the moral here is if a judge tells you to do something and you agree to do it, you dam well better do it.

So if a Judge tells you to settle a Civil lawsuit for $70,000,000 with 7 girls who lied about their age you should do it? Sounds more like extortion to me?

what about the tape with joe telling the girls to lie about their age? oh yea lets not let the facts get in the way.
maybe you could start a joe francis fan club

I dunno? You tell me? He wasn't present when the 7 girls signed release forms lying about their age. He wasn't there and he has never seen the tape.

I'm not a Joe Francis fan, I just don't agree with him sitting in jail for no reason. How would you like it if you were sued and without a trail a Judge ordered you to pay or go to jail?

Your right! As a defendant you have the RIGHT to a trial either by judge or jury and he was refused the right to receive a trial by a jury.

what does this have to do with trucking anyway?

No reason? If these were your relatives who were CONNED/COERCED to do what basically comes down to child porn / delinquency of a minor and all other sorts of other crimes, this scumbag had the chance to pay a small fine (comparatively) and walk away clean to continue his scumbag ways. He needs to get raped in the jail a few times...then given the choice again. He's been playing this innocent game for far too long and he's not as cute nor charming to the rest of the world as he is to the kids he's scamming just take dirty picture of... He's just a pervert who makes money taking dirty pictures and thinks he will beat the rap by playing the victim...

I can tell you from my own personal experience that spring break is not a place were innocent boys and girls gather to discuss Bible hymns and drink Koolaid, so I don't buy your idea "what if it was your relative who was conned/coerced" instead ask why these parents were so naive to what their daughters were doing? There are two reasons why young adults go to Florida for spring break, get drunk and get...... well you can fill in the blank.

But seriously Fozzy, read the link I posted and read his legal story. I agree his not a saint but he doesn't deserve what he's getting.
