A duo accused of having sex in a church graveyard while horrified children and parents walked past have been named.
The alleged lewd incident took place on the porch of St Peter’s Church in Brandon in Suffolk at 3.30pm on November 20 last year. A man and woman were allegedly seen fornicating on the porch leaving children and parents – who were passing through the graveyard on their way home from school – completely horrified.
