The $1.5 million extortion case between Sean Cody stud Teofil Brank (a.k.a. Jarec Wentworth) and gay Republican millionaire Donald Burns just got a whole lot juicer. And way more expensive.
According to recently released documents obtained by none other than Str8UpGayPorn, during Brank’s FBI investigation earlier this year, one of his colleagues, gay adult film actor Justin Griggs, told detectives about his own clandestine relationship with another high profile businessman.

It’s unclear how the subject even came up, but during cross examination, Griggs testified that he had recently undergone “dental work,” which he claimed was paid for by a “friend.”
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.
“You mentioned you didn’t want to give details about an individual because he was very powerful and you feared for your safety if you disclose information,” attorneys asked. “Who were you talking about there?”
Griggs hesitated, then replied: “David Geffen.”
That’s right. David Geffen. The 72-year-old, $6.9 billion music mogul and philanthropist with great taste in gentlemen.
According to documents, the billionaire’s only involvement in the case (so far) is that he possibly bankrolled Brank’s friend Griggs’ alleged “dental work.” And at this point it is just Griggs’ word. There’s no collaborating evidence. And, frankly, we don’t trust him as far as we could throw him.
But, honestly, this trial is getting so bat-shit-Lifetime-movie-of-the-week crazy that who knows what will be revealed next.
We’re waiting for the other shoe to drop. And we’ll be sure to keep you posted.

So?? Pretty is pretty and sometimes it costs !!

So what? Aren’t you allowed to pay for the dental treatment of a friend?

The other shoe done dropped.
Brank was found guilty on all charges today, he’s facing 6 to 9 years.

Billionaires, both gay and straight, buy whatever and whomever they want. It’s the nature of the beast.
On a side note… if consensual prostitution were legal (and de-stigmatized) in the other 49 states, this type of thing might not be so common.

What about David Geffen’s past would make you think he WOULDN’T be associating with rough trade and near underage porn stars?
Milton Appleby
This gross and sad. Sad because these wealthy men are so desperate for attention they have to pay for it. Gross because it’s these type of men that make us look bad. That goes for both straight and gay.

@Cam: ” near underage porn stars”…is that like being a little bit pregnant?

@Cam: I think your jumping to conclusions here. All that was said was that he was helping him out with dental work.
I’m just glad that there are these wealthy do good gooders out there. Look at Calvin Klein and his former BF Nick Gruber and his new chompers. That’s real love there.

If it exceeds IRS annual gift limits, the donor probably has to pay taxes on it.

I have been hearing for years that in reality Geffen is a gay Meyer Lansky and there really is a “velvet” mafia in the entertainment industry. Considering the shit that Phil Spector got away with until he killed the wrong person makes me believe it. I don’t give one damn how many women Spector allegedly bedded that man had gay in neon lights sitting in the middle of his forehead.

Maybe Geffen just likes the feel of smooth teeth.

Debauchery matches with deranged mind.

@Stache99:
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nice!

This should not be surprising to anyone that Geffen pays for male whores.
dont eat that elmer
It’s corroborating evidence, not collaborating evidence.

@Milton Appleby: Please read Ladbroke’s comment. He could afford to buy what he would never get free. Rich people do that. It has nothing to do with you or Gay men in general. What is sad is that most people are superficial and vain which causes being young, good looking and/or having a big dick more important than almost anything in our society. Most people buy into this albeit unconsciously which is why Mr Burns wanted the handsome boys in the first place. Sex after all would feel just the same with a less attractive person.

Unless Geffen was being extorted as well, I don’t see the problem. He bought a sex worker pal some new teeth. Good for them.
Given what Geffen probably has to offer in the bedroom department, I’m sure that was quite a bargain for the sex worker.
Blackceo
David Geffen is so messy lol

@Milton Appleby: Get over it. Straight rich men and women have been keeping pretty young playmates forever. Do you honestly think Donald Trump attracts pretty women with his looks and winning personality?
