HARLOW CUADRA ARRESTED
GayPornLand learned this week, via the Associated Press, that Harlow Raymond Cuadra, 25, and Joseph Manuel Kerekes, 33, were arrested in Virginia Beach on warrants charging them with the murder of Cobra Video’s Bryan Charles Kocis. They are to be charged with homicide, accomplice to murder, burglary, robbery, arson, tampering with evidence, abuse of corpse and criminal conspiracy.

DALLAS TOWNSHIP, PA. — The Associated Press is reporting that Harlow Raymond Cuadra, 25, and Joseph Manuel Kerekes, 33, have been arrested in Virginia Beach, VA, “on warrants charging them with the death of Cobra Video owner Bryan Charles Kocis, state police said. Authorities did not specify a motive.”

Firefighters discovered Kocis’ body upon responding to a blaze at his Dallas Township, Pennsylvania home on January 24th. He had been stabbed nearly 30 times and his throat slashed. Cuadra, an escort and amateur porn performer, had been named a “person of interest” in the investigation when detectives recovered an email from Kocis’ computer noting that Cuadra had been scheduled to meet Kocis the night of his murder. Cuadra claimed someone else used his photo to set up the meeting and that he had been with an escort client.

Per GAYVN, in a statment to investors, PlanetOut notes that Speciality “did not fit the ad-revenue-driven model of the other PlanetOut businesses,” but considers it “an excellent acquisition opportunity.” Discussions with potential buyers are set to take place during their fiscal year’s March-June second quarter.
