Lindsey Graham Accused of Having Sex With 17-Year-Old Male Escort
A documentary with allegations about the late Senator was released on Thursday.
Three male escorts allege in a new documentary that late Republican Senator Lindsey Graham paid them for sexual encounters, with one claiming the senator was involved with a 17-year-old at the time. The CLOSETocracy documentary, produced by Swamp Watch Studios and Tystnaden Films and released by the Young Turks network, contains testimony from men who say Graham paid them in Arizona and Washington, D.C. for sexual encounters.
One man identified as Kelvin alleges he met Graham at an Arizona property when he was 17 and claims Graham paid him $120. Kelvin said Graham repeatedly asked his age after viewing his face, and Kelvin insisted he was 18, though he felt powerless to argue with the senator. Kelvin described the encounter as involving sexual activity and alleged Graham struggled to maintain an erection before masturbating.
He questioned how the encounter would have progressed if he had appeared older. The documentary also features two other men who describe alleged sexual encounters with Graham, one of whom says Graham expressed a preference for being degraded. The documentary's accounts could not be independently verified, and Arizona's age of consent is 18, making any sexual conduct with a minor a criminal offense.
