Hey, so I came across Lawson’s profile on rentmen after meeting him about 2 years ago. I just wanted to share my experience with him. It’s a pretty crazy story if you’re in the mood to read.
I booked a room at a really nice hotel. It was a spacious one-bedroom suite in Downtown LA. This was my first escort/sexual encounter in some time (about 2 years exactly) due to COVID. I’m a heavyset guy and feared complications if I got sick, so I remained completely abstinent. I planned to see Lawson as well as a studio porn actor. I was going to see the porn guy first and then Lawson later that afternoon. I met Lawson on Seeking. He was 19 at the time and I was 27. I like to make videos/take pictures, so I brought over my Sony mirrorless camera. It wasn't super high-end model, but it still cost $2100 for the body and a kit lens. I brought some other lenses. Two were about $1000 and the other $2100 (it cost more than the camera body itself). I also had two iPhones and a special edition BTS Android phone. I wanted to have a little photoshoot with Lawson and then make the sex videos, so I brought the various phones to get other angles and I’ve used the BTS phone to store samples of past stuff I’ve made to show as a reference for poses and whatnot. He agreed to film us having sex and everything for $1000.
When he first gets there, I don’t think he looked 100% like his pictures on Twitter. I’m a bottom and all, but I really appreciate a big butt. His butt looked much smaller in-person (made me think he edited his photos to make it look bigger/knows his angles). He also was not as cute. It was honestly the first time I wanted to turn someone away. However, not having had sex in so long, I decided to ignore him not seeming as cute. After we were done, Lawson starts tearing apart the room acting like he lost something (he was digging through the trash, lifting up the mattress, etc). Being nice, I believe him and help him look. The hotel room was this big suite as I mentioned. I had placed all of my tech/camera stuff in my messenger bag. I set it down in the living room area while I helped him look in the bedroom. He then walks over to the living room area as I heard him say “Did you check under the pillows”? The next thing I know, the door slams shut and my bag is gone. I run out immediately and saw that he fled down the emergency exit stairs. I try to give chase, but I'm nowhere near as fast as the speedy demon twink. I luckily still had my main phone (yet another Android) and called the police before heading down to the 1st floor of the hotel. I then started talking with a hotel security guard about the guy and embarrassingly mentioned that it was a casual encounter gone wrong. I was checking my phone constantly and noticed a notification that Lawson was typing something on Snapchat (this was pretty fucked up I have to say – like was he going to tease me that he got away?). In a stroke of pure luck, Lawson gets off the elevator as I am chatting with security (guess the emergency exit stairs only got him so far/or he didn’t want to walk down 50+ stories). I run and grab my messenger bag by one of the straps and refuse to let go. Another security guard shows up and the thief tells him that I am crazy and that he is just trying to go home. The security guard that I spoke with comes to my defense as I pull out a badge from a tech convention I had been to in the past with my name/picture from my bag. The thief lets go, but then he starts to run, so I got suspicious. I checked my bag and the camera is there, but my other phones were missing. I try to give chase again, but no luck. Security is on my side by this point and they manage to trip the thief to the ground. He gets up though and continues to run. I figure my phones are gone, but security comes back with them all. He said that he had to chase the guy for 8 blocks. He then asks me to unlock each phone to prove they are mine, which I gladly do. Security at this hotel was amazing. However, they told me that they let Lawson go and stated he was banned from the premises. Shaken up, I just decided to go home. I told Lawson about my plans after our meet; that I had ordered takeout from a nice steak place nearby. I went to get my food and as I waited for an Uber, I kept looking around my surroundings. I seriously feared for my safety. The fact that he was basically tackled to the ground must have been embarrassing and that he got away without the stuff he tried to steal, had me fearing he would try again. I couldn't stop thinking about how traumatic the experience was. The police called me afterwards and said they spoke with the hotel and that I should call them if I still require police assistance. I got my stuff back, but I really felt the guy deserved to be booked and have something on his record. I didn't think he would suffer much of a penalty, but I don't like how he basically got away with trying to steal over $6,000 in camera equipment and two iPhones yet received nothing more than a quick tackle to the ground and still got $1000 out of it. Lastly, to make matters worse, I watched back one of the videos and noticed that Lawson took off the condom I asked him to wear. Being that I am not all that sexually active (even pre-COVID), I always asked for protection/condoms since I wasn’t on PrEP at the time. I could swear I heard Lawson say something like “Shit is that blood?” yet in the video he removed the condom and tried to top me again for about another minute or two. I wound up testing positive for two STDs. So we have robbery(attempted robbery?) and stealthing.
If you made it this far, thanks for reading. I thought my stuff was gone. He was such a good scammer. Like him taking the phones out of the bag was fiendishly brilliant. His little act with the lost parking pass seemed quite rehearsed too looking back. I don’t think that was his first time trying the act. I didn’t see him with a parking pass when he entered the hotel room. Before he showed up, he asked to see a picture on Snapchat of my camera, which also looking back was a little odd. Did he look up the value of the camera? I guess I should have taken that as a red flag.
He apparently had a history of scamming others on Twitter/X and reddit. He changed his usernames quite often from marsvance to lawsonnhornerr (or some variation) and even had other names too when he would get called out. I saw one instance that he tried to sell feet pics and blocked the guy when he got payment, but never delivered the pics. With me, he certainly seemed to escalate things. I wish I had done my research before what happened to me. I wanted to warn others and made a little Grindr profile sharing my story (and even used mock locations to pretend to follow him to New York). His friends reached out and told me Lawson only tried to rob me because he didn’t want me to have the videos/pictures. That’s what we had agreed on, so if he was uncomfortable with the arrangement, I wonder why he chose to meet up with me.
tldr; exercise extreme caution if you meet this guy. I still have the content we made and I just have it stored on my hard drive buried in a series of folders so I don’t really come across the images of that traumatic day.
