Democratic donor Ed Buck facing new charges for prostitution, fatal drug overdose

4 Aug 2020 ~~ By Vincent Barone
Disgraced Democratic donor Ed Buck has been charged with four more felonies, including enticing victims to travel interstate for prostitution.
The Justice Department announced Tuesday that a Los Angeles federal grand jury returned an updated indictment with the additional felony charges, bringing a total of nine counts against Buck, 65, before he is scheduled to head to trial in January.
Prosecutors have alleged Buck operated a drug den in his West Hollywood home, where he administered methamphetamine to men against their will during sexual encounters.
Among the new charges, prosecutors claim Buck knowingly lured one of his victims, Gemmel Moore, 26, to travel to Los Angeles, where Buck provided methamphetamine to Moore who then fatally overdosed on July 27, 2017.
Buck is also responsible for the fatal overdose of another victim, Timothy Dean who died in Buck’s apartment, on January 7, 2019, prosecutors believe.

The high-profile political donor is being held in federal custody without bond.
Comment:
The number of people higher up the food chain Ed Buck has given up? Zero. All you need to know. It would be a shame if he committed "suicide" while he was in Fed custody.
