Twin Brother Bandits Doubled As Gay Porn Stars

PHILADELPHIA (CBS 3) ― Twin brothers from New Jersey have been charged with burglarizing dozens of stores in the Garden State and in Pennsylvania. But it turns out police are not the only ones who know them.

Taleon and Keyontyli Goffney, 25, were arrested on February 21, in connection with the theft of $2,000 from an ATM inside the Moon's beauty shop at 9th and Washington Streets. Police said the pair is responsible for nearly 40 break-ins in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

As the pair was lead away in handcuffs, only CBS 3 cameras were rolling, but it turns out the brothers have been before the cameras before as gay porn stars.

Police said the twin suspects broke into the South Philadelphia business by punching a hole in the roof. Taleon was arrested at the scene.

His brother was later tracked to the roof of a Center City parking garage at 13th and Locust and taken into custody.

The owner of the store, Ki Moon, is happy at the news of an arrest and shocked that the two suspects are gay porn stars.

The publisher of Philadelphia Gay News said he was not surprised to hear that the two burglary suspects are gay.

"Gay people are in every single aspect of life, it's something we have always said," Mark Segal said. "While they may not be people who are burglars, there are also fire and police people who are also gay."

The Goffney brothers have a preliminary hearing scheduled for Thursday morning.

According to Keyontyli's modeling Web site, where his photos are slightly different than the mug shot released by police, the twin has appeared in a number of films and network shows including SNL and Law & Order.
