A couple in Florida attracted quite a bit of attention last summer, when a video of them having the often-cliched sex on the beach made its way to YouTube for all to see.
A description of the explicit video was provided by WFLA:
The couple didnt hold back.
Bold and brazen with their bodies, they were grinding in full view. Bradenton Beach Police were called, and the couple was eventually arrested.
The indecent encounter was captured by a sunbathing great-grandmother on her iPhone. There are claims even a three-year-old saw the couple.
On Monday, the couple appeared before a judge. TIME reports:
Jose Caballero, 40, and Elissa Alvarez, 20, were convicted of two counts each of lewd and lascivious behavior for having sex on Bradenton Beach in 2014. The jury took only 15 minutes to reach a verdict.
As part of their sentence, the pair faces up to 15 years in prison each. Attorney for the couple Ronald Kurpiers told TIME:
Its a horrifically harsh potential penalty for what theyre alleged to have done and thats really the rub here, he said.
The following is courtroom footage of the family members talking about the illicit act:
Arresting officer Eric Hill from Bradenton Beach commented:
This isnt an after-hours disco that people can use for a garbage can. This is the root of family.
Resident Ray Schmitz agrees:
Its ridiculous, it shouldnt happen, theres a time and place for everything, not for on the beach. Im proud of our law enforcement for stopping this!
While a date for sentencing has yet to be determined, the couple must also become registered sex offenders.
I know I am...big deal!
My kids are—I keep them on a tight leash.
They are well behaved, well thought of, highly educated, and I hardly ever have to discipline them.
Proverbs 13:24
I don’t have a tenth of the headaches from my kids as my idiot neighbors do for allowing them to behave like animals.
I’ve posted the full account before so let your imagination loose.
It was over 35 years ago. Mrs p6 and I were newly married and still full of carnal desires. One Sunday afternoon we wanted to get out of the house for awhile but having little money we went where admission was low...The Buhl Planetarium and it’s HALL OF SCIENCE!
The hall was huge and dark with few lights except for small spotlights over the dioramas of things like the solar system or Drake oil well.
Few of those even worked and so attendance was always low with very few people scattered around the hall.
Heavy black curtains covered all the walls. As we neared the exit one or both of us had a naughty thought. We ducked behind the curtains near the exit door for an intimate interlude.
One thing we forgot was that a HUGE Van De Graaff machine was just outside hall where we were. Every hour there was a demonstration with the generator shooting long lightning bolts through the air.
It was the top of the hour.
The demonstration began.
I’ll leave the rest to your imagination but we now refer to the unfortunate incident as ...
MR WIZARD’S REVENGE.
I believe the higher authority you refer to said “let he who is without sin cast the first stone”. Unless Allah is your higher authority, in which case 15 years is more in line with what one of his followers would be pushing for.
I will admit proposing this sort of activity to my wife on a deserted stretch of beach, long before everyone had a video camera on them at all times. Thirty years later the memory is still fresh and I’m still a little miffed that she wouldn’t go for it.
I’ll volunteer to give her a good spanking.
Gotta wonder if anyone, especially a dad, tried to intervene, to get them to stop. I was ticked at a Hispanic mother in our mall a couple years ago sitting out in broad view breastfeeding what appeared to be at least a year old or more baby. I’ve no problem with public breastfeeding, so long as some modesty is shown by at least covering up your fat breast hanging down, but no, she was completely uncovered. First, I asked: “comprende English?” she replied, yes. Then I told her that was inappropriate, that she should cover herself, and it might be done that way in Mexico, but not the custom in America! I don’t know if she did understand, but I got it “off my chest.”... pun intended.
The couple? Were they a "couple" or was it a transactional event?
What do you think war criminal? Life in prison maybe? 10 years hard labor? How about stoning!!!
Sorry, but community service and 30 days is not even a slap on the wrist.
If they had been caught fooling around on the beach at 2am, sure, but in broad daylight at a family vacation spot, no way I’d remotely consider anything that light.
If they get away with just that, then others will almost certainly do it.
How do you plead?
I plead insanity
Insanity?
Yes, insanity. Im just crazy about that stuff!
He also said this in 1 Corinthians 6:9-10
“Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God.”
Eternity is far more than 15 years, which I’m sure they would much prefer over the former.
Well, we’ve been married 37 years...haven’t we suffered enough, LOL?????
He was demonstrating the distance between earthly judgement and eternal judgement. I do hope you realize the difference.
I told you I’m good with 15 years.
There were probably kids on that beach seeing that filth—I’m sure you’re fine with that though eh?
Or Guy Caballero.
“am appalled at their act, but I do think 15 years in prison is WAY over the top.
Maybe community service and fines, and/or 30 days in jail.”
If they had been caught smoking Meth on the beach, they’d be looking at 30 days, plus community service, plus probation.
+1
I have never understood a fun of this thing as far as sand is a substance which is certainly incompatible with such an activity but 15 years is beyond unreasonable.
They do deserve some sort of punishment like maybe a dozen hours of lectures on morals but not this harsh.
Been there. DONE that.
