After initial denials, Upstate New York Prosecutor admits he performed in the porn business back in the early 1970s
From NBC4 New York
A district attorney in upstate New York has admitted that he acted in pornographic movies in the 1970s then lied when questioned about it during his second campaign.
Mark Suben, the DA in Cortland County near Syracuse since 2008, held a news conference Friday to say he had lied about his past in the days before this years election.
Recently materials have been circulated alleging that I was involved in the adult film industry about 40 years ago in New York. Those allegations are true, he said. I was an actor in adult films for a short period in the early 70s. I was also an actor in other venues including off Broadway, soap operas and commercial advertisements.

Actually, not just any porn actor, but one with a pretty gloried pedigree. He seems to have appeared in Deep Throat Part II in addition to Bedroom Bedlam and something called Devils Due. The films all seem to be from the first half of the 1970s. The plot of Devils Due is described thus by IMDb: A young girl fleeing an abusive home life arrives in New York City and becomes involved in a satanic cult. She conspires with the cult leaders two lesbian assistants to take over the coven. Interesting.
