LOS ANGELES (AP) — Wealthy California political donor Ed Buck was indicted Wednesday by a federal grand jury for two overdose deaths in his West Hollywood apartment and charges he provided methamphetamine to three other men, one of whom survived two overdoses.The indictment returned in U.S. District Court charged Buck with distributing meth resulting in the deaths of Timothy Dean in January and Gemmel Moore in 2017. Buck had previously been charged in Moore’s death after his arrest last month.Buck, 65, who is white and has given hundreds of thousands of dollars to Democratic causes, preyed on vulnerable men, most of them black, some of them homeless and addicted to drugs, and pressured them to let him inject them with drugs as part of a sexual ritual, prosecutors said.A defense lawyer has previously said Buck, 65, denies a role in both deaths.In addition to including a charge for Dean’s death, the indictment adds charges that Buck provided meth to three other men, including one who said Buck threatened him with a power saw in December if he didn’t leave his apartment and another who overdosed twice in a week last month before escaping the home to get help.That last victim’s harrowing account led to Buck’s arrest _ more than two years after activists began staging rallies outside his rent-controlled apartment and pressuring the local district attorney to bring charges in the July 27, 2017 death of Moore, 26.Moore’s mother and her supporters have said Buck got favorable treatment because of his status and reputation and that the victims were ignored because they were gay black men, drug users and often sex workers. The activists had repeatedly warned that if Buck wasn’t stopped, others would die.Five months after Los Angeles County District Attorney Jackie Lacey declined to bring charges in Moore’s death, Dean, 55, was found dead Jan. 7 on the floor of Buck’s living room _ the same place Moore died.The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department reopened the case after Dean’s death. In July, the U.S. attorney’s office took the case after sheriff’s detectives approached a federal task force investigating opioid overdoses.Lacey, who is black, has said politics played no role in her decision not to prosecute Buck in the deaths of the two men. She defended her decision and said there was insufficient evidence to proceed with murder charges.The federal charges bring a mandatory minimum sentence of 20 years if Buck is convicted. That penalty would be greater than the state drug charges he was arrested on, Lacey said.Buck ran unsuccessfully in 2007 for City Council in West Hollywood, which is known for its large LGBTQ community. He has donated at least 0,000 to Democratic campaigns and causes over many years.Buck, who was an AIDS activist, gained fame by leading a 1987 campaign to recall Republican Arizona Gov. Evan Mecham, who was ultimately convicted in an impeachment trial and kicked out of office.Buck had been a Republican, but said he switched party affiliation to Democrat because he felt the GOP was intolerant toward the gay community.He has told reporters that he worked as a male model in Europe in his youth and returned to Phoenix, where he worked for a friend’s company, eventually buying it out of bankruptcy for 0,000 and turning it around for over million profit.He said he “retired” to West Hollywood in 1991 at the age of 37 and became active in animal rescue efforts.Less than a week after his Sept. 17 arrest, Buck’s landlord put an eviction notice on the door of his rent-controlled apartment. It cited his arrest on drug charges and the two overdose deaths. 3637

LOS ANGELES (CNS) - Funeral services were pending Tuesday for veteran stage, screen and TV actress Conchata Ferrell, perhaps best remembered for her role as Charlie Sheen's sharp-witted housekeeper Berta on the long-running sitcom "Two and a Half Men.""She was a beautiful human," her "Two and a Half Men" co-star Jon Cryer wrote on his Twitter page. "Berta's gruff exterior was an invention of the writers. Chatty's warmth and vulnerability were her real strengths. I'm crying for the woman I'll miss, and the joy she brought so many."... I'm glad that I absolutely knew how fortunate I was to share a stage with her," he wrote. "I treasured every moment and will continue to until we meet again. I have a feeling she'll call me 'Zippy."'Sheen tweeted, "An absolute sweetheart, a consummate pro, a genuine friend, a shocking and painful loss. Berta, your housekeeping was a tad suspect, your `people' keeping was perfect."Ferrell, 77, died Monday, surrounded by family at Sherman Oaks Hospital, the celebrity news website Deadline reported.Ferrell had been hospitalized since May. TMZ reported in July that she had fallen ill and wound up spending a month in intensive care, eventually suffering cardiac arrest that left her on a ventilator and unable to communicate. She was ultimately transferred to a long-term care facility, with her husband, Arnie Anderson, telling the website the family was hoping for the best.A native of West Virginia, Ferrell had an award-winning stage career before moving on to films and television. She earned a pair of Emmy nominations for her work on "Two and a Half Men." She was also nominated for her work on "L.A. Law."She appeared in a series of notable films, including the classics "Network" and "Mystic Pizza," along with "Erin Brockovich" and "Edward Scissorhands."On the small screen, she appeared in a string of shows dating back to the mid-1970s, including "Maude," "B.J. and the Bear," "Hearts Afire," "Teen Angel," "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," "Touched by an Angel" and most recently "The Ranch."She is survived by her husband and daughter, Samantha. 2104

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- For gig workers who don’t have a typical 9 to 5 job, finding work is a hustle under normal circumstances.With the pandemic shutting down thousands of these specialty jobs across the country for months, many of these workers say it’s been a struggle to even put food on the table.Hollywood makeup artist Robert Maverick is used to creating nightmarish characters. He’s worked on all kinds of sets from live stage productions to blockbuster movies and television shows.Yet, surviving the shutdown, specifically the closure of the entertainment industry, has become a horror all too real.“It’s been the most depressing and stressful time of my life,” said Maverick.Maverick, like many other professionals behind the scenes and independent contractors around the country, works job to job whenever work is available.“We’re mostly middle class, and we don’t walk the red carpet, but we make the people who do look good,” Maverick said.“Many people think we live in a very glamorous world and that we’re very rich and entitled, but the truth is, many of us work on hourly wages and go from project to project,” said Felicia Linsky, a makeup artist who has worked in Hollywood for years. “You’re only as good as the project you get to show up and do,” she said.Career makeup artist Iris Abril, who has worked on shows like "Brooklyn Nine-Nine," said she and her husband are both gig workers. “With the pandemic, it put both of us out of work at the same time,” she said. “It’s really scary and we’re in denial,” said Abril of the fact that all productions across the entertainment industry ground to a halt for months.Now, production may resume, but the question is: how? Many fear they’ll be unemployed for months to come.Linsky started several new online business ventures while out of work in her field. She said it was not only a way to create income but a way to pass the time.“I created a virtual hair coloring and hair cutting service that ended up going across the country,” said Linsky. “I’ve always believed in online businesses, and that’s been my way of segwaying and staying positive and productive,” she said of making sure she did everything she could to bring in income during the shutdown.“We’ve all tried to stay active, but it’s been tremendously upsetting," said Stephen Lighthill, President of the Board of Governors for the American Society of Cinematographers. "It’s the danger of going outside, the danger of the pandemic, and of course what’s happened to our economy. And going forward we’re all very fearful that when we go back to work the world will be a very different place.”Lighthill said across the industry, gig workers on large and small productions will be impacted for years to come, if not permanently. “It’s going to have to change the way we work in the production of films, it's going to change the way people see films, it’s going to change the size of our audiences and where those audiences are going now. As much as we talk about going back to work, but there’s a tremendous amount of fear that we won’t have the right tools in place.”For Maverick, when the work he loved dried up, he filed for unemployment, but because of a banking clerical error, “I received one COVID payment with the regular benefits plus the extra payment of 0,” he said. “That was 10 weeks ago.”He is now still waiting for all the benefits he is owed to arrive."COVID-19 is not as big of a fear to me as sliding into poverty this far in my career where I’m just years away from retirement,” he said.Maverick said the stress and anxiety piled up with his bills. “It’s sad you have to be at this point, 30 years into your career, worried about just having food in the pantry,” he said. “I was eating every third day. I would take vegetables, because they’re cheap, and juice them and put them in the refrigerator and drink them over the course of three days.”In the midst of his physical struggle, Maverick was hit with heartbreak. His brother, an Army veteran, passed away.“I’m a fixer, I’ve always been a fixer. That’s why I do my job as a makeup artist,” he said. “But I can’t fix this. I can’t fix dead.”And he can’t turn Hollywood on overnight for the thousands of people waiting in the wings as filmmakers and lawmakers rescript the choreography on set so the show can safely go on.“Hollywood is not that far away from your front door. You just turn on your TV. We’re always there to entertain you, and we hope that you’re there for us as we struggle through this,” said Maverick. 4529

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Officials say a Northern California county has begun a door-to-door coronavirus testing pilot program in a majority Latino community that has become a virus hot spot. Santa Clara County volunteers started handing out self-testing kits in the East San Jose neighborhood of Silicon Valley’s San Jose last week, where 55% of the population is Latino and officials say many residents do not have the ability or means to get tested. Communities of color nationwide have been disproportionately affected by the virus. Santa Clara County’s efforts come as more than 325,000 doses of a COVID-19 vaccine are on their way to California on Sunday amid record-setting case numbers and shrinking intensive care unit capacity. 739

Local veterans are getting help buying homes through a program that aims to give them an upper hand in the competitive southern California housing market.  So Cal VA Homes was founded six years ago by Peter Van Brady. He says he realized just how many issues his military clients were having buying a home with their benefits.  So he makes a cash offer on behalf of the vets and incorporates them in the renovation process. " And then we transfer the home to the veteran using their VA benefit for zero down and zero closing," said Brady. So far he's been able to help put nearly 40 veterans and their families into houses. For more information on how to apply go to : http://www.socalvahomes.org/ 740
