Default Re: 'Girls Gone Wild' Guilty of 2257 Violations

From another article:

Quote:
Francis agreed to personally pay a $500,000 fine to settle charges in Los Angeles that he failed to keep records of the ages and identities of the women who appeared in his films. As a result, Francis said in a statement, footage of minors engaging in sexually explicit conduct appeared in at least two DVDs he released.
Seems to me he completely failed to document the performers, and as a result, ended up taping a couple minors. Same thing Buckcherry did.

As I said before, I honestly do believe that this sets a precedence that keeps legitimate producers who take the required efforts to follow the law fairly safe from here on out.

Oh and a couple million dollars IS chump change, when compared to GGW's revenues.

Depends, because you don't know how much of that $40 million gross he actually gets to keep. I bet they spend $39 mill on advertising.

Hit me up on ICQ 167909760 or give me a call at 407-699-0130. I'm almost done setting up the studio now with mic, mixer etc. and have my eye on a slick field recorder and will be doing field podcasts so I'd like to hear what you have in mind.

That's what I inferred. Between the legal fees and advertising they spend to brand their name, it's a lot of cash.

If they admitted to filiming minors in sexually explicit videos -- why weren't they busted for CP??

Something isn't Kosher.

WOW!

If that list is any indication of how many videos were undocumented or contained a possible minor, they really got off pretty damn lucky.

How much you wanna bet that if a site that produces hardcore content gets hit with a 2257 violation they go after them MUCH harder?

They do produce hardcore. It's not all just girls flashing tits.

Admitting that they used underage girls was moronic. Why didn't he just say that the girls were of legal age but they neglected to get the necessary copies of their IDs and have them sign model releases?
