   Protests erupted Tuesday outside the West Hollywood home of   
   prominent Democratic donor Ed Buck, with activists calling for   
   Buck's arrest after a man was found dead in the apartment early   
   Monday -- 17 months after a deceased male escort was discovered   
   there.   
      
   "Arrest Ed Buck, prosecute Ed Buck, and then a jury needs to   
   convict Ed Buck," activist Jasmyne Cannick said to the crowd   
   gathering outside the California apartment Monday night. "This   
   man has had two dead bodies in his house, and he is still in his   
   house."   
      
   Said another demonstrator: "This man is a danger to our   
   community."   
      
   Neighbors of Buck's, who were drawn out of their homes as a   
   result of the protest, said they have the same questions as   
   everyone else and have made their own calls to police, according   
   to FOX11.   
      
   Attorney Seymour Amster, Buck's attorney, confirmed the most   
   recent death to Fox News and said the unidentified victim was a   
   "longtime friend" who had known Buck for 25 years. Amster said   
   the victim "reached out for [Buck's] help" Sunday night and   
   began acting "in a bizarre way" after he arrived at Buck's   
   apartment.   
      
   "As far as we're concerned, this is an accidental death," said   
   Amster, who added police had released the scene and Buck was not   
   under arrest.

   527 people are talking about this   
   The man's identity and cause of death have not been released.   
      
   "The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Homicide Bureau has responded   
   to the location and Investigators are conducting a thorough   
   investigation," police said in a statement obtained by Fox News.   
      
   A resident who lives in the area told KTLA she was walking her   
   dogs around 12:15 a.m. Monday when she saw the individual enter   
   Buck's home.   
      
   "I woke up to find out that he didn't come out," she told the   
   station.   
      
   The Sheriff's Office also said they are now taking a second look   
   at the death of Gemmel Moore -- the male escort whose body was   
   found in Buck's apartment in July 2017 -- in the wake of   
   Monday's discovery.   
      
   Buck, a well-known figure in LGBT political circles, has given   
   more than $500,000 to a range of Democratic groups and   
   candidates — including former President Barack Obama, former   
   Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Los Angeles Mayor Eric   
   Garcetti.   
      
   In July of last year, prosecutors declined to file charges   
   against Buck in the death of Moore. According to a coroner's   
   report, Buck's apartment was full of drug paraphernalia,   
   including 24 syringes containing brown residue, five glass pipes   
   with white residue and burn marks, a plastic straw with possible   
   white residue, clear plastic bags with white powdery residue and   
   a clear plastic bag containing a piece of crystal-like substance.   
      
   Gemmel Moore, 26, was found dead at Buck's West Hollywood   
   apartment on July 27, 2017.

   Moore's death initially was ruled an accidental methamphetamine   
   overdose, but the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Office re-opened   
   the investigation after writings in Moore's journal implicated   
   Buck in his drug use.   
      
   In a December 2016 entry, Moore wrote: "I’ve become addicted to   
   drugs and the worst one at that. Ed Buck is the one to thank. He   
   gave me my first injection of crystal meth it was very painful,   
   but after all the troubles, I became addicted…”   
      
   In his final entry, on Dec. 3, 2016, Moore wrote: "If it didn’t   
   hurt so bad, I’d kill myself, but I’ll let Ed Buck do it for   
   now."   
      
   At the time, Amster told Fox News the investigation into Moore's   
   death had "turned into an attack on Mr. Buck’s personal life."   
      
   "This was an accidental overdose that Ed Buck had nothing to do   
   with and it’s a tragedy,” Amster told Fox News after prosecutors   
   declined to file charges.   
      
   After Fox News reported on the investigation, at least six   
   Democrats in California and Arizona confirmed they had returned   
   or redirected donations from Buck.
