The Gay Thread

[innerSpaceman]

The Rekers story has given me an ear-to-ear smile for many days, but some inevitably sad aspects are surfacing.

First, the story of the family that Rekers tried to break up with his $87,000 paid testimony against the 10-years that saved these boys lives. Rekers said the boys would get over being ripped apart from their dads within a year. My friend Rob Tisinai has posted a relevant tale from the trial transcripts here on his blog. Bring a hankie.


Then, some snippets from a very recent telephone conversation between Rekers and his rent boy, Jo-Vanni. The kid is clearly distressed and in over his head, and Rekers is clearly a disgusting manipulator, out to save his own ass at all costs, and admits he's done this kind of thing before. Perhaps instead of Baptist preacher/fraudulent ex-gay therapist, he should have chosen Roman Catholic priest as his career if he was so set on ruining the lives of young men while ensconced in a self-loathing closet. Check it out here, at Towleroad.

Wow .... and just wow.
