Even then, they were told to act bubbly and excited during filming, or risk being docked even more pay. In the case of one young woman (Jane Doe #17), she wasn’t even told that she was filming a sex scene until she arrived at the hotel, and was pressured into it by the men present in the hotel room – who began plying her with alcohol the moment that she got there. In the end, Jane was only paid $3,000 – roughly half of what she had been originally promised. The men present at the hotel told them that that wasn’t their fault, it all had to do with the executives at the company; but if she backed out now, she would get paid nothing.

In response to the initial complaint against the company, Pratt denied the charges, saying through his attorney that the plaintiffs had “failed to exercise ordinary and reasonable care on their own behalf,” and thus had no right to claim damages. He also attempted to stall the trial by declaring bankruptcy in January, writing in a text message that “as soon as i bankrupt the business they [the plaintiffs] are fucked.” Last month, he fled the country and is officially considered a “fugitive” by the FBI. Twenty-one days after her 22nd birthday, she boarded a flight to San Diego that, unbeknownst to her, would change her life forever. Jane Doe grew up in Washington state with a loving family, never expecting that she’d be victimized by one of the largest trafficking schemes to date in today’s mainstream porn industry. Althaus is one of dozens of victims who have brought similar allegations against GirlsDoPorn and websites like Pornhub that promoted the since-closed website’s content, “generated millions of dollars in revenue,” the lawsuit states. “Unfortunately, GirlsDoPorn had posted the first video of Plaintiff on MindGeek’s network, and the video became wildly successful.
Justice Department to Criminally Charge Boeing for Breaching 737 Max Settlement: Reports
- This individual had been “attempting to groom minors for sex trafficking,” which fit in with the DOJ’s filing.
- After this mysterious vacation, he flew from Tijuana, Mexico to New Zealand, and his trail has gone cold ever since.
- She told me she’d had four miscarriages, and while she and her husband wanted to have more children, she felt overwhelmed by the prospect of trying again.
- When the women declined to participate in the shoots because they feared the footage would be uploaded online, the group lied and told them the videos would “only be distributed outside the U.S. on DVD or to supposed private collectors overseas,” the documents said.
- Several women described during his sentencing hearing how links to their videos were sent en masse to family members, friends and co-workers, sabotaging their employment prospects and ruining familial relationships to this day.
With the rise of generative AI, more people are at risk, as it becomes easier and easier to create fake images of anyone. It’s not all that surprising, then, that many young women grow up having an aversion to their periods and feeling pressure to shave their pubic hair, entering adulthood all too often having never uttered the word “labia” and without knowing what a clitoris is, where it is, and/or what to do with it. Most American parents, sex educators repeatedly point out, either ignore the subject completely or teach their children myths about where babies come from when they are very young, and leave it at that. In light of the horrid shame of Paley’s generation, my mother giving me the American Girl body book was quite progressive. But what kids learn in health class doesn’t align with what the internet and popular culture tells them—not that TV, music, and movies are all that illuminating on the subject.
In writing about this case, Samantha Cole described the genre as “a fantasy that plays on coercion, and a real-life version of the ‘casting couch’ porn trope, which blurs the line between reality and fiction”—and sex trafficking, we may add. When the value of a porn performer begins high and diminishes rapidly, no wonder there is exploitation of young women. This particular scheme preyed on young women looking to get into modeling and/or make quick cash and ultimately turned it into porn encouraging a culture of sexual entitlement. He ordered Girls Do Porn’s founder, Michael James Pratt, 36, his business partner, Matthew Isaac Wolfe, 37, and porn actor Ruben Andre Garcia, 31, to hand over all images, videos, likenesses, and copyrights and to take “active steps” to remove them from circulation. After a long legal battle, a California judge not only ordered Girls Do Porn to pay out $12.7 million in damages, but granted the Jane Does ownership rights to the content. Following this announcement, a video was uploaded to the BangBros YouTube channel, showing an unknown person standing over a pile of hard drives – containing the information compiled on PornWikiLeaks – along with a bottle of lighter fluid and a lighter.

- Pratt and his co-defendants allegedly paid other women to pose as “reference women” to falsely assure the victims that their videos would not be uploaded to the internet.
- What Girls Do Porn has done to these women—almost certainly more than the 22 included in this lawsuit—is beyond serious.
- The National Center runs the CyberTipline national reporting service for online exploitation of children.
Jonathan made the final arrangements, and Jane prepared to be treated like a celebrity for a day. Also in October 2015, Jane Doe 17 said she was tagged in an Instagram post advertising the pornographic video she had filmed after responding to a Craigslist ad, which she thought no one would ever see. The post on the Girls Do Porn account included a photo of her on a hotel bed captioned “Coming soon.” The next day, she filed a report at the San Diego Police Department. She felt as though she hadn’t truly consented to being filmed because she was deceived about where the video would be released. She also said she wasn’t allowed to leave the shoot when she said she was in pain and asked to stop. Viewers shared the link to the video on the Yelp page for her mother’s hair salon, her ex-boyfriend’s fraternity played it during a chapter meeting, and she dropped out of school because she was too scared to go to class.

Five years after he fled the country and minutes before his former right-hand man was sentenced in federal court, authorities announced that the alleged mastermind behind the GirlsDoPorn sex-trafficking ring had touched down in San Diego in federal custody. “If we are going to be inclusive, we need to be intentional about the language we use and making sure that it doesn’t accidentally stigmatize people who work in the porn industry or people who do sex work, because they also can become victims of the same thing we’re fighting against,” Buster said. The illegal distribution of real or fake sexual images can have massive effects on a survivor’s socialization and mental health. In their 2014 article “Criminalizing Revenge Porn,” law professors Danielle Citron and Mary Anne Franks discuss reports that survivors completely withdraw from online life. If the images are tied to a survivor’s name, it can make job applications or background checks impossible.
At some point we realize we’ve never quite recovered from the grisly pictures imposed on us in health class all those years ago. Superficial, often poorly taught sex ed and a pervasive cultural shh leave many people in the dark, missing out on or avoiding candid conversations about sex and all it entails. I recalled a conversation I’d had with a woman named Cynthia, a young mother of three who grew up in rural southwest Virginia. Cynthia was raised in a Pentecostal family; James, her husband, is a strict Catholic who doesn’t believe in birth control. While less drastic than Paley’s, hurdles have persisted for generations of women since.
