Good for those women. They deserve ever cent of the money. The people involved in the criminals side of this deserve prison time and are almost as bad and pedphiles and pimps.
These girls were lied to and then intimidated into doing drugs and drinking and into doing porn. What a bunch of scumbags. I mean, who does that?
Defendants' assurances of privacy and security are reinforced by paid "references"- 14 women hired who are or pose as previous models and (in accordance with a script) provide new 15 recruits with false comfort that the experience is safe and enjoyable, and that the videos have never 16 appeared online or been discovered by anyone in the models' lives.
Defendants increase 28 viewership of the videos by deliberately leaking and disseminating their true identities and personal information-including by sending the videos directly to the models' friends, family members, 2 classmates, employers, and social media contacts. This is similar to a direct-marketing promotional 3 device that makes the videos "go viral" in the models' communities. When the women inevitably 4 learn what Defendants have done with their videos, many complain to Defendants, begging them to 5 remove the videos from the internet. In response, Defendants usually simply ignore any such 6 messages and block the complaining model.
Defendants rush and pressure the woman to 21 sign the documents quickly without reading them and engage in other deceptive, coercive, and 22 threatening behavior to secure their signatures as described below.
However, by the time models have arrived in San Diego and filming is about 14 to begin, they have no choice but to relent and proceed with the shoot. Defendants threaten them 15 with consequences if they do not do so.
[Defendants said the private collector signed a contract 4 that he would not redistribute DVD] Defendants said the 5 DVD was encrypted and could not be copied]; [Defendants 6 said that if the video did somehow end up online, they had ways of taking it down].)
