   Federal authorities announced criminal action against prominent   
   Democratic donor Ed Buck Thursday, who was already charged in   
   state court in connection with the drug overdose of a man in his   
   West Hollywood apartment, multiple law enforcement sources told   
   NBC News.   
      
   Authorities said that Buck has been charged in U.S. District   
   Court with distribution of methamphetamine resulting in death.   
      
   Felony charges were filed Tuesday against Buck, who is accused   
   of causing the drug overdose of a man inside his West Hollywood   
   apartment last week. The charges made public Tuesday evening   
   come after two men overdosed on illegal drugs and died inside   
   Buck's apartment.   
      
   No charges have been filed in direct connection with those cases.   
      
   Human Trafficking Law Violations Added to Suit Against Ed   
   Buck[LA] Human Trafficking Law Violations Added to Suit Against   
   Ed Buck   
   New accusations of human trafficking have been added to the   
   lawsuit filed against political activist and donor Ed Buck. Eric   
   Leonard reports for the NBC4 News at 5 p.m. on Monday, July 8,   
   2019.(Published Tuesday, July 9, 2019)   
   Buck, 65, was wearing a protective blue vest during his first   
   appearance in state court Thursday. He did not enter pleas.   
      
   His defense attorney, Seymour Amster, said it was, "too   
   premature," to discuss the charges filed by the district   
   attorney. As for the federal case, Buck's attorney said he had   
   just learned about it.   
      
   "They're two separate sovereigns and they each have an   
   independent right to do separate prosecutions," said Amster.   
   "That's something we'll deal with."   
      
   Human Trafficking Law Violations Added to Suit Against Ed Buck   
   Buck was charged this week with operating a drug house and   
   providing methamphetamine to a third man who survived an   
   overdose Sept. 11. Prosecutors argued in an initial court filing   
   that Buck is a, "violent, dangerous sexual predator," and a   
   danger to the community.   
      
   Buck, through his defense attorney Seymour Amster, has denied   
   any role in the earlier deaths of Gemmel Moore in 2017 and   
   Timothy Dean in 2019. Both men died of methamphetamine overdoses   
   while inside Buck’s residence, located on the second floor of a   
   nondescript apartment building on Laurel Avenue.   
      
   The three felony charges filed this week include one count of   
   battery with serious bodily injury, one count of selling a   
   controlled substance, and one count of "maintaining a place for   
   selling or using controlled substance," also referred to as   
   maintaining a drug house.   
      
   Mother Wants Justice for Son Found Dead in Ed Buck's Apartment   
   According to the LA County District Attorney’s Office the   
   charges stem from the September 4 and 11 near-death overdoses of   
   a man identified only as, “Joe Doe.” During two alleged visits   
   to the Laurel apartment, Buck, “personally and intentionally   
   injected,” doses of methamphetamine into Joe, causing overdose   
   symptoms that required emergency medical help on both occasions.   
      
   Moore’s mother, LaTisha Nixon, sued Buck and the DA’s office   
   earlier this year with the hope of pushing prosecutors to   
   reinvestigate and file charges in her son’s death, which was   
   initially classified as, ‘accidental.’ Court filings from the   
   DA’s office repeatedly mention Moore’s overdose, but the   
   criminal counts do not directly relate to the death.   
      
   "It's incomprehensible to me that it took a third man to be   
   attacked and almost die to finally dissolve the unconscionable   
   apathy that has allowed Ed Buck, a racist sexual predator, to   
   roam free," LA area Democratic Congresswoman Karen Bass said in   
   a statement and in social media messages. "Everyone knew that he   
   preyed on young Black men — two died in his apartment. The   
   inaction in response had a message that was loud and clear:   
   Black gay lives obviously didn't matter."   
      
   Law enforcement sources have told NBC LA that homicide   
   detectives have accelerated efforts in recent weeks to interview   
   other men who said Buck had allegedly paid them to use drugs and   
   perform sex acts. Some of those men were granted immunity in   
   order to secure their testimony.
