Man, 77, meant to sell ill-gotten erectile drugs in sprawling Florida retirement community, feds sayTHE VILLAGES, Fla. (AP) Federal authorities have arrested a 77-year-old man for allegedly buying more than $1,800 in erectile dysfunction drugs without a prescription and intending to sell them in the massive central Florida retirement community The Villages and elsewhere.
The man was arrested last month in The Villages, where he lives alongside nearly 80,000 fulltime residents and which was featured in the 2020 documentary Some Kind of Heaven.
The defendant has pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor charge and agreed to have his case heard before a magistrate judge instead of a jury. If convicted, he faces up to a year in federal prison and a fine of up to $10,000.
In court filings, prosecutors allege that the man received more than $1,800 worth of erectile dysfunction drugs that had been shipped through interstate commerce. The drugs were misbranded because the man obtained them without a valid prescription, according to federal authorities.

about The Villages, this is not out of the ordinary. The whole place is filled with swingers.

I did not know that; swingers, I would have thought, were open-minded.

They pick fights with various & sundry neighbors, including the church across the street because the sign is too bright (its not).

that had a bunch of people from The Villages on there. It must have been a group cruise type of thing. (Ours was a conference on board). One of the comedians that we saw was joking about it. Said that he did a show there once and was invited to an after-after party with a bunch of them getting their freak on.
