Three individuals have been arrested on charges of operating a “high-end brothel network” in Massachusetts and Virginia with a clientele that included elected officials, military officers and government contractors with security clearances, the Justice Department announced Wednesday.
Maybe not as simple as “film it and you’re good”, but an entire ‘studio’ (GDP) was relatively recently shut down because they told the women it wouldn’t be seen by anyone (a lie), and many of the women felt assaulted afterwards. Besides just for money, I am positive that the ‘producers’ for this were using the porn loophole to rape these women. On top of that, there are plenty of other ‘studios’ that are all about hiring escorts and filming the encounter.
It’s very much a loophole that is abused. Whether or not the people who are responsible are caught, that’s another story.
The only thing that can help with this is legalizing and regulating sex work so that people involved don’t have to (and in many cases, cannot) do it completely in the shadows anymore.
