Here's a West Hollywood (WEHO) Times article with comments about Buck by local politicians as well as a sex worker called "Damar Love" who provides pictures he says he took during an encounter with Buck: http://www.wehotimes.com/allegations-death-sex-worker-plaque-influential-west-hollywood-political-insider/ Edit: Openly gay former West Hollywood Mayor Steve Martin is interviewed and seems to know Buck well. From the article: "If there was ever anybody in West Hollywood whose bed you expected a dead body to turn up in, it was Ed Buck.”
I can't help but wonder whether ex-Mayor Steve Martin is the same "Steve" identified by "Blake" in the link provided above by quantokitty http://www.jasmyneacannick.com/after-gemmel-moores-death-new-victim-comes-forward-and-recounts-ed-bucks-gates-of-hell/ From this link: "Blake talked about Buck’s friend Steve who lives in the same apartment building. 'That’s his [Buck’s] buddy. Every time there’s an issue or a problem with the cops he always running to Steve.' ”
I do not find evidence that the ex-mayor ever lived in the same building as Buck, but the fact that the Steve referred to by Blake apparently had influence with the local cops does make you wonder.
Edit: Here’s a data point that ties the Steve named by Blake as Buck’s neighbor a bit more closely to the ex-mayor: The ex-mayor was working to preserve a 1915 era home located just one block away and across the street from Buck’s residence on N. Laurel Avenue in West Hollywood and have it designated as a cultural landmark. He would likely have been there frequently.
From Martin’s website bio: “After leaving the City Council Steve was drafted into the efforts to “Save Tara”, a cultural landmark on Laurel Avenue.” http://www.stevemartinweho.org/bio.html The address of the Tara building is 1343 N. Laurel Ave. Buck lived at 1234 N. Laurel Ave. This WEHOville article gives Buck’s address and unusual life history--also, by the way, mentions Voat and Pizzagate: http://www.wehoville.com/2017/08/16/who-is-ed-buck/

A big fat Upvoat for you!
Amazing work. When I re-read the link, yes, it does fit that Buck would run to Steve to run interference with the cops. And maybe he didn't live there. Maybe he kept a crashpad there so they could party. Martin does try to be distancing himself from this. Talking about Buck's erratic personality disorder. If he's the "Steve" mentioned, he has a pretty huge personality disorder himself!
And what's with the meth epidemic in WeHo? Thought everything was fine in PedoWood.

Thanks, Q. You've been doing great work on this, as you always do. I too thought Martin went overboard on the distancing of himself from Buck. If he actually was found to be Buck's "fixer," I imagine he'd be looking at some kind of obstruction of justice charge at least--if the local authorities weren't compromised--so that's a big if. I wondered the same thing about a crash pad. The meth epidemic is a mystery.
