Englewood, New Jersey is a small city near the Hudson River in northern New Jersey, best known as the home of the Lipton Tea Company and...a senior citizen prostitution ring?

Three senior citizens have been arrested in an apparent prostitution ring bust at a senior home in New Jersey. One elderly woman was arrested for allegedly having a crack pipe as well. The arrests were made at the Vicente Tibbs Senior Citizen Center on West Street in the North Jersey community.

James Parham, 75, and Cheryl Chaney, 66, were arrested for maintaining a drug nuisance and possessing drug paraphernalia. A third suspect, Selma McDuffie, 54, was charged with possessing a crack cocaine pipe. Parham allegedly confessed to inviting prostitutes into the building to service his younger acquaintances, according to Englewood Police Detective Capt. Timothy Torell.

The Englewood Housing Authority which owns the senior citizen complex held a safety seminar in March, after residents reported untoward visitors in the building. The North Jersey Record reported that these new faces included "vagrants in lounge chairs [and] drunks wandering the halls". There were also reports of used sexual apparatuses in the gymnasium area.

Maria Iwano, the head of the housing authority, said that Chaney was already in the process of being evicted before the allegations arose.

The paper also reported that Officer Zellvon Lucas was one of a number of officers assigned to the building after the senior citizens' arrests, and soon arrested an unidentified "disheveled woman" for criminal trespassing on the Tibbs Senior Center grounds.
