Hunter Biden was a member of an elite Los Angeles sex club but was kicked out for being a ‘scumbag,’ the club’s founder has said.
The founder, 52-year-old Damon Lawner, opened the exclusive Snctm club but sold it in 2019. He was banned from the venue after he publicly identified president Joe Biden’s son Hunter as a former member.
Lawner founded Snctm in 2013 with the intention of creating a sex playground for LA’s elite, ranging from Hollywood stars, musicians, high-ranking business figures, city officials and millionaires.
He told the newspaper that he decided to open the club after watching the Tom Cruise movie ‘Eyes Wide Shut,’ in which wealthy elites gather for a secret orgy.
At the time, he was $1 million/Ksh139 million in debt, but the club soon gained popularity. Its guest lists were carefully curated, and its membership fees were as high as $75,000/Ksh10 million.
Lawner opted to sell his exclusive club five years after he sold it because his lifestyle had ruined his relationship with his family.
He told the LA Times he has since attended events, but only to show friends what it was like inside – and lifted the lid on one of the club’s members, breaking a taboo.
“Hunter was a member at Snctm and I canceled his membership after 1 party because he’s a scumbag,” Lawner wrote on Instagram in a now-deleted post.
The current ownership of the elite club took issue with his claim and banned him from its events that he once hosted.
“Posting what I did on my Instagram about Hunter was me letting people know that the type of behavior that he exhibited was something that upsets me. I knew that the consequences could be me not being part of Snctm anymore, but I was willing to take that risk,” Lawner told the LA Times.
He said he was not fazed by the ban, saying he wanted no part in the club anymore.
A spokesperson for Snctm told the LA Times the club has a policy of never identifying its members and that any infringement of the rules results in a lifetime ban.
The publication said Lawner made the claim that Hunter had been a member of the club after he had reached a plea deal with federal prosecutors this week.
Joe Biden’s controversial son will go before a judge next month to formally strike a plea agreement with prosecutors on tax and gun charges that will likely spare him time behind bars, according to court documents posted Wednesday.
