Republican Public Sex-Act Hero Spared Jail Time

Freedom isn't freeKim Capello, the married heterosexual male county commissioner from Nowheresville, Michigan, electrified the Republican party this spring when police allegedly caught him having naked sex with an adult lady, in public. “I was in the wrong place at the wrong time,” he later told reporters, in a clear show of remorse for not having been caught in a fur suit soliciting sex from teenage boys.

Anyway, Capello faced up to 93 days in jail for indecent exposure, but it looks like he’ll “just” get two years to complete various probation-related duties (alcohol and drug testing, community service etc.) after pleading guilty to acts he maintains he did not perform.

That gives him plenty of time to gear up for a 2012 presidential run, filling that crucial and as yet unoccupied niche of “Republican men who appear to enjoy non-procreative sex with women.” (Romney and Huckabee obviously do not count, because one has android sperm and the other only has sex with pies, to impregnate them.)

  1. President Beeblebrox says at 10:22 am, June 5th, 2009

    Ha, I caught this last night.

    Read between the lines - and the comments. The guy was apparently into golden showers. Win!

  2. Serolf Divad says at 10:23 am, June 5th, 2009

    Republican Kim Capello denied being nude when appeared before 52-1 District Judge Dennis Powers on allegations Novi police caught him in a sexual encounter with 37-year-old Novi resident, Sheila Grogan, in April in the downtown area.

    No ma’am, I was not nude…. I was wearing a dog collar and crotchless leather pants.

  3. x111e7thst says at 10:29 am, June 5th, 2009

    But did Jeebus cum in his heart?

  4. Oh, whatever.

  5. Formerly Preferred says at 10:31 am, June 5th, 2009

    True story: Novi is Novi because Michiganders cannot read Roman numerals and thus didn’t realize the marking on the map was No. VI.

    My apologies if this was covered in previous comments. Always used to love Novi because that’s where 12 Oaks Mall was.

  6. Hopey dont play that game says at 10:33 am, June 5th, 2009

    Serolf Divad: Typical liberal media exaggeration. He was wearing assless chaps a la David Lee Roth, not crotchless leather.

  7. CockedAle says at 10:33 am, June 5th, 2009

    From Nowheresville, in a “State of Undress,” in the Uri-nation, or possibly in-Continent? Wonkette really improves my geography.

  8. hobospacejunkie says at 10:36 am, June 5th, 2009

    Jeezus people! For the last freakin’ time, I was not nude. I don’t even know where these rumors get started. I was, for the most part, clothed, lying down on my back, enjoying what the more sophisticated members of society refer to as a “Douche D’Or.” How this became, of all things, a police matter, I simply cannot say.

  9. DangerousLiberal says at 10:36 am, June 5th, 2009

    He’s straight
    He mates
    Get used to it.

    But the golden showers kink is, um, …troubling.

    But still, folks, this is regular het sex…nothing to see here….move along.

  10. Prommie says at 10:36 am, June 5th, 2009

    So I was walking down the street, and there was this prostitute, and, um, I fell in.

  11. Texan Bulldoggette says at 10:37 am, June 5th, 2009

    “I was in the wrong place at the wrong time”

    Translates to:

    My dick was in the right place at the wrong time.

  12. doxastic says at 10:37 am, June 5th, 2009

    This analysis misses the crucial urination angle. Either he was peeing on the naked lady while he himself was naked, or they just hanging out (naked) post-coitus and he took the opportunity to piss while already disrobed, for convenience. Which, honestly, is way funnier than a mere golden shower.

  13. norbizness says at 10:38 am, June 5th, 2009

    Public heterosexual sex? Are we sure he’s a Republican? He can’t be a Libertarian; they reproduce asexually through spores after arriving at an excited state by reading Atlas Shrugged.

  14. x111e7thst says at 10:40 am, June 5th, 2009

    hobospacejunkie: Sophisticated members? In Michigan? Who knew.

  15. Still having control problems, commissioner?

  16. Woodwards Friend says at 10:43 am, June 5th, 2009

    Jennifer Granholm has a sad because Kim Capello isn’t peeing on, I mean, near her. She hasn’t been this sad since Obama passed her over for the Supreme Court.

    I bet you don’t get to use the header “annals of justice” with the extra n all that often when you write Republican sex stories, do you?

  18. Gorillionaire says at 10:45 am, June 5th, 2009

    Republican Kim Capello denied being nude when appeared before 52-1 District Judge Dennis Powers on allegations Novi police caught him in a sexual encounter with 37-year-old Novi resident, Sheila Grogan, in April in the downtown area.

    Well, duh, it is generally a pretty bad idea to appear in court naked.

  19. TheNavOne says at 10:48 am, June 5th, 2009

    He will resign and give the usual response: I’ve decided I’d like to spend more time with the naked lady I was caught with.

  20. Cape Clod says at 10:48 am, June 5th, 2009

    I guess that when you have your shirt off, your genitals exposed, and you’re banging a woman on brick wall while drunk when the police show up you could rationally say that you were “in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

  21. ManchuCandidate says at 10:51 am, June 5th, 2009

    Oh comeon! He was practicing for a play with the Novi Theater Players. He was just showing his “friend” his role as the Manneken Pis in Novi Theater Players Presents: “Pageant of Living Art.”

  22. Joshua Norton says at 10:56 am, June 5th, 2009

    Cape Clod: Or that he was taken “out of context”.

  23. x111e7thst says at 10:57 am, June 5th, 2009

    TheNavOne: Alternately he could get with Vito Fosella and found a new political party, which would be just like the Republicans, but without the boybanging.

  24. wx insider says at 11:05 am, June 5th, 2009

    Sounds like he’s a lesbian trapped in a man’s body.

  25. Oh, I get it now. He wasn’t just naked; he was nekkid.

  26. americanscandoanything says at 11:07 am, June 5th, 2009

    If he only had sense enough to wear diapers

    every thing would be cool

  27. Scrodd says at 11:11 am, June 5th, 2009

    This is what public toilets are for, people.

  28. WadISay says at 11:11 am, June 5th, 2009

    norbizness: Republican males refer to this as “taking one for the team.”

  29. SayItWithWookies says at 11:14 am, June 5th, 2009

    Formerly Preferred: Always used to love Novi because that’s where 12 Oaks Mall was.
    Which I guess is the future site of Xiioaks, Michigan?

  30. Monsieur Grumpe says at 11:14 am, June 5th, 2009

    Michigan performance art is not for everyone.

  31. smashtheduck says at 11:18 am, June 5th, 2009

    Kim. Lindsey. Will parents please, for the love of jeebus, stop giving your boys girly names? No. As you were. It obviously helps produce a sweet batch next batch of closet case, golden showering, diaper wearing repubtards.

  32. Alldat says at 11:32 am, June 5th, 2009

    Min: Naked= you don’t have any clothes on.
    Nekkid= you don’t have any clothes on and you’re up to somethin’.

  33. thefrontpage says at 11:39 am, June 5th, 2009

    The article fails to mention whether Kwami Kilpatrick, Eliot Spitzer, Don Sherwood, Larry Craig, Mark Foley, Gary Hart or David Carradine were involved in this incident.

  34. wx insider says at 11:40 am, June 5th, 2009

    This gives a whole new meaning to “constituent services.”

  35. forgracie says at 11:42 am, June 5th, 2009

    Scrodd: Senator Craig?

  36. The Church of Realism says at 11:55 am, June 5th, 2009

    Shouldn’t the tag really read: Anals of Justice?

  37. TheNavOne says at 12:15 pm, June 5th, 2009

    x111e7thst: Maybe that’s the bold step they have to take for the future of the party. I’m just not sure their ready to take such a radical approach.

  38. Mr Blifil says at 12:33 pm, June 5th, 2009

    Today we are all Busted For Sidewalk Sex.

    I wish.

  39. S.Luggo says at 12:54 pm, June 5th, 2009

    Capello should go after that Oakland rag for libel. It did NOT happen on a sidewalk.

    So there!

  40. liquiddaddy says at 1:52 pm, June 5th, 2009

    I’ve done that! Except there was no adult lady present. Or anybody else, except me.

  41. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 2:08 pm, June 5th, 2009

    Are you sure he is a Republican? Do we have any proof that he wasn’t with a tranny prostitute?

  42. finallyhappy says at 2:14 pm, June 5th, 2009

    And the wife is standing by her man. What schmucks- both of them

  43. CaliforniaMike says at 4:13 pm, June 5th, 2009

    smashtheduck: Amen, Smash. What kind of a man could he possibly be, especially since on his birth certificate — which he will not release, and what’s up with that? — Kim is short for Kimberly.

  44. EdFlinstone says at 4:46 pm, June 5th, 2009

    Lewd conduct, urinating in public, 3 prior arrests for drunk driving, for a second there I was doubting his republican traditional values cred.

  45. CanadianBacon says at 11:49 pm, June 5th, 2009

    “I was in the wrong place at the wrong time,” I guess his wife believed him. This could also be said for the last President, although for different reasons.

  46. ThePuckStopsHere says at 4:22 pm, June 6th, 2009

    Son of a bitch. If I lived, like 3/4 of a mile west of where I live, I’d be in this guy’s district. I could run against him. I think I could take him. Uh, er, beat him. I mean, defeat him. I could make the pie higher…

  47. philips says at 8:59 pm, June 7th, 2009

    How a person can do such type of indescent act. He or she may have some mental problems. The court should order to check that only.

  48. What is with these stupid republican men and their girly names? Kim? Lindsay? Newt? Scratch Newt. God knows what the fuck he is.

  49. dlgmltkd1 says at 9:20 am, June 8th, 2009

    Sweet
