    PLease Excuse Me If This Is Inapropriate

    But it's definitely something everybody here needs to be made aware of as this is absolutely a serious thing!!

    http://www.gayporntimes.com/hardnews...rformer-in-uk/


    Folks -- A man named Rufus Ffoulkes was recently jailed for nearly three years in the U.K. for conducting a photo shoot and then making a bareback porn film with a 16-year-old teenager. There is also a director of condomless Brit porn films with the same name. The article where I found this information (follow the link above to my site) does not identify whether they are the same person.


    More critically important, however, is the article (from the U.K.'s Pink News) does not identify whether this film was released to the public. The potential implications are obvious. I've been working my contacts in the U.K. but haven't heard back; it may be too late in the day to reach anyone. I have also contacted Pink News and have not heard back.


    This is too important to wait until offices reopen on Monday. If that film was released to the public, we need to know right away and immediately spread the word to retailers. If anyone has contacts in the U.K., please track them down and let's find out if this movie with the 16-year-old was made for private use or if it was released to the public.


    Regards,
    Ben ("JC Adams")

    That guy is one of the owners of Ikandi, the UK model agency that recruited many models on gaydar and that many websites and studios use. This is not really anything new. Their tactics have been known for a long time.

    In fact one video that is currently out "supposedly" has the models getting infected with HIV. I believe it is in the courts now.

    Rumors have long persisted that Ikandi would solicit minors and "wait" until they became of age to appear in adult films. With info like this it does make you wonder if they REALLY waited until the the model were 18. Doesn't it?

    Now where is that list of companies that use content from Ikandi?

    I believe it was in one of the many threads "censored" from GMS.

    The companies that bought from Ikandi was censored after Sam ask that it be removed. Along with all the other posts after that were made in that thread after it as well. I spent two hours trying to find that thread after the Ikandi story finally broke.

    This was posted on my Blog this morning,maybe Thomas Bjorn at Puppy Productions can confirm.

    I can provide some background on this as I know the UK model who was the source of the criminal complaint.

    The only film featuring this model that was commercially released was Royal Raw Auditions 1, from Puppy Productions. This has, I think, now been withdrawn from sale by Puppy - although there still seem to be lots of copies around:-

    http://www.radvideo.com/details/PUP2...py+Productions

    The model on the left of the front cover (as you look at it) - Richard in the cast list - was the source of the original complaint - because he had not been paid for several shoots. He is not however the 16 year old model referred to in the court case - this I think is the model called "Harry" in that film.

    Royal Raw Auditions has never been released in Europe because of this investigation, which actually began nearly three years ago.

    Rufus Ffoulkes has directed and sourced models for a huge amount of UK films over the last two years, released by companies such as LoadXXX, Bareback Boys, Helix and Eurocreme. There is no indication that underage models were used in any of these - in fact all of the UK releases (from LoadXXX and Bareback Boys) have been certified by the BBFC (British Board Of Film Classifications) - and conclusive proof of age documents have been produced to the BBFC for all of those films. This also applies to the Daddy Darby dvds.

    Other than the Helix dvds, very few of these have been released in the US. So, in terms of suspect films on the market anywhere in the world, the only film directly affected by this court case is Royal Raw Auditions 1.

    I have no wish to defend Ffoulkes in this matter apart from to say that the sentence is not unduly lenient. Both the models concerned worked for him willingly and there was accepted mitigation presented that it was poor ID verification by Ffoulkes rather than a deliberate attempt to film underage models. If there was evidence that he enticed the models into doing porn, the sentence would have been much greater.

    The 1981 incident with the 13 year old was when Ffoulkes himself was 21 and, while deplorable, would not have had a great affect on his sentence this time. His large number of previous offences for fraud would have though!
