Jesters deny, all other sources, including me, have their say about this Masonic group's nonprofit ties to prostitution.

Dan Herbeck of the Buffalo News counters Jester denial with facts.

    “I quit the Jesters more than 20 years ago, and this kind of thing has been going on at least 40 or 50 years,” said Malcolm “Mutt” Herring, 90, of Montgomery, Ala. “I quit because I don’t drink, and I don’t mess around with other women, other than my wife. Going to one of their events was like going to a whorehouse.”

    They want us to believe that the Buffalo Group represents an isolated event or at least one abberant "book". Former members tell a far different story!

    Like I wrote, the Jester leaders are either truth challenged or unaware of the facts.

    We'll see what happens at tomorrow's status hearing. Trowbridge's sentencing is light but could point to either indictments or guilty pleas out of Kentucky. Things are much more interesting now that that guy who took the Jesters fishing on the Amazon was just indicted by Brazilian authorities who'd been investigating the sexual exploitation of minors by foreigners.

    Thanks for your comments,

    Sandy
