...Since the accident, Zachery's renovations have stalled. He has fallen behind on the yard work and hasn't gotten around to hanging his father's portrait - a striking shot of a muscular man in dark briefs. Jerome Zachery wrestled professionally in the 1950s before settling into family life. The champ used to tell his sons, "As long as you have a place to keep the dew off your head, you're O.K." Facing foreclosure, Joseph Zachery worries about pride more than shelter, though. He has rented a storage unit so that his belongings will never be dragged...

Major papers such as The Oregonian dubbed the affair a “sex scandal” and the relationship, “inappropriate.” Rare is coverage of the affair that doesn’t in some way construct the relationship as the older, experienced man taking advantage of a young boy, confused and overwhelmed by his own sexuality.

...Gays feel the sting of Adams’s betrayal because he was their partner in the most literal sense of the word: a man who dealt with prejudice in the public arena and resisted it. But he turned from ally to enemy when his vehement protests were turned against him by his own misdeeds. It’s hardly surprising that the editorial board of Just Out—Portland’s oldest gay publication—called for Adams’s resignation. Tom Swafford—a queer supporter of Adams who donated to his campaign?...
