Good question. After reading this story I'd have to say he sounds more like a low-roller.
Among those arrested with Reisch was 57-year-old Edward Sherman of North Attleboro and Christopher Scott, a 30-year-old Cumberland, R.I., high school teacher. All were charged with disorderly conduct but Reisch and three others were additionally charged with loitering for prostitution for allegedly soliciting others to join the all-male orgy.

Seven guys and going out on the street to buy more, or entice more. No promicuity here. These were all serious relationships.
Judge wazzername and her hubby must have one hell of a marriage.
The DNC didn't make this idiot go to a seedy porn joint, drop trou, and participate in..........well, whatever he was participating in with other men.
Unbelievably humiliating for the judge, no?
I'm sure she was properly vetted before being sent up. I'm going out on a limb here but I'll bet her congresscritter is Bwahney Frank.
JOHNSTON -- Seven men have been summonsed to appear in District Court on charges stemming from allegedly illegal sexual activities at Amazing Express, an adult video store and theater at 1530 Hartford Ave.
The seven were taken into custody Wednesday night, following an investigation by four undercover police officers, Chief Richard Tamburini said yesterday. He said the police acted after receiving information this week of sexual activity there.
The four officers went to the store, which was open for business, about 7:45 p.m. on Wednesday and went into the movie theater where an adult video was showing. Patrons pay $5 to watch adult videos in the theater. There the police said they observed the seven men exposing themselves, and fondling each other and themselves. Tamburini said that activity, done in a public place, constitutes disorderly conduct.
In addition, he said, four of the men were trying to entice others in the theater to join them. They were charged with loitering for indecent purposes.
When the police took the men into custody the store closed for the night, the chief said. The men were released Wednesday night, after being summonsed.
Besides selling adult videos, the store, which at one time was called the Johnston Cinema and showed X-rated feature films, and later was called Airborne for Men, has a small theater with about 50 seats, plus cases of videos and other sex oriented objects that are for sale. It also has small booths, where patrons can rent and watch the videos in private.
Joseph T. McGrath, 68, of 43 Gaspee Point Drive, Warwick; Paul R. Lichtenberger, 49, of 35 Peck Hill Rd., Scituate; Alan M. Reisch, 48, of Arlington, Mass., and Stuart Denton, 55, of Moosup, Conn., were summonsed on charges of disorderly conduct and loitering for indecent purposes. Both charges are misdemeanors.
Greg Renshaw, 41, of Woodstock, Conn.; Edward V. Sherman, 57, of 31 S. Main St., North Attleboro, Mass.; and Christopher Scott, 30, of 1 Bill St., Cumberland, were summonsed for disorderly conduct.
They are all scheduled to appear in District Court, in Providence, on Jan. 23 on the charges.
Tamburini said he was struck by the varied backgrounds of the people involved. He said background checks run by the department when the men were taken into custody showed that Scott is a Cumberland High School mathematics teacher and Reisch is a lawyer. He said McGrath is retired, Lichtenberger is unemployed, Renshaw is an engineer and Denton is a janitor. Tamburini said Sherman is a registered sex offender in Massachusetts.
Word of the police action in the establishment swept through town yesterday. The store has long been one of the places that most town officials wish would just go away. With its long history, the place has been viewed by present and past town officials as one of the lynchpins of the local adult entertainment industry. Yesterday, television crews from Providence and Boston converged on the store, which is in a nondescript cinder block building with peeling blue paint. As news crews watched, a steady stream of patrons went into the store.
Town leaders were swift to react to news of the raid.
The establishment has a business operating license and a Sunday sales license, both issued by the town. Town Council President Robert Russo said that once the council gets the report from the police, he expects the board will schedule a meeting to determine whether to hold a hearing to decide on the status of the licenses.
Mayor William R. Macera praised the police for their work.
"It's very clear the council and the people do not want this activity in the town," he said. "I support them 100 percent. Let those people do that in their own bedrooms."
Macera also noted that the video-rental store is across the street from War Memorial Park, the town's primary youth recreation area.
Tamburini said this is the first time the police have issued any summonses for activity at the store. He said the investigation is continuing and it has not been determined if more charges will be brought.
John Lizotta, the manager, yesterday said he had no comment. "I'm sure there will be somebody to represent the store," he said.
According to information on file in the Town Hall, the applicant for the sales and business licenses was Dennis Nichols, of 1060 Park Ave., Cranston. He could not be reached for comment.
