PORTLAND, Ore. -- Beau Breedlove, 22, doesn’t have kind words for his former lover.

That changed June 22, 2008.

The Oregon attorney generals office released its report that cleared Mayor Sam Adams of criminal charges.

Breedlove, according to the report, had little credibility because of a shoplifting conviction in Hawaii and a photo spread he did for a gay magazine, Unzipped.

The final report never mentioned Adams’ credibility. He repeatedly lied about his relationship with Breedlove.

Adams was under investigation for allegations he may have kissed Breedlove before he was 18.

Breedlove says it happened, in a city hall bathroom during a First Thursday celebration in 2005.

“My best recollection is a security guard walked in right when we were finished. It was one of those situations when you panic because you know you’ve been caught.”

Breedlove says he was convinced Mayor Adams would come clean, but was disappointed.

“It really upsets me. It’s just lie after lie after lie until we’re at the end of the bowl and the last person to be burned from the situation is me.”

Adams told investigators he didn’t recall what happened in the bathroom.. He told KGW nothing happened.

Breedlove accusations run deeper.

He accuses Mayor Adams of trying to mislead investigators by covering up phone calls the two had during the investigation.

“He would send me a random text message like I hope that you made up with your boyfriend when the conversation was nothing about that. At the time, I thought it was fine because he was trying to protect himself.”

NewsChannel 8 tried to call Mayor Adams several times, but no one from his office called us back.
