This would be a great class project for students of criminology. They’d just have to be careful not to start it at the start of a school term so perps couldn’t catch on.

And the dad went straight to the principal, who looked at the security footage and immediately put the teacher on administrative hold. This is how you protect children.

They went back and looked at other tapes. But yeah, apparently this was the first parent to complain. The kids were so young and being groomed, so they didn’t know what was happening wasn’t good.

“The best we can do is decriminalize sex work so that sex workers who get robbed or raped—or bamboozled—can speak out immediately and not get re-traumatized by litigation further down the line,” Trouble added. “Stigma against porn and sex work is what makes men like this think they can get away with exploiting struggling women or established professionals.”
Performers should never feel pressured on-set, and producers who coerce performers should be held accountable, Alison Boden, CEO of Kink and board member of the nonprofit adult industry rights group Free Speech Coalition, told Motherboard. “We know that as technology and distribution has changed, it’s opened the door to unethical producers disconnected from the legitimate industry,” she said. Earlier this month, Kink.com launched new, global consent protocols for its film shoots.

I have a good friend who has worked in adult media as a model, and has experience with people who do not seem to be able to grasp that “freedom of expression” and “freedom from exploitation/abuse” can be mutually inclusive.
The problem doesn’t lie in performers’ decision to work in porn, but rather in some people’s base desire to, or to be complicit in the exploitation, domination, or humiliation of others, largely men on women.
