making moans and other sounds that simulated sex until the boy and his father finally stopped playing basketball and went inside, the affidavit said.
Her attorney, John Ligouri, said he believes his client's prominence as an atheist has simply made her a target.
"I think at a fundamental level this is a reaction to her personal, political or religious positions, and I think that all of this flows from her speaking out in that context," Ligouri said.
Wachs was previously out on bail on a charge she was practicing law without a license.
She was being held Wednesday without bail at the Polk County Jail.
Polk Sheriff Grady Judd and State Attorney Jerry Hill declined comment.
Wachs next court hearing is Friday when her attorney will request a judge to set bail and release her from jail.
Have you ever heard say someone say "great" when they meant the opposite? Like, "oh great, another bill to pay," for example. They don't mean that it is great. They mean the opposite
Now when I said "Nice" in my post, I really meant "this is not nice all."
Do you understand now? Exactly how dense are you?
ROFLMAO!!
Doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue, Slings, but ROFL anyway.
I am thinking you are neglecting the Laz factor...
May I suggest a </sarcasm> tag?
I was going to work “quantum fluctuations of the fabric of space-time” in there, but that would have been silly.
Showoff.
When he finally got lucky...he said she made grunting sounds like a linebacker hitting the line at the snap
He said it “killed” it for him.
Good thing a 10 year old wasn't around.
I think all men love encouragement or a cheering section from their lady..something anything beats pillow biting but boy...sex is so complicated and just a hot mess of physical and emotional over heightening...we all do love it though.
An odd note is how many serial killers are homosexual men who were exposed to their moms having sex with men...or maybe even worse stuff.
Lol...now thats just wrong.
