On the morning of Halloween, the man accusing Butler of rape was in protective custody after allegedly getting drunk and flooding a motel room bathroom at the Clipper Ship Inn.
The man was reportedly naked in his cell after taking off his wet clothes to try and sleep, the assistant Essex County District Attorney, A.J. Camelio told the Herald.
Butler, who is now on paid administrative leave, told investigators that he had been drinking as it was the day before his birthday.
The man told authorities in an affidavit that Butler fondled him under a blanket that he was given to cover up with while he called his family.
Butler's accuser then said the officer took him into a broom closet and raped him, according to the Herald.
'In fear, I said yes. After a few seconds I tried to pull away, then I asked him to stop. I asked him to stop three times and by the 3rd time he did and he took me back to my cell,' the accuser wrote, according to the Herald.
Video and audio surveillance of Butler and the accuser 'confirms nearly everything that the victim did tell the police', Camelio said.
Butler was ordered held on $10,000 cash bail, which he posted soon after.
