Peter B. Collins Presents Henry Vinson & Nick Bryant
Running a funeral home by day, and a gay escort service at night, Henry Vinson was a witness to Washington’s dark side during the Reagan and Bush I administrations. He describes how power broker Craig Spence hired Vinson’s “rent boys” to populate wild sex parties that were videotaped to blackmail some elected officials. He names Donald Gregg, CIA veteran, ambassador to South Korea and close advisor of the first Bush, who used his government credit card to pay for gay sex, billed as funeral accessories; and how one of the highest ranking cabinet members paid Vinson a visit to keep him quiet, and shortly after he was indicted and spent about 10 years in prison.
*Henry W. Vinson, with journalist Nick Bryant, just published Confessions of a DC Madam: The Politics of Sex, Lies and Blackmail. Bryant was a recent guest on this podcast, reporting on the Jeffrey Epstein pedophile scandal, and is the author of The Franklin Scandal, for which Vinson was a source.
