- A high-rolling Hub lawyer whose jurist wife is presiding
over the case against accused shoe bomber Richard Reid was among seven
men busted for fondling each other in a seedy Rhode Island porno theater
this week, police and sources said.
-
- Attorney Alan M. Reisch, a partner at the prestigious
Goulston and Storrs law firm, was one of seven men busted in Amazing
Express
Video in Johnston, R.I., Wednesday night. Reisch, the husband of U.S.
District
Court Magistrate Judge Judith Dein, and the other six men all had their
pants down and were engaged in various sex acts when cops burst into the
darkened theater.
-
- "What they were doing was a public health
hazard,"
Johnston, R.I., police Chief Richard Tamburini said. "It's
bizarre."
The shop, which is listed on one Web site as a popular "cruising"
spot for gay men, was known to police as a haven for illicit sex, Tamburini
said.
-
- "We knew it was a breeding ground for this type
of activity but we never thought it went on on that level," Tamburini
said. "You expect maybe one-on-one but not seven guys."
-
- 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.
-
- According to one longtime friend, Reisch, 48, has been
married to Dein for 20 years.
-
- Dein, who couldn't be reached for comment, is one of
two judges sitting on the case against Reid, the man accused of trying
to blow up a plane with a shoe bomb last month.
