Ed Buck’s apartment, unit No. 17, is at the top right corner of
the building at 1234 N. Laurel Ave.
Ed Buck is out.
An L.A. County District Court judge has granted a petition by
the lawyer for David Shane Enterprises that will let it proceed
with the eviction of Buck from his apartment at 1234 N. Laurel
Ave.
Shane Enterprises filed a lawsuit 0n Oct. 3 seeking to evict
Buck, citing a variety of issues including nuisance behavior,
drug-related activity in Buck’s apartment, and the drug-related
deaths there of two gay African-American men. Those deaths, and
allegations that Buck paid other young African-American sex
workers to do drugs with him at his apartment, were reported by
news organizations around the world that called out his status
as an affluent gay white man who was a frequent donor to
Democratic Party candidates.
Buck currently is housed in the federal Metropolitan Detention
Center in downtown Los Angeles awaiting trial in August 2020 on
federal charges of providing drugs resulting in death and three
counts of distributing methamphetamine. The deaths are those of
Gemmel Moore, 26, a young black sex-worker, on July 27, 2017,
and Timothy Dean, 50, also black, who had worked at Saks Fifth
Avenue in Beverly Hills and was found dead in Buck’s apartment
on Jan. 7 of this year.
Those deaths sparked a number of protests outside the Laurel
Avenue apartment building that attracted Los Angeles television
crews and reporters from publications such as the Los Angeles
Times the U.K.’s Daily Mail. Buck was often inside his
apartment, unit No. 17, during the demonstrations and covered
his second-floor windows with bedsheets while they took place.
Buck has been in the one-bedroom, rent-stabilized apartment
since April 1, 1993. It is not clear what rent he was paying.
While Buck has been described as wealthy, his apartment
apparently was quite modest. Photos taken there by other sex
workers show a nearly empty living room with a couch and a
mattress on the floor.
Buck fought the eviction and was represented by Seymour Amster,
the lawyer known for having represented Lonnie David Franklin
Jr., better known by the nickname Grim Sleeper, who was
convicted of having committed at least ten murders around Los
Angeles from 1988 to 2002. WEHOville has been unable to reach
Amster for a comment on the eviction decision.
Shane Enterprises was represented by Ryan Block of Dennis P.
Block & Associates. Dennis Block said the next steps are
getting rid of Buck’s possessions, which will be handed over to
the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
The eviction is likely to please Buck’s neighbors, who
petitioned Shane Enterprises after the Jan. 7 death of Timothy
Dean. Christopher Shane responded with a letter citing the
difficulty of evicting a tenant in California. “Under the law, a suspect/defendant is ‘presumed innocent until proven guilty,
beyond a reasonable doubt.’ Attempts to evict a suspect who is
presumed innocent will likely be met with a vigorous defense and
retaliatory action,” he wrote. “If an action to evict is
initiated, we want reasonable assurances that we will prevail.”
