Fairfax City, Virginia Mayor Richard "Scott"
Silverthorne was arrested Thursday for allegedly distributing methamphetamine
in exchange for sex, local police
said.
After receiving a tip in late July, an undercover detective
created a profile on a website for arranging sexual encounters between men,
which Silverthorne, 50, was allegedly using to distribute meth.
Undercover officers set up a meeting with the suspect at a
Crowne Plaza Hotel in Tysons Corner, Virginia. After providing the drugs to
officers, Silverthorne was arrested and booked on felony drug charges.
Two other men, Juan Jose Fernandez, 34, and Caustin Lee
McLaughlin, 21, both of Maryland, were arrested as part of the sting operation
for allegedly providing the drugs to Silverthorne.
