Gay Porn Star Chris Bines Sentenced on Pot, Money-Laundering Charges

PENSACOLA, Fla. — Gay adult porn star Chris Bines has received a 59-month sentence after pleading guilty to federal charges over conspiring to distribute marijuana and conspiring to commit money laundering.

Bines, a prolific adult performer who has shot for Falcon Studios as an exclusive performer, as well as Men.com and Randy Blue, was apprehended with four other co-conspirators after federal authorities found a California-to-Florida distribution marijuana network that ran for three years until 2017.

More than $3.5 million in cash proceeds from the sale of more than 100 kilograms of marijuana was laundered during the three years, authorities said.

The arrests occurred in Florida, where only legalized medical marijuana is sold.

Bines was ordered to self-surrender by May 21 and begin his sentence. Upon his release in 2023, Bines be on supervised release for three years.
