Gay Hooker Taping Sex Scandal In Pa.!

While they’re sending reporters around to follow Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton as they criss-cross the state, let’s hope the media can spend some time to get to Pennsylvania’s Cumberland County. There’s a bit of a scandal here! Former County Commissioner Bruce Barclay has been accused of raping another man and cops say when they searched his house they found “100 to 500″ secretly videotaped sexual encounters between Barclay and other men, many of them male prostitutes.

And these guys were almost as expensive as Eliot Spitzer’s call girl!

The affidavit describes several such encounters with an Internet escort service known as “harrisburgfratboys.com.” Court documents indicate Barclay twice flew a 19-year-old man referred to as “W.M.” to his West Palm Beach home. During a trip last month, “W.M” told investigators that Barclay flew a male prostitute from Binghamton, N.Y., and paid that man $1,500.

The video cameras, incidentally, were hidden in the bathroom, bedroom and “indoor recreation areas,” cops say. Barclay resigned earlier this month after the rape allegation.

Barclay’s lawyer say the taps disprove the rape allegation. It’s unclear if he’ll be charged with videotaping or soliciting a prostitute, though the cops say the search warrant “contains probable cause [I hope so!--dmac] to further an investigation into invasion of privacy and prostitution.”

The ex-commish still has his backers. His next door neighbor — who was there for Super Bowl parties! — says, “I still think the community will respect him at the end of the day.” I don’t see any problem with a john hiring 500 prostitutes and secretly taping himself having sex with them — not in a row — but I think some people might be a little peeved.
