MAYS LANDING, N.J. – Potential jurors in a video blackmail case involving an Atlantic City councilman and his political rivals are being asked if they can tolerate watching a sex tape as part of the evidence.
Ronald Callaway, his brother, David, and Floyd Tally are charged with luring Councilman Eugene Robinson [pictured] to a motel, secretly taping him having sex with a prostitute, and trying to blackmail him.
Jury selection began Tuesday and is expected to last two days.
The Callaways’ brother, former Council President Craig Callaway, pleaded guilty to masterminding the scheme before beginning an unrelated prison term for bribery.
Councilman John Schultz was admitted into the state pre-trial intervention program and dropped from the case.
