WLOSers made a big production out of an interview Carolyn Ryan had Thursday night with the Ashvegas woman who was charged with having sex in public with her Cialis-pumped boyfriend. WLOS said the woman agreed to talk to them only if WLOSers agreed to keep her identity secret.

Well, it’s no secret. Police reports are public record, and The Smoking Gun has it, with photos and names and everything. Thanks to loyal reader Jeremy for tracking down the link for us.

Check it out. Here’s a sample:

Eager to try out a new prescription for the erectile dysfunction drug Cialis, a couple in their fifties is facing indecent exposure charges after they were caught having sex on a balcony at a family resort in South Carolina. William McGinn, 57, and Patricia Scott, 53, were arrested Saturday afternoon when other vacationers at the Breakers Resort spotted them engaging in a variety of sex acts on their third-floor balcony, according to a Myrtle Beach Police Department report, an excerpt of which you’ll find below. One witness told cops that McGinn and Scott ignored requests that they take it inside, away from the view of guests, including children.

    A, take a wild guess how I know.

    B, her quotes were better than just showing people the names on an arrest form.

    All in all, we heard from the accused, heard the wacky details in the police report, and heard from the cops.

    That trums The wack details from cops, the report, and a name, which all it was gonna be.

    Oh and the Towel was her Idea.

    how do you know, A? how does watching the back of a shrouded woman’s head make the story "way better?" her quotes were weak as hell.

    The people only agreed to an interview after they were told their identities would be kept secret.

    Since the names mean nothing to roughly 99.9999% of the viwers, the story in their own words was way better.

    Hell, at 50-something you gotta get it when you can.

    At least they were on the 3rd floor, my thoughts are this….if you didnt want to see it, all you had to do was turn your head and not look up there.

    I say PARTY-ON dudes
