John List Gone, Larry Ray Trial Blues by Matthew Russell Lee, 3/26/22  There was a John named Randy Levinson It was coercion but he called it win-win They named him in the trial of Larry Ray But kept 120 other Johns out of the way  There was the power couple running culture for the Gap That Claudia Drury was suffocated they didn't give a crap There was art historian working an auction house Word on the street he likes 'em quiet as a mouse  There was the school architect working up at Yale If they arrested him he quickly get on bail There was the hedge funder, museum with his name He laid down his donation and then on it he came  Next up might be the nasty global diamond dealer While he measures the carats of girls' souls he is a stealer Also on deck is a veteran travel writer And where's Talia Ray and when will they indict her?  Support: https://www.patreon.com/posts/64280088

John List Gone But Back As Piltch & Levinson IDed Now Inner City Press On Larry Ray Trial By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell Book BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN  SDNY COURT/UN GATE, March 25 –  In the course of covering and live-tweeting the US v. Larry Ray sex cult trial for two weeks, Inner City Press has obtained and published a number of the exhibits.   The same occurred on the night of March 21: a list of Ray's victim Claudia Drury's prostitution clients.    Inner City Press uploaded it to its DocumentCloud, and spoke about the list in a brief vlog on the morning of March 22 on the way into the Southern District of New York courthouse to cover the day's trial starting at 9 am.    Just before 10 am the prosecutors emailed reporters and asked that the exhibit be taken down. In an abundance of caution, Inner City Press deleted the document from its DocumentCloud - and wrote to several accounts at the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press asking for a statement of applicable First Amendment law.    By the afternoon, having covered the trial until Larry Ray citing a seizure was taken out on a stretched (Inner City Press tweeted video here), a second request came in, to delete the March 21 evening tweet of the list, which still had an image from DocumentCloud.
