Guilty. That's the verdict jurors came up with for former porn actor Timothy Boham, aka Marcus Allen, in the murder trial of John Kelso, who was found dead in his bathtub back in 2006. Evidently, jurors did not believe he committed suicide — the defense's, uh, defense. With a first degree murder conviction, 28-year-old Boham will spend the rest of his life behind bars. And remember why folks like us even care: Because once upon a time, he boinked boys.

What a waste, young, handsome and apparently, fucked up…sorry, but dude's gonna be fighting 'em off in jail for the rest of his life…sad. What's up with so many porn stars being so capable of violence? I really don't get it. There have been, like, at least 5 or 6 serious felonies commited by porn stars in the last year…Is porn as destructive as the sex-phobes say? I hope not, I'll have to find a new part-time hobby ;>
For those of you who do not have much time I thought I would post part of the article associated with one of the links featured in this post. This looser got just what he deserved. I mean really, shooting you own mother and sister?? You have problems sweetie that you can now spend the rest of your life contemplating on what might have been but now never will be.
He was accused of shooting Kelso in the head on November 13, 2006 at his house. "According to testimony, Boham returned to the house several times to clean the body of fingerprints and to remove clothing, bedding, a shell casing and other material," the Post reports.
Boham stole Kelso's safe and cut it open, believing it contained as much as $400,000. But it was empty save for some paperwork.
He later admitted to the shooting of his mother and sister and fled to Arizona, where he was arrested at the U.S.-Mexico border and returned to Colorado. "He confessed to police during a videotaped interview, which was played to jurors. His mother, sister and former girlfriend all testified against him during the five-day trial," according to the Post.
These boys wouldn't be so desperate if porn actually paid well. The pay is flat fee per scene/film with no residuals, so the producers rake in all the cash. No wonder the unstable types get resentful and murderous.
@Qjersey: Really? Your comment is that he became a murderer because of a bad paying job?
@Fitz: agreeing with Fitz. The pay scale of porn is not a valorous justification for this man's actions. His porn career probably has little to do with it either. Murder is not something that happens because people are frustrated with their career choices.
We are all capable of violence. Porn stars just have to erode their inhibitions. When you start eroding your inhibitions you are left with nothing stopping you from doing the things you desire to do. So, you go from thinking you want to kill a person to doing it. It probably doesn't help that many younger gay men have a prison fetish for some reason.
> It probably doesn't help that many younger gay men have a prison fetish for some reason.
I've had such a fetish / fantasy since I was 11 or 12 and for over 41 years. This is NOT new. I know guys and girls into the scene from the age of 18 – 86.
Most do not want anything to do with breaking the law as that can break the fantasy. BTW, even some former or current government officials share this fantasy. Honestly, the guy or girl beside you might share this fantasy; you never know.
Living in NYC and working in nightlife on the financial end I have met many escorts and go go boys and porn "stars" and have noticed they all share one thing in common: THEY ARE ALL SCREWED UP IN SOME WAY OR ANOTHER. All seem to have sociopathic traits. It is just that some turn up the volume on these sociopathic traits and do horrible things. As the saying goes: "neurosis is building castles in the air. Psychoses is moving into them." This guy was building castles in the air if he thought that he was going to get ahead in life doing porn. The guys that objectify themselves lose their humanity the minute they take off their clothes and become objects. The are no longer people but rather they become things, and "things" don't have souls and that is the definition of a sociopath.
