Biography of Brent Corrigan
IntroductionBrent Corrigan is an American gay model and adult film actor who gained rapid fame as one of the most prominent actors of the "Cobra Video" studio. His films with unprotected sex themes topped the ratings and sales charts.
Early Career
Corrigan began his porn career in 2004 at the "Cobra Video" studio, starring in the film "Every Poolboy's Dream" under the name Brent Corrigan. His career as a performer was characterized by diverse sexual activities, including semen swallowing, rimming, and his first double anal penetration in "Cobra Video" films with actors Chase McKenzie and Brent Everett.
Underage Controversy
In September 2005, Corrigan made a statement claiming that he had falsified his identification documents to shoot his early films when he was underage. He and "Cobra Video" each created their own "official" websites to promote him. Corrigan stated that he was born in Lewiston, Idaho, raised by his stepfather in Seattle, Washington, and moved to San Diego, California in 2004 to live with his mother. After arriving in San Diego, he was left by his mother and forced to take care of himself.
Alleged Underage Video
Corrigan claimed that shortly before his 17th birthday, his older boyfriend contacted the producer of "Cobra Video" and showed them a nude, sleeping video of Corrigan using a webcam. In September 2005, Corrigan's lawyer publicly stated that he was underage when he appeared in several films for "Cobra Video". Corrigan later revealed in an interview that he had clearly indicated to his producer multiple times that he was underage, but the producer ignored his concerns. Corrigan also claimed that the producer sent him a threatening email, stating that if Corrigan was underage during the filming, it would be his problem, not theirs.
Legal Battle
After Corrigan's confession and the subsequent recall of the controversial films, "Cobra Video" filed a lawsuit against Corrigan and his business partners in federal court in San Diego, California. The studio accused Corrigan of trademark infringement and breach of contract. Corrigan was also accused of cybersquatting by registering the domain name www.brentcorriganonline.com, which resembled "Cobra Video's" domain name www.brentcorriganxxx.com. The plaintiffs estimated damages at $1 million and sought to prohibit Corrigan from using the stage name "Brent Corrigan" as it was their protected trademark.
Tragic Events
In January 2007, Corrigan and Brian Kocis, the owner and founder of "Cobra Video," reached a preliminary settlement agreement. However, on January 24, 2007, Kocis was found dead in his Pennsylvania home. His throat had been slit, he had suffered 28 stab wounds, and his house was set on fire to conceal the murder. Corrigan's lawyer stated that his client was one of several people questioned and that Corrigan was cooperating fully with the police investigation.
Arrest and Murder Charges
On May 15, 2007, two male escorts and rival gay porn producers, Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Manuel Kerekes, were charged with the murder of Kocis. Authorities allege that the two men killed Kocis as part of a plan to acquire Corrigan to work for their adult film company.
