Crack for Sex
» Sex Crime
A sad story of an eighty year old man who used crack cocaine as a means to obtain sex.
“I was trying to stay alive, your honor, pay my bills,” Cocco said after Allegheny County Common Pleas Judge Jeffrey A. Manning asked why he had chosen a new profession so late in life.
Defense attorney Martha Bailor said Cocco wanted to remain sexually active after his wife died three years ago, and turned to prostitutes.
“He decided it’s cheaper to pay for sex with crack than cash,” Bailor told the judge.
