      XPost: la.general, alt.politics.media, rec.arts.tv.comedy.colbert-report       XPost: dc.politics       From: ed.buck.led.gavin-newsom@disney.com              LaTisha Nixon never thought she would be back to 1234 N. Laurel       Avenue.              Her 26-year-old son, Gemmel Moore, died at this West Hollywood       apartment building two years ago. An LA County coroner's report       determined that Moore died of an accidental drug overdose; the       crystal meth that killed him was injected into his body.              The apartment unit where Moore died belongs to Edward Buck, a       well-known LGBTQ activist in West Hollywood and Democratic party       donor.              Two years later, no one has been charged in Moore’s death,       something that Nixon says she cannot let go.              “I want them to do their job,” Nixon says, flanked by about two       dozen friends, community members, and civil rights activists       last weekend. Her voice is quivering as she battles back tears.              “I want them to look at the evidence and prosecute Ed Buck,”       Nixon says. She's referring to the attorneys inside the LA       County District Attorney’s Office.              They looked at the circumstances surrounding Moore’s death and       determined in 2018 that there was insufficient evidence to       charge Buck with a crime.              But the national spotlight began shining on Buck again earlier       this year when another man, 55-year-old Timothy Dean, died at       his apartment under similar circumstances. He also overdosed on       methamphetamines.              “We just hear the same tired excuse - that they don't have       enough,” says Hussain Turk, an attorney representing Moore’s       family. “Their policy is not caring about the [black and queer]       community, and it's caused the deaths of not one but two… and it       could likely cause the death of a third if an arrest isn’t made.”              There is an ongoing investigation into Dean’s death. The LA       County Sheriff’s Department delivered evidence to the District       Attorney’s Office in early July. Attorneys for the county have       since asked for the sheriff’s department to do more       investigating, including additional forensic analysis,       interviewing more people, and reviewing medical records, says       Greg Risling, Public Information Officer at the District       Attorney's Office.              But Turk says he believes there already is enough evidence for       charges to be filed. He says he recently took a client, whom he       did not name to protect his privacy, to the LA County Sheriff’s       Department station in West Hollywood, who had a similar       experience with Ed Buck.              “He connected with Ed Buck [who] told him that he would hook him       up with a hotel for a couple nights and give him some money if       he came over to hang out,” Turk says.              “He had an extremely harrowing experience when he came over to       Buck's apartment. He was pressured to do drugs that he had never       done before, namely crystal meth.”              Amid the calls for Buck's prosecution, his attorney has       maintained his innocence.              “In spite of all of this, these two individuals were his       friends” says Seymour Amster, Buck’s attorney. “He does have       sorrow for that… but he doesn’t understand why he has become       such a target. He would like to live in peace.”              Amster says that he continues to fight the wrongful death       lawsuit filed against his client and the County of Los Angeles,       among others.              The next hearing in that case is scheduled for this September.              https://www.kcrw.com/news/shows/greater-la/la-activists-call-for-       prosecution-of-ed-buck/will-la-county-prosecute-ed-buck              TAGS: Barack Obama Homosexual Degenerate Gay Pedophile Democrat       Liberalism Pervert CNN CBS ABC NBC Disney MSNBC Faggots Hillary       Clinton Racist Queer Progressive Antifa Faggots NAMBLA                      --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
