Sexual blackmail
Henry Vinson, who ran the largest gay escort service in Washington DC, wrote:
“I feel that Larry Craig is an example of a congressman who was possibly compromised. Craig was in Washington D.C. for nearly 30 years...Given Craig's status as a conservative Republican, if word of his shadow life leaked out it would result in political suicide and public disgrace, but his runaway libido compelled him to take mindboggling risks.
I find it nearly impossible to believe Craig's homosexual exploits were unnoticed by the shadowy cadre who were enmeshed with Spence and [likely CIA operative] Tony, because of my belief that they were aware of the patrons who used my escort service. I'm also of the belief that the foremost explanation that can be offered concerning Craig's brazen exploits with regards to homosexuality is that he was compromised, and he was mindful that his brazen exploits would be covered up.”
