We continue of breaking coverage of the Michael Lucas / Brent Corrigan altercation at the GayVN Awards this weekend with a firsthand account of the action told to us by someone who attended the awards show and stayed at the hotel where the alleged “arrest” went down. You can track all the drama at the Lucas Vs. Corrigan QC news page. The attendee’s story starts here: PRE-SHOW MOOD:Michael Lucas entered the hotel on Saturday morning before the award show to an amazing number of loud hisses and whispers from others in the industry, like he Glenn Close in Dangerous Liaisons or something! Wow. Alone in the elevator, he made a brief comment about how he hoped he would win, but was skeptical of the show itself. Ding! His floor and he left… in his signature, diamonds-are-shoved-up-my-ass gait. AT THE SHOW: Once again, people hissed as he walked by (but you have to understand and appreciate that the GayVN Award shows are a bit like “Showtime at the Apollo”—if people don’t like you, they aren’t shy about letting you know. They cat-call, get up, charge the stage (as Michael did), sometimes everyone forgets what they’re doing. The show’s a lovely mess.
Anyway, it was clear Lucas Studios was getting overlooked and Raging Stallion was winning by a landslide… which was also stirring the crowd up. Michael was obviously annoyed as well. While accepting an award in very broken English, he made a subtle jab at Raging Stallion, which many didn’t catch. It was clear at this point that Lucas was searching for a way to stir up, in his classic, any-publicity-is-good-publicity approach of doing business. While Brent Corrigan looked genuinely grateful and stunned for his honors (and the crowd wasn’t entirely supportive of him either), Lucas clearly set his sight on him. And the opportunity came after an excellent announcement from the ASACP (Assoc. of Sites Advocating Child Protection) folks, that Lucas suddenly bolted on stage, took the mic and congratulated the ASACP folks (in perfect English) and the shamed Brent Corrigan and the studios involved with him as being an example of how the industry can exploit underage kids. He was immediately boo’ed and told to get off stage. As Corrigan and others nearly rushed the stage to confront him. But the attempt was immediately and abundantly obvious: He wanted to get his name in the press. Love him or hate him, you’ve got to admire the quick public relations genius he is… his name will be the name you read. In porn, you can’t really get notice from paparazzi shots of your pussy hanging out as you get out of a cab. Instead, Lucas finds any controversy he can. Brent and company were very obviously irritated: he got up and went to get drinks and re-group.
Lucas later apologized for the statement on-stage and wanted it to be clear he wasn’t attacking Brent, but rather the industry as a whole. The apology (in very broken English) fell flat. People were yelling, music was playing. You barely could understand his message. It seemed his final attempt to sealing that he’d make headlines. AFTER THE SHOW: The after-party ended at 4:00am and back to the hotel, two police cars sat outside with cops inside. In the elevator two officers said “no” when asked if anyone was being loud or out of control, but offered not further information. A very drunk (messy) drag queen said, “Sounds like Michael Lucas got in fight”. Now mind you, she was fidgeting with her panty hose (sort of pulling them down) and no one took her very seriously, but it sounds like that might have been “the arrest,” wish we’d have asked more about what was going on.
24-year-old Scott Lamar Abbott (aka “Joe” from Southern Strokes) has been arrested and charged with capital murder for a March 7, 2009 quadruple homicide in Hueytown, Alabama. Jealous rage seems to be the motive as the 6-foot-7-inch Abbott stabbed and slashed four individuals aged 24 to 31 while they sleeping under the same roof. His ex-girlfriend Jeri Lyn Cole, was one of the victims; Ms. Cole, a self-described mother of two, had pictures of herself with Abbott posted on her MySpace page along with mentions of her relationship with someone named Scott. Likewise, Abbott had a photo of himself with a woman who appears to be Cole on his MySpace page, describing him as being “in love with my woman and future wife.”
Abbott had been living at the house until he was asked to leave about two weeks before the murder. Hueytown Police Chief Chuck Hagler believed the killer moved from victim to victim starting about 3 a.m. Saturday, inflicting multiple stab wounds in each. At least one of the victims fought back, Hagler said as Abbott was picked up in Gadsden on Saturday where he had sought treatment for stab wounds, said Hueytown Police Chief Chuck Hagler.
“It was a large, complicated and very violent scene,” Hagler said earlier Sunday. He called it one of the most horrific he had seen in 20 years in law enforcement, “It was worse than any horror movie.” Abbott apparently slashed and stabbed them while they slept early Saturday, March 7, 2009. What follows comes from Hagler’s affidavit:
Around 11:52 a.m., officers were dispatched to 225 Woodland Drive on a welfare check. Mrs. Vicky Shotts, great aunt of Nika Sandlin [one of the murder victims], had gone to the residence (Nika Sandlin’s current residence) to see why Ms. Sandlin had not reported for work earlier that day. Getting no answer at the front door, Mrs. Shotts went to the rear door and found it to be unsecure. She opened the door and immediately saw large amounts of blood in the kitchen area and she called the police department. Several officers responded to the residence and in clearing the house found two white males and two white females deceased inside. All of the victims appeared to have multiple stab/slash wounds and most every room in the residence had large quantities of blood on the floors and walls. I was contacted at approximately 12:00 p.m., and responded to the scene.
Abbot currently resides in the Jefferson County Jail in Bessemer, Alabama. He met with District Judge Eric Fancher by videoconference so that Fancher could read and explain the charges facing him. Apparently, it wasn’t his first arrest for violence:
Abbott was arrested on a domestic violence charge in the northeast Alabama town of Fort Payne in 2004, records show.
How Abbott pleaded in that case is unclear, but Department of Corrections records show Abbott began serving time for a child abuse conviction in DeKalb County in May 2006 and was released nine months later on condition he stay out of trouble.
Parole records indicate that Abbott violated terms of his release and was sentenced to three years imprisonment for child abuse on Aug. 4, 2008. He arrived in state custody on Sept. 16, and his state booking photo showed him with two black eyes. It was unclear what caused the injury.
With more than 800 days of jail time already behind him, Abbott earned another six months of credit for good behavior and finished his sentence on Oct. 23.
Our thoughts are with the families of the deceased. Additional video and Southern Strokes copy on Joe after the jump…

Though only 26, this sexy Hungarian import has fueled fantasies for years. At first as a Bel Ami exclusive, then as a Pacific Sun exclusive. Lucas seldom works with seasoned ‘pros,’…but he thought Roberto’s magnetic eyes and his chiseled physique were well worth an exception.
Jason Sechrest launched DV8 Casting promoting a stable of eight hunky actors. His take is that as a vetted porn publicist he can get the boys play on mainstream venues like the soon-to-be-cancelled Howard Stern show and on other print and web outlets. Sechrest said,
“I want to show who they are behind the scenes so their fans can get to know them and relate to them better. All of this increases public awareness of the performer and the more popular they are, the more their movies are going to sell and the more they are going to be paid.”
Though he’s already placed one of his boys in Jet Set’s “Tackle” and another in Rascal Video’s “Take,” we doubt that behind-the-scenes publicity will really attract a larger fan base and paycheck. How well his models take and give it is really what matters most, right? Phillip Aubrey Ryan Foxxx Josh Griffin Beau Marcus Jason Pitt Shane Risk Mason Ross Josh Vaughn
Apparently Michael Lucas Twittered his crusade against Brent Corrigan before during and after the GayVN awards. Very soon we’ll have first-hand coverage from someone who attended the GayVN and partied in the hotel where the alleged arrest went down… STAY TUNED! In the meanwhile, you can keep up with the Michael Lucas vs. Brent Corrigan coverage at the Lucas Vs. Brent QC news page.
I am literally sitting in an airport as I write this, trying to get it off to all of you before I get home. I have many other things I would like to write about, but this post has been in the can for a few days now and I don’t want to go out of order. On a completely unrelated note, I am pleased and very proud to share great news with all of you! I was awarded three accolades yesterday evening at the GayVN awards. I took home Best Bottom, Best Twink Film of 2009 and Best Professional Amateur Film.
The whole story is to come. For those of you who are catching wind of a minor altercation with Michael Lucas and my boyfriend – More to come on that very soon. At this time it is important that all of you know whatever anyone has said or writtten has been blown completely out of proportion. I have and will continue to conduct myself regarding the matter in a civil and respectable manner.
We’ll keep you posted while doing some digging of our own.
You may have heard that last night at the GayVN Awards that Lucas Entertainment President, Michael Lucas, rushed the stage to tell the audience “shame on you” for awarding Brent Corrigan, someone who put the industry at risk (so says Lucas) by shooting porn before he was of age. It seems like usual Michael Lucas “look at me!” press whoredom, designed to steal the spotlight from Brent and give himself some press. After all, far from “endangering the industry,” only Cobra Films and Corrigan would have to answer for their crimes. Gay porn has a seedy image worldwide and Corrigan’s underage flouting of the law seems but a single log thrown onto the already raging anti-porn bonfire. But Brent’s illegal modeling and Lucas’ outburst are only half the story. According to a Michael Lucas press release issued today, the porn mogul may have made himself some enemies in the process as Corrigan’s boyfriend threatened him afterwards, resulting in his arrest early this morning:
There is nothing new about my campaign against the honoring of Brent Corrigan. I took to the stage to speak out against nominating him, which was made very timely after for the ASACP was recognized for their child protection. In my speech, I said shame on those who nominated and awarded Corrigan. There should be no forgiveness for the companies and individual who put the industry in danger.
Let me make it clear right away that I have no personal vendetta against Brent—I’ve never even spoke to him. My purpose is to protect this industry fromjuveniles and set the standard rule for not accepting the risk they put us allin. We can not forget the crimes he committed because they are in the past. He is of age now—I get that but he could have put a lot of people in jail for hiscrimes to get where he is now. We can not let this precedent stand as a protocol for young boys looking to follow in his path.
During my call to action Corrigan’s boyfriend rushed to the stage and started yelling insanely at me to get off the microphone. As I was leaving the theatre, several people were warning me to watch my back, as some overheard Corrigan’s boyfriend making threats to my address. Among all the scattered lunacy, people were saying THANK YOU for having the courage to say what I did. I didn’t see my statement as too heroic at that point. I simply exercised my right of free speech and I strongly believe in the importance ofmy message. The adult industry shouldn’t award models who work when they’re underage and forge their identification.
Conversely, and apparent in this occasion, speaking your mind can be dangerous. At the after party, Corrigan’s boyfriend came up to me and bumped his chest against mine. I do not know the boyfriend’s name but I know that it’s not his ex Grant Roy. This guy was a buff Latin male that appears to be in his thirties. He then threatened that he was
going to kill me and demand that we leave the club together immediately so that he could break my neck. The club’s security swiftly came and separated him; he came back and told me that he will splash acid into my face, “which will be the end of your career.” I called the police immediately when I reached the hotel and recalled to them what happened. The cops went to Corrigan’s room, but the couple was still out partying elsewhere.
I called the police at 7:00 am, San Francisco time, as soon as I found out that they were back in their room (I simply called the room and Corrigan pickedup the phone). The police were there within ten minutes. They talked to Corrigan and his boyfriend for about twenty minutes, and then handcuffed the boyfriend and took him into custody.
Corrigan has a history of choosing violent boyfriends.During a 12-hour cross examination at the Kocis murder trial, Grant Roy, admitted to saying several times, he wanted to kill Kocis. So now, the new boyfriend was threatening to kill me. There’s a certain pattern here. I was really impressed by the work of the police department. They were very professional and very polite. They were extremely concerned and worked fast and effectively. They asked me if I would be willing to fly to California in the case of a trial, and I said absolutely, as I don’t take threats to my life very cavalier.
I’ve written about it and spoken about it for years, and I’m not about to stop any time soon. I think Mickey Skee asked me about the point of forgiveness for Corrigan. Not in my case, as I’m a producer and a company owner. It’s my nightmare to have an underage performer with fictitious identification working for me. Does anyone want to go to jail for a defiant and impatient juvenile? I certainly don’t, no matter how adorable the boy is. We should be protecting youth and protecting ourselves. There is no performer who is worth losing freedom for. Let’s be strong in our dedication to take the cliché out of porn being an underground and dangerous business, which uses and abuses minors.
Also, whoever witnessed the threats and said events at the party, please contact me. I have witnesses now, but it’s always great to have more.
Rico is sexy local who has been on CJB a time or two and has quite the fan following. The only thing hotter than Rico’s fan base are his friends. He was last there in a hot 3 way stroke off with two other hot, str8 buds.
One look at that smirk on Marcus’ face assures you that this boy is trouble. The kind of trouble that gets him in all sorts of predicaments; such as hiding buck ass naked and rock hard in a closet at a family reunion. The best part is his “cousins” mom banging on the door knowing what he’s up to. Good times!
You may know Alan Ritchson’s sexy ass from his start in the Ambercrombie and Fitch catalog, his strip-teasing for Paula Abdul in the third season of American Idol, his modeling for International Jock, or playing Arthur Curry (aka Aquaman) in the TV show, Smallville. Alan’s got a splendid, chiseled physique you really should get a closer look at. Here’s Alan in a lovely wrestling singlet without the support of a jock strap. Lucky for us because we get to see his ample bulge without interference. Looks like his cock, even when flaccid, is still long enough to wrap around his nutsack to his ass. We wonder how long that monster must be when erect… yow!
