Dems donor Ed Buck and the rise of LGBTQ ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement in West Hollywood
Buck’s attorney, Seymour Amster, could not be reached for comment Wednesday. In the past, he has said his client was a man with a “heart of gold” who invited troubled people into his home to help them.
Rep. Karen Bass told The Times. “I think if he had been victimizing young white men, there would’ve been an outrage.” Jerome Kitchen, left, and Steven Martin join a coalition of sexual assault survivors and LGBTQ advocacy organizations at a February rally outside West Hollywood City Hall. “People want to be reelected,” he said. “Before election season, or campaign season, really started, they ignored the facts of this case. They allowed two men, two black gay men, to die in [Buck’s] home without intervening. That is a problem.”
When a second man — Timothy Dean, 55 — died of an overdose in January, the Sheriff’s Department said it would take another look at the first case. The lawsuit accuses Buck of sexual assault, battery and wrongful death, among other claims, and faults Lacey’s office for failing to prosecute Buck despite the two fatal overdoses in his apartment.
