In a strange turn, a new report says the prime suspect in the July 8 murder of a gay man in Virginia worked as a sex worker on the popular site Rent.Men.
The Washington Blade reports that police arrested Joshua Hunter, 22, and Gavin Collins, 21, both of Sterling, Virginia in connection with the murder of Jose Menendez. The pair met Menendez the early morning of July 8 and attempted to rob him. During the encounter, Menendez was shot and killed. Law enforcement charged both suspects with First Degree Murder, Conspiracy to Commit Robbery and two counts of Using a Firearm while in the Commission of a Felony in connection with Menendez’s death.

The Washington Blade also reports than an anonymous tip provided a link to Hunter’s Rent.Men profile where he operated under the name Anthony Adams for at least two years. At the time of this writing, it appears Hunter’s profile has been deleted. According to The Washington Blade, it contained numerous nude images of the man, as well as advertised massage, stripper and sexual services.

“Currently serving the DMV area (Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia),” he stated on the profile. “I love meeting new people, and having relaxing and enjoyable meetings with great people! 🙂 All of my photos and statistics are recent, up to date, and accurate. I’m a very open person with no hang-ups. I’m open to all genders, and am open to meeting with individuals, same-sex couples, and heterosexual couples. I‘m also available for travel as well.”
Customers also gave Hunter positive reviews.
Police have declined to comment if investigators have linked Hunter’s Rent.Men profile to the murder of Menendez. They have also declined to comment if they are classifying the murder as a hate crime.

HdTex: (Pat, pat) Says the one who couldn’t even pay for it. Strangely, I’ve never actually heard a coherent thought or complete sentence come from your keyboard. I guess dumb and ugly are, unfortunately, both your curses. Too bad, but since you also got nasty it sounds like you deserve it.

That ugly POS would have to pay ME.

Naw, I saw your photo over at JMG way back when. You’d still owe him a fortune and several hours of begging.

ThinkPlease is still bitter that even his dog wouldn’t lick it….even with a ton of peanut butter on it.

Only you would think of that. I wonder where that thought came from? Oh…right…you tried it. The bridge is back thataway. If you go back under it, thou mayst charge a penny to all who pass. Alas, you still will never earn enough for anybody to give you any.

Something’s missing here. That being said, did the victim meet these guys in a public place, bar or restaurant that common sense tells you to do when meeting someone from an on line site tells you to do before anything happens. Never, ever meet at their place or yours as you don’t know them from Adam and if things go bad, there could be problems. By meeting the first time in public, you can get a feel for things and if it feels strange or for whatever reason , time to bail, no excuses needed. This simple caveat is on all dating and hookup sites in dating safety tips.

What a dumbass. If you plan to kill someone it’s probably best to not leave a trail back to you. On Rentmen they’re still going to need a a Credit Card which has everything about you on it.
