WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA — Los Angeles County District Attorney Jackie
Lacey says errors committed by Sheriff's deputies and a
coroner's office investigator may have played a significant role
in the decision not to criminally charge Ed Buck in the death of
a man who overdosed in his West Hollywood home in 2017.

Speaking Monday night to the Los Angeles chapter of the
Stonewall Democratic Club, which posted a video of the event to
Facebook, Lacey told the group that responding deputies
illegally searched a red toolbox inside Buck's home that was
found near the body of Gemmel Moore in July 2017, the Los
Angeles Times reported. The deputies, who were assigned to the
West Hollywood station, did so based on the erroneous advice of
a coroner's department investigator at the scene, she said.

"They noticed around Mr. Moore's body that there was a red
toolbox. And they wanted to search that toolbox for evidence. A
coroner's investigator gave them information that turned out to
be incorrect," she said.

Moore's death in 2017 has long served as a crucible for Lacey,
who has repeatedly been blasted by activists in the LGBT and
African American communities for failing to hold Buck
accountable for alleged predatory behavior toward young men.
Another man, Timothy Dean, died of an overdose in Buck's home in
January of this year and a third man nearly suffered the same
fate in September, according to court records.

Many activists have argued that the gap in status between Buck,
a wealthy Democratic donor, and his victims, many of whom had
been homeless and people of color, played a role in the decision
not to prosecute him.

Buck was arrested in September, more than two years after
Moore's death, and charged with running a drug den. A short time
later, federal prosecutors charged Buck with providing the drugs
that led to both Moore's and Dean's deaths as well as three
counts of drug distribution.

Buck faces a minimum of 20 years in federal prison if convicted.
His attorney, Seymour Amster, has repeatedly declined to comment.

The details of the federal indictment only intensified questions
about why it took so long to charge Buck, despite the fact that
several men had come forward and claimed Buck engaged in
predatory behavior and injected them with drugs against their
will.

Prosecutors cited an "inadmissible search and seizure" among the
reasons not to prosecute Buck in connection with Moore's death
when they filed a memo declining to charge him with manslaughter
in 2018. But neither Lacey nor the Sheriff's Department has
answered questions beyond that one document.
