NJ city councilman: Sex was last thing on my mind

MAYS LANDING, N.J. — Eugene Robinson said sex was the last thing on his mind as he drove the pretty young girl who had asked for a ride to her motel.

"I was waiting for God to send me the one that's supposed to be my Christian wife," he said. "That's what it says in the Bible."

Yet within minutes of taking the girl to a cheap motel in neighboring Absecon, the 67-year-old Atlantic City Councilman and Baptist minister was receiving oral sex.

"I was so surprised," he testified Wednesday in an Atlantic County courtroom. "I, um, hadn't really had any sexual activity since '89. I thought that, naively, we were going to just pet."

He didn't know that the woman was a prostitute hired by his political rivals to lure him into a sex sting, and that a camera hidden in a clock radio near the bed was recording the tryst.

MAYS LANDING, N.J. — Jurors at the trial of three men accused of trying to blackmail an Atlantic City councilman have seen the beginning of a sex tape.

The secretly recorded tape shown Tuesday depicts Councilman Eugene Robinson with a prostitute in a motel room. Kristyn Haino (HAY'-noh) and Robinson, who also is a Baptist minister, are seen embracing and kissing on the 10-second clip.

Haino, a Tuckerton native who now lives in Virginia Beach, Va., testified that Robinson kept up a steady stream of vulgar, offensive talk while she performed oral sex.

She said he later slipped her a business card with the words "City Councilman" on it.

Floyd Tally and brothers David and Ronald Callaway face charges of conspiracy, criminal coercion and invasion of privacy. They deny the accusations.
