BATTLE CREEK, MICHIGAN – The local Masonic Temple in a solid, American town like, say, Battle Creek, Mich., serves as a gathering place for pillars of the community.
Business leaders, local politicians, even clergy are often members of the centuries-old fraternal organization known as the Masons.
Their meeting hall is a place where they can gather out of the public spotlight and finally just relax.
Imagine, then, the surprise of police in Battle Creek when they were called to the Masonic Temple at 2:19 am on Sunday of last week only to walk in and find what they described to local News Channel 3 as a “drug fueled sex party.”
Battle Creek is perhaps best known in popular culture as the home of Kellogg’s, makers of many popular breakfast cereals and other food products.
The call came in to police as a report of a fight at the Temple, which in itself would be unusual enough for the generally staid and secretive Masonic Order.
It would also be odd because the temple sits on the same block as the Battle Creek police station and county courthouse.
But when cops entered the temple at 133 East Michigan Avenue, the first thing they saw was “five women dancing naked on a stage,” according to a police blotter report.
