Exclusive: Gay Porn Star Ryan Rose Arrested For Felony Battery After Beating Man With Gun, Then Arrested Again For Beating ANOTHER Man In Jail!
No, you didn’t just step out of a time machine into 2013. The year is 2026, and former gay porn star Ryan Rose has been arrested once again, this time for assault with a deadly weapon in Florida, of course. That weapon was a gun, and that’s Rose’s mug shot above, following his arrest back on January 8th. While three months have passed, Str8Up only learned of this news today.
Ryan Rose (legal name Bryan Mahoney) is accused of bludgeoning a man with a gun, striking his head multiple times with the deadly weapon and, as Rose himself admitted, “pistol whipping the shit out of him.” The victim and his girlfriend, who lived at the property where the assault took place, were at the location to take photos of their boats that were being stored there, and Rose—who either worked somewhere on the property or lived nearby, it’s not clear—confronted the man after having some kind of previous altercation with him. Details aren’t entirely clear, but based on the arrest report and affidavit below, it appears that Rose took the gun from the victim and beat him with it, then hid the gun inside the house and told the couple to leave. Again, it’s not clear what kind of history Rose had with the victim and his girlfriend, but Rose was not happy to see them on the property.
Police were obviously called, and Rose was charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, a second degree felony punishable by up to 15 years in prison. Here’s the full arrest report from the Charlotte County Sheriff:
Bond had been set at $15,000, but Rose was apparently not able to pay, because he remained in custody in county jail after his January arrest. We know this because on February 24th, Rose was arrested while in jail and charged again with another felony battery charge, this time for beating a fellow inmate who spit on him. The $15,000 bond for the initial battery charge was revoked, so even if he had the funds now, Rose won’t be released from custody, and he’ll remain in jail pending trial on both counts.
The subsequent charge—battery committed by a jail inmate—is a second degree felony punishable by up to five years in prison. Here’s the arrest report on Rose’s second arrest, which includes details of Rose “grabbing his penis” and appearing to taunt the inmate with whom he brawled, who called Rose a “pussy”:
Looks like Falcon/NakedSword has a sequel to one of their prison movies already written for them. Also, I think Rose has made a bit of gay porn history, becoming the first gay porn star ever to be arrested for a new crime while in jail awaiting trial on other charges.
For those who weren’t paying attention to gay porn 15 years ago, Ryan Rose was a prolific and popular—albeit always controversial and always fighting with someone—performer who primarily worked for Falcon Studios, although he launched his career as Sean Cody’s “Pierce” in 2011. He was previously arrested in April of 2013 for brutally beating and hospitalizing his then-boyfriend Bobby Hart, a pre-Str8Up story that I broke while writing at another publication. Rose had an on again/off again relationship with Falcon, and was eventually fired in 2020 after having various Twitter wars with fellow studio exclusives. He then showed up at Men.com in December of 2020, but that was his last studio scene, and he’s been mostly out of the public eye for the last few years.
While Rose remains behind bars in Florida, his next case management court date is on May 12th, and his booking sheet—which lists his occupation as “ranch hand”—is below. As noted above, if convicted on both counts, Rose faces up to 20 years in prison.
