“Are Black Men Really Into Trannies?”

The ReadyWriter

A popular HOT 97 deejay and record producer, Mister Cee, was caught and arrested for public lewdness after cops caught him in a car receiving oral sex from another man, authorities said.

Mister Cee, whose real name is Calvin Lebrun, 44, and a male companion, Lawrence Campbell, 20, were arrested at 3:55 a.m last Wednesday, according to court papers. Their behavior was open to public view and both men were charged with public lewdness and exposure of a person.

The police officer observed Mr. Cee “getting head” from the male hooker in his parked car. Cee is a well-respected music producer, known for his work on Notorious BIG’s classic Ready To Die album.

Both men were released after their arraignment and are due back in court in June.

I sure hope Mr. Cee isn’t married, because if he is, he is just one more black man added to the list of pitiful brothas who use black women to justify (and hide) their sick lifestyles.

“The Eddie Long Scandal Wins 2010”

The ReadyWriter

Scandal of the year!

Four young men accused Bishop Eddie Long of using his money and power to coerce them into having sex with him. Thirty (30) young men in all, have come forward against Bishop Long since.

Although Long has vowed to fight the charges, the case is in mediation right now. Why? Because Bishop Eddie Long is a powerful man with a many of his church members in his closet and if he goes down they go down too.

If Long were innocent, he’d want the trial to be public so that the world can see that his accusers are making false allegations. A person who asks to settle things behind closed doors may be hoping that he can salvage a small piece of his reputation and rely on the blind faith to remain convinced that he can do no wrong.

Either way, Bishop Eddie Long is guilty, is going to bust hell wide open and his disgraceful scandal, wins scandal of the year (2010) on the CEO’s blog.

“The Eddie Long ‘Sex Case’ In Mediation”

The ReadyWriter

 

After all of that talk about…

“I’m gone fight this thing” and

“I’m NOT the person being portrayed in the media” and

“I feel like David against Goliath, I’ve got five rocks and I haven’t thrown one yet”.  

Now Bishop Eddie Long and his accusers have agreed to a mediation instead of a public trial.

Mediator Ellen Malow states “Almost all mediation when the case settles neither side gives any admission of guilt or responsibility, this is standard in any settlement agreement.”

Some legal experts say this looks like an admission of guilt while others say this is not the case. I think so, anything can be decided on when a case is in mediation (i.e., no future book deals, a gag order, sealed records and files, a substantial amount of money) and the list can go on.

Long is being sued by four young men who say’s he used his power and influence to coerce them into a sexual relationship.

He denied the claims in a court filing even though he admitted to taking them on trips, giving them gifts and sometimes sharing hotel rooms.

If a settlement agreement is reached in a private mediation, we may never know the outcome of this case.

“Bishop Long Not Settling/Trial Goes To Court”

“We were in court last week, discovery is happening right now. We’re setting up deposition dates, so the litigation is proceeding along,” said BJ Bernstein.

Bernstein is the lawyer representing four young men, who filed lawsuits against Bishop Eddie Long, and told Channel 2 Action News the lawsuits are moving forward, and she will soon begin taking depositions.

“We’re talking about getting forward and going through with the case and planning for deadlines set by the judge” Bernstein added.

Bernstein would not comment on any other pending lawsuits, or additional victims.

Anthony Flagg, Jamal Parris, Maurice Robinson and Spencer LeGrande filed civil suits against Long, accusing him of using his spiritual authority to coerce the young men into sexual relationships.

Long has since denied the claims in court documents, but admitted serving as a mentor to the men.

“He Hasn’t Stepped Down Although It Looks”

That way…

Although Bishop Eddie Long said he will not step down or step aside while he fights allegations of sexual misconduct brought on by several young men from his church however, it looks like that’s exactly what he’s done.

For the last couple of Sunday’s now, there have been guest preachers at New Birth Missionary Baptist church, Bishop has been present but explained to his congregation how he needs to spend more time with his family and that “God wanted him to rest and be refreshed. He added that, from time to time the congregations would see him sitting on the side so he could hear “what God is saying and so I don’t miss anything.”

The Bishop’s absence was also a tell- tell sign at “Stand” this year. Stand is an annual church meeting which is held yearly at the Georgia Dome and it draws a crowd 30,000 to 40,000 of the faithful each year.

Although Long has supported Stand from its inception, this year he was a no-show.

Deep down inside, I think he’s embarrassed.
