   LOS ANGELES — A black member of Congress on Wednesday called it   
   "incomprehensible" that after the overdose deaths of two African   
   American men at the apartment of wealthy and influential Los   
   Angeles area gay activist Edward Buck, a third man nearly died   
   there before authorities arrested Buck.   
      
   The men died in 2017 and early 2019 but Buck skirted charges   
   until prosecutors announced his arrest late Tuesday after the   
   latest overdose victim escaped Buck's West Hollywood home   
   despite what officials called efforts by Buck to prevent him   
   from leaving.   
      
   "It's incomprehensible to me that it took a third black gay 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," said Democratic U.S. Rep. Karen Bass,   
   whose district lies just south of West Hollywood. "Everyone knew   
   that he preyed on young black men. ... The inaction in response   
   had a message was loud and clear: Black gay lives obviously   
   didn't matter."   
      
   In court documents, authorities said Buck used his position of   
   power to manipulate male victims into participating in sexual   
   fetishes that involved injecting them with methamphetamine,   
   adding that he "has no regard for human life."   
      
   Buck was charged with operating a drug house, furnishing   
   methamphetamine and with battery causing serious bodily injury.   
   He was awaiting arraignment. Messages to his attorney, Seymour   
   Amster, were not immediately returned.   
      
   Buck, 65, has donated tens of thousands of dollars to California   
   candidates, including Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, and is well   
   known in LGBTQ political circles.   
      
   Buck remained in custody Wednesday and prosecutors argued in   
   court documents that he should be held on $4 million bail   
   because he is a "violent, dangerous sexual predator" who offered   
   drugs, money and shelter to mainly addicted and homeless men in   
   exchange for participating in sexual fetishes. One fetish   
   involved administering dangerous doses of drugs, the documents   
   said.   
      
   Buck came under investigation in January after 55-year-old   
   Timothy Dean was found dead of an accidental methamphetamine   
   overdose in his apartment. In July 2017, Gemmel Moore, 26, also   
   died from a methamphetamine overdose at Buck's home.   
      
   Both men were black. Buck, who is white, was not charged and   
   critics later questioned if wealth, race or political ties   
   influenced the investigation.   
      
   Moore's mother, LaTisha Nixon, "is relieved that Ed Buck is no   
   longer on the streets and free to continue harming black men,"   
   her lawyer, Hussain Turk, said Wednesday.   
      
   "She is also disappointed that the county's criminal charges   
   against Ed Buck do not include charges for homicide," Turk said.   
      
   The investigation into the deaths continues, county district   
   attorney's spokesman Greg Risling said.   
      
   Buck's attorney, Amster, had said Dean came to Buck's home under   
   the influence and did not ingest any drugs while there.   
      
   But prosecutors in court documents blamed Buck's actions for the   
   two deaths and alleged he personally gave a dangerous dose of   
   methamphetamine to an unnamed man who survived an overdose   
   earlier this month.   
      
   On Sept. 11, the man returned and Buck injected him with two   
   more dangerous doses, refused to help him and "thwarted" his   
   efforts to get help until the man fled the apartment and called   
   911 from a gas station, prosecutors alleged.   
      
   "His deadly behavior has not stopped," prosecutors said in the   
   court documents.   
      
   Buck's "predatory acts and willful disregard for human life must   
   be stopped before another life is lost," the documents said.
