One of the boys took out his cellphone and recorded video catching the woman with her pants down as her father stood nearby, the suspects relatives said.
In a short clip of the footage viewed by The Post, a young woman can be seen sitting on the ground rocking back and forth and grinning. There is the sound of young men laughing in the background.
One of the teens says to the older man, Can we have some of that?, according to a law enforcement source.
A teen can then be heard telling the girl, You said, Yeah. Thats what Im saying, its lit [OK], like you know what I mean? I could tell you a freak. Three suspects arrive at Brooklyn Criminal Court.Photo: Paul Martinka
The drunken dad staggered off and, when he returned, threw a beer bottle at the teens, according to law enforcement sources.
The father told cops he eventually went to two nearby delis for help, but workers there have said he was too drunk for them to understand him. In the end, he flagged down a passing patrol car.
The father told cops he fled the rape scene because one of the teens had a gun. A weapon has yet to be recovered.
Phillips brother, Billy Anderson, 24, and mother say the video shows that the boys sex with the girl was consensual and that the victim and her dad made up the rape tale to cover up their actions.
All of that she said is a lie. If that was supposed to be her father, then you know she was in the park fking her father, Anderson said. She was basically telling them, You could do it. This video is basically proving that whatever [their] story is, its false.
Phillips mom, who would not give her name, added, She was laughing, and they walked up on her like that. Thats her! She dont have on no pants. This is before everything. She was out there having sex with the man that say he was her father.

Four of the suspects Cooper, Brown, Phillip and Murray appeared Tuesday night in Brooklyn Criminal Court, where an assistant DA admitted that none of them could be IDd in police line-ups.
Prosecutors requested that Cooper be remanded and the other suspects be held in lieu of $500,000 bail. But the judge ordered that Cooper be held in lieu of $50,000, Brown $25,000 and Phillip and Murray $10,000. Beckford had not yet been arraigned.
A lawyer for Murray said the complaint did not even allege that his client engaged in sexual activity with the victim. Also, a lawyer for Brown blasted the arrests as politically motivated.
The case is weak, said the lawyer, Spencer Leeds.
Police released this surveillance footage of the suspects.
