Our story the other day about Nickolay Petrov’s bizarre arrest is getting picked up around the web, starting with the XBIZ story and spreading initially to half a dozen gay porn blogs from around the interwebs. He is charged with “traveling in interstate commerce with intent to kill, injure, harass or intimidate another person” after accepting $2000 to shake down a Florida couple into repaying a debt. Between New York and Florida, he is alleged to have stalked and attacked the couple on four separate occasions. The victims identified him from a photo lineup. The story only gets stranger from there. Mr. Petrov was a Jet Set exclusive and when I called head of production Chris Steele for a comment, they were unaware of the arrest. Mr. Steele later told Adult Video News, “It’s sad, really. Here’s another guy with everything going for him. If he hadn’t been in trouble, he could have made that much [money] in ON FIRE! We really wanted him in that movie.” [Image √Ǭ© Jet Set Productions.]

    Interwebs? Wow J.C. Is that a Babylon 5 ref?
    I did credit you at the end of the story I added one to the top as well since someone else is claiming they broke the story first!

    DeWayne — Thanks for the link, much appreciated. Although I’m not claiming to have broken the story first, just that many sites are linking to our write-up.

    “Interwebs” is both a hacker in-joke and a “B5″ reference, yes, so congrats for picking up on that. I’m a scifi geek.

    Regards,

    a number of mainstream news sites broke the story about “Edmon Vardanyan” and a gay blog did print the claim that Edomon was Nickolay based apparently solely on a photo.

    While the guess that Edom was Nickolay happened to proved correct, I would not have printed that Edmon was Nickolay based solely on looking at a photo. Gay Porn Times was the first site to make any attempt to contact studios and management to confirm that Edmon was Nickolay.

    Frankly, I don’t think the mainstream press has yet figured out that Edmon is a well known pornstar.

    “… and a gay blog did print the claim that Edomon was Nickolay based apparently solely on a photo.”

    Is that true?
