WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — When the lifeless body of a 26-year-old man was found two years ago in the apartment of Ed Buck, a small-time Democratic donor and political activist, the authorities described it as an accidental overdose. Then, in January, a 55-year-old fashion consultant died in Mr. Buck’s home in exactly the same way. Once again, he faced no charges.
On Tuesday, after a third man survived a methamphetamine overdose in the apartment, Mr. Buck was finally arrested and hauled away in the back of a police car.
The sordid facts — and Mr. Buck’s seeming double life — are the stuff of crime novels. The West Hollywood apartment building where Mr. Buck lived, with its simple white facade, dirty with stains dripping from air-conditioners, would be easy to miss on another day, the kind of spot that the novelist Raymond Chandler once described as a good place to have bad habits.

So the threshold is 3 dead ******* apparently.
That’s good to know.

Just another example of FBI perfidy. Anyone associated with Trump gets the book thrown at him for jaywalking. Anyone associated with the DOJ can be a serial killer and it’s OK.
Frigging autokkkorect. DNC becomes DOJ.
“Small time”
He gave former California state Senate leader Kevin De Leon $18,700 over several campaigns. A former staffer says most of that money was donated in January of 2018 to a nonprofit that helps domestic violence survivors.
Democratic Congressman Ted Lieu took in $19,400 in state and federal donations from Buck. Lieu’s campaign says after the second death at Buck’s home, they donated the contributions they received to various charities.
Buck gave Adam Schiff, now chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, $2,700 in 2016. The campaign says the money went to the nonprofit Trevor Project.
West Hollywood Mayor John Duran received $12,500 from Buck in various campaigns in 2012 to 2016. Without offering specifics, he said most of the money was spent and some was donated to charity.

Buck is the perfect poster boy for the modern Democrat Party.
Then again autokkkorekt may know more than I do.
Ed is on a one man mission to fix the CA homeless problem.
“small-time”
Buck, 65, has donated more than $500,000 to a range of Democratic groups and politicians, including tens of thousands of dollars to California candidates such as Gov. Gavin Newsom. Buck is also well known in LGBTQ political circles.
Is there a difference?
Every once in a while Otto Kor Wrecked gets one righter than the writer intended...
Three people end up dead at his house = “trickle”
Trickle. What one might call a minor plumbing leak.
The demonrats are a bunch of sick criminal sobs.....but nothing to see here...move along...
That’s good to know.
If you are a democrat donor.
OTOH, he was a Republican...
I expect that Buck, if he did any “socializing” at all with the Clintons, will be found dead in his cell, within a few days.
I think I read someplace that he was a CA elector.
Oh sure...a “double life” just like Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein. Bill and Hillary Clinton had more supporters who led “double lives” than any other couple in history.
When they die, maybe the Democrat media can tell us about the Clinton’s “double life.” No, they’ll never admit they were part of the corrupt gaggle of evildoers populating the Who’s Who of the Democrat party.
If it were “three people end up dead over the weekend in Chicago” it would be a trickle.
