Tony allegedly told cops ‘it just happened’ and insisted it was the first time he had sex with his mom.

Police were called to reports of a disturbance at the property on May 20 and arrived on the scene to be met by the cousin of Tony’s wife, reported the Sentinel & Enterprise.

The cousin told officers Tony’s wife had called her after she had walked in on her husband and his mom having sex in the property, police said.  

Both Tony and Cheryl allegedly admitted to the officer separately that they had consensual sexual relations with each other and told them it was the first time it happened.

When the officer asked the Lavoies why it had happened, Tony allegedly said: ‘I don’t know. It just happened.’

The 43-year-old then said he wanted treatment for it, according to police.

Cheryl allegedly told cops the incestuous encounter happened after she and her son had become closer over the last few months and then started kissing.

The mother and son duo were charged with incest – a felony that carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.

They made their first court appearance Thursday where they both pleaded not guilty.

They were arraigned and released on personal recognizance, with the judge ordering the pair to stay away from each other, according to court records. 

The Lavoies are scheduled to appear in court for a pretrial hearing on October 27.
