Jarec Wentworth Extortion Trial Begins, Jury Selection Complete, Fellow Porn Models To Testify

The trial of disgraced porn star Jarec Wentworth, who was nabbed by the feds in March and subsequently pleaded not guilty to charges of extortion, began Tuesday, July 7, following jury selection that happened this morning in a Los Angeles federal court.

The former Men.com model stands accused of extorting $500,000 and an Audi R8 worth $180,000 from wealthy gay Republican businessman Donald Burns, who has over the years enjoyed the company of various Sean Cody porn stars. (Jarec of course made his name as Sean Cody’s Jarek, and remained friends with many models there.)

XBiz reports that the victim in the case, Burns – who made his millions selling those Magic Jack devices that old people bought off the TV to make free phone calls via their computers – is scheduled to testify this week in what’s expected to be a three-day trial.

Str8UpGayPorn has been in the courtroom live-tweeting today’s jury selection, and will presumably be there all week, getting smiles from Jarec, and detailing the whole thing.

The jury has 3 men and 9 women, and apparently they all looked scandalized by the details of the case, involving male hookers, gay porn, etc. Also, this is funny.

As the story goes, Burns hired Jarec over the years to procure some out-of-reach porn star dick, namely some gay and some gay-for-pay (like him) Sean Cody models who weren’t otherwise on the open hooker market via Rentboy. Earlier this year, Jarec got greedy and according to an indictment, started threatening to expose Burns via his Twitter account, or via a porn blog, (allegedly) ultimately demanding $1 million and a condo. Burns finally pulled the plug, called in the FBI, and they arrested Jarec in March in a sting operation.

Several fellow porn stars who either knew Jarec off-camera or were pimped out by him to service Mr. Burns — including his friend Colt Rivers and Sean Cody model turned CockyBoys model Justin Matthews (a.k.a. Sean Cody’s Taylor) — are also expected to testify.

  1. The jury consists of 3 men and 9 women, not the other way around. (My guess is, the defense wanted 12 women.) The trial started today. There was testimony from an Agent and Burns. Burn’s testimony continues Wednesday morning.
