A porn mogul. A rising star. And a jealousy-fueled murder that rocked the gay adult film industry.
When the body of Bryan Kocis—founder of Cobra Video—was discovered in his Pennsylvania home, burned and stabbed nearly 30 times, investigators were left with a tangled web of motives. At the center: a young, up-and-coming star named Brent Corrigan, a bitter contract dispute, and two rivals who would go to deadly lengths to break into the business.
This case has it all—identity fraud, staged auditions, a fake agent, and a plot that unfolded like something out of a twisted erotic thriller. But this wasn’t fiction. It was real. And it ended in blood.
In this episode, Jordi and Brad explore the dark underbelly of the gay porn world, where sex, power, and ambition collided in one of the most bizarre and sensational LGBTQ+ true crime stories in modern history.
Grab a drink. Press play. And prepare for a murder that’s as salacious as it is tragic.
