In a classic rerun of the Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde case, mega
Democratic donor and LGBT political activist Ed Buck was
arrested on Tuesday, September 17, on charges of running a drug
den at his residence in West Hollywood, California. The 65-year-
old has also been accused of administering methamphetamine, and
battery causing serious physical harm. Over the last 18 months
two gay black men have died at Buck’s home after overdosing,
while a third individual almost died. Buck came under scrutiny
after the third case came to light and questions are now being
asked as to how he continued to evade law after the first two
fatalities.

The Buck episode highlights a murky social underbelly that
managed to hide the crimes of powerful people like Harvey
Weinstein and Jeffery Epstein for so long. Like in the case of
Epstein, Buck allegedly targeted members from marginalized
communities and yet escaped law by virtue of his status and
influence. In Buck's case the impact has been felt in political
circles too seeng as he was a major donor for the Democratic
Party.

Buck's goodwill image shattered
Buck had a reputation as a man who worked for the welfare of the
community. Known to have Republican leanings till the 1980s he
later turned towards the Democrats and has donated more than
$500,000 to the party since 2007 funding campaigns at various
levels, Buck even had links with political heavyweights like
former president Barack Obama and presidential candidate Hillary
Clinton.

But then came the deaths of Gemmel Moore, 26, and Timothy Dean,
55, at Buck’s house in July 2017 and January 2019, from drug
overdoses. The two deaths surprisingly didn’t alert authorities
and it was only after the third man, a 37-year-old and referred
to as “Joe Doe”, had a close shave also after being injected
with drugs at Buck’s residence that he was arrested. Court
documents described how Buck would lure vulnerable men to his
apartment for money and shelter and give them large doses of
narcotics to manipulate them into participating in sexual acts
to satisfy his fetishes.

'Buck has a history of isolating black men for predatory sexual
encounters'

LaTisha Nixon, mother of Gemmel, claimed that Buck had bought
her son a plane ticket to travel from Houston, only to then
inject him with crystal methamphetamine. Nixon even said in the
lawsuit filed against Buck that he had a “well-documented
history of isolating black men for predatory sexual encounters”.
Local civil rights activists are relieved that Buck has finally
been nabbed, claiming that they had been highlighting his abuses
for over two years. The arrest of the millionnaire is, for the
black LGBTQ community, a vindication of sorts for it has been
fighting to see Buck behind bars, even while the local
Democratic political leadership and other LGBTQ activists kept
quiet.

Democratic Representative from California Karen Bass didn’t
hesitate to call Buck a “racist sexual predator” and felt it was “incomprehensible” that it took almost a third black life for
the law to finally come down heavily on Buck.

The Right is using the Buck story to corner Democrats in pre-
election season while conspiracy theorists are propagating the
thought that Buck’s arrest was a part of President Donald
Trump’s plan to target the Democratic establishment and send
their members to Guantanamo. Even Obama and Clinton are being
slammed for having kept quiet while many other Democratic
politicians are already distancing themselves from Buck and
channeling his sizeable donations to other charitable causes.

The turn of events further validated Rep. Bass’s observation.
She said everybody knew that Buck preyed on young black men and
official inaction sent out a clear message: “Black gay lives
obviously didn’t matter.”
