Scott Thorson Wiki: Salary, Married, Wedding, Spouse, Family
Scott Thorson (born January 23, 1959) (later Jess Marlow) became famous for his relationship with and lawsuit against the late entertainer Liberace and his testimony against gangster Eddie Nash.
I was 17 years old. Liberace had taken me out of a situation with a father who was very abusive, a mother who was mentally ill. I did everything I possibly could to please this man... There's always been a love-hate relationship. At that time, I was so honored to be in his presence. And I didn't want to go back to my lifestyle in the foster homes, which was pure hell.
