Brent's Third Victory Speech

[From 80:00 minutes into The Sword's 2009 GAYVN Award video, Brent's acceptance for Best Bottom]:


Brent: Allright, um, obviously, I wouldn't have been able to do this if they hadn't given me some really...uh, good tops to work with, so, um, aside from that you know, obviously...I love doing it! So, why not, right? Thank you so much! [applause]

Update: The tidal wave of public opinion in favor of Brent Corrigan continues, as Gay Sex Blog opines:

"...Child pornography laws are intended to keep people aged 17 and under from being exploited in porn films; in other words, they were designed to protect Brent in that situation. People may disagree with what he did (I do), but at the same time the onus was on Cobra Video owner Bryan Kocis to ensure Brent had valid ID.

Considering that Bryan Kocis had pleaded guilty to sexually abusing a 15-year-old boy he met over the Internet in 2001, with the defense that the boy claimed to be of legal age, I think it is bit much for anyone to try to paint the 17-year-old Brent as a predator intent on damaging the gay porn community via his involvement with Cobra Video.

People should give Brent a second chance now that he is an adult. In this case it's true that he did something dumb, even criminal perhaps, but he was also taken advantage of by a person with a history of sexual involvement with underage boys."

It is rather nice to see someone else saying what it has seemed like only a handful of us have been repeating 'ad nauseum' for years. Words like 'underage,' '17' and 'exploited.'
Not words like 'onus' though. That is a bit too hoity-toity I think. :)
Maybe the new voice will reach new ears.

I think a big reason why others are just now saying it is because the fact that a whistleblower is the HERO in a situation has always been so self-evident.

We deal with anonymous commenteers all the time who try to deny that self-evident fact. So, we end up being the only ones reasserting the obvious.

So, when a big fish like ML tries to deny the self-evident, and paint the whistleblower as the villain...bigger fish like GSB step up to the plate to reassert the obvious.

I agree with Albert. I have said that the responsibility for getting and verifying the ID of the models is on the producers. they should not film a model until they have verified that models age.

We know that bryan Kocis did not do that and if anyone was responsible for the damage that was caused by brent preforming in under age porn it was Cobra Video.

Bryan Kocis knew this and that is why he filed that stupid civil suit. It was away to draw attention away from the fact that he did not do his job.


Bryan Kocis was a money grubbing idiot and he wanted to exploit Brent Corrigan and he did all of the nasty things that came about because of his stupidity and greed.

The reason he is dead is because of greed. Greed is a evil thing and it is one of the seven deadly sins and so far it has proven to be deadly.
