How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
A few years ago Scott was involved in a car accident that left him in pretty bad shape but he recovered from that. Last year he got into trouble again only this time he got arrested by the police. The news about his death, which apparently occurred last month in Arizona, come [sic] right after those legal issues and the alleged cause was an overdose.
Memorial services were held on February 14th in San Diego, where Scott lived.
His Facebook page shows condolences for Scott’s family:

I was waiting for Queerty to post this and see who the first to say something sarcastic about another gay adult entertainer dying of an overdose.
He died a mont ago. He hasn’t done anything in the industry since at least 2012. He’s a former adult entertainer. But that doesn’t get the nasty trolls as much…

I am not going to post a rude or condescending remark. We cannot judge the life of others and say what they should or shouldn’t be doing. The poor guy did seem to be going down the wrong path and I wish everyone could always find opportunities and get on the right track. Maybe we need to look at our community more and establish more avenues for long term stability and success. Maybe more scholarships and grants.
BTW I used to play Doom when I was younger too. Cool game. Just saw that in the story.

A good looking guy. I haven’t watched commercial porn in years (although I do wank it to some amateur porn once in awhile), but I’m just not familiar with this current crop of porn stars. I bet life insurance companies avoid selling to gay porn star like the plague……that’s about all I can say. RIP.

Sadly, some people make wrong decisions along the way and it leads to a shortened existence. Condolences to the Cohen family and may peace be with them.

I know not one gay male who hasn’t/isn’t watching gay porn yet when one dies for whatever reason jerks talk about their lifestyle. Kettle….Black!
