PA. Man, 80, Admits Dealing Crack for Sex
Washington Post ^ | 07/12/2006 | AP

Posted on 07/12/2006 6:49:01 PM PDT by KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle

An 80-year-old man acknowledged Wednesday that he dealt drugs at his house in return for sex with prostitutes. Felix Cocco of Pittsburgh pleaded guilty to charges of possession of a controlled substance, possession with intent to deliver and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Police said Cocco had been dealing drugs for nearly a year when he was arrested in November. Officers seized crack cocaine, a digital scale and packaging materials, police said. Authorities said they caught Cocco dealing again in February.

When an Allegheny County judge asked Cocco why he chose a new profession so late in life, Cocco replied, "I was trying to stay alive, your honor _ pay my bills."

Cocco's lawyer, Martha Bailor, told the court her client wanted to remain sexually active after his wife died three years ago, and turned to prostitutes.

"He decided it's cheaper to pay for sex with crack than cash," she said.

Prosecutors said they would not seek mandatory sentences if the defense agreed to a six-to-18-month jail term.

The judge ordered an evaluation of Cocco's health after Bailor expressed concern about Cocco's vulnerability in jail.

I hope I can still get it up when I'm 80.

Heck, I hope I'm still alive at 80.

Maybe I hope I get shot by a jealous husband at 80. With a glass of really good champagne in my hand and a smile on my face.

Funny criticism from a guy who's tagline is "It's BOOTY TIME."

Particularly when you're waving double handfuls of crack cocaine around, crying: "C'mon an' git some, ladies! M'ticker could give out any moment now!" in a thin, querulous voice. :)
