YOU CAN RUN, JOE, BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE!

WHY I HATE JOE FRANCIS

I HATE Joe Francis. He is the infamous creator of the low-budget videos, "Girls Gone Wild". He is only 34, yet is the epitome of a true misogynist and a pimp to boot. He makes money off inebriated women who he encourages to flash their breasts, privates and perform sexual acts on camera.


One can say that it is the woman's fault for their own actions, but the difference is that he PREYS on girls during spring break and other areas where women are on vacation and are under the influence of intoxicants. In fact, some of them have been MINORS. He is a sick bastard and I hope he ROTS IN HELL when he meets his maker.


I am embarrassed and ashamed for his mother. What kind of parents would raise their son to believe it is morally acceptable to capitalize on this kind of "business"? It's wrong and it's disgusting.

At least strippers and porn stars get PAID.

The only person who gets paid is JOE FRANCIS.

So I am thrilled to report that Joe Francis was arrested today in Florida at the Panama City airport on a warrant for criminal contempt of court. A judge ordered Francis's arrest last week after Francis reportedly changed the terms of a settlement deal stemming from a 2003 lawsuit in which seven women accused him of victimizing them by filming them in sexual situations while they were on spring break in Panama City.

Francis was ordered by U.S. District Judge Richard Smoak to surrender to authorities in Panama City by noon last Thursday to begin serving jail time for contempt of court, but Francis never showed up! Yet he told Geraldo on Monday, "I'm not trying to hide at all. I'm on my way to Florida right now to turn myself in and comply with the judge's order. I would never run from justice."


How could he have not been arrested then? If he didn't show up on Thursday, then a warrant for his arrest should have been ordered and they could have arrested him during his interview!

WHY DO I HATE JOE FRANCIS? HERE'S AN EXAMPLE:

In an August 6, 2006 issue of West (the Sunday magazine of the Los Angeles Times), an article by Claire Hoffman followed Francis across the country. In it, Hoffman bore witness to Francis' numerous alleged illegal activities, including habitual supply of alcohol to underage girls.

Hoffman reported Francis' alleged rape of an 18 year old virgin, Jannel Szyszka. Quoting Szyska, who was under the legal drinking age in the USA and had allegedly been supplied by alcohol by Francis and her entourage, Hoffman wrote, "Eventually, Szyszka says, Francis told the cameraman to leave and pushed her back on the bed, undid his jeans and climbed on top of her.

"I told him it hurt, and he kept doing it. And I keep telling him it hurts. I said, 'No' twice in the beginning, and during I started saying, 'Oh, my god, it hurts.' I kept telling him it hurt, but he kept going, and he said he was sorry but kissed me so I wouldn't keep talking." ... Then, she says, he opened the door and told the cameraman to come back, saying, "She's not a virgin anymore."...She says she's haunted by that night".

After the report was published, Francis denied that he engaged in sexual intercourse with Szyszka, while his lawyer claimed that intercourse had occurred consensually.

Hoffman also reported that she herself was assaulted and "humiliated" physically by Francis in front of his cheering entourage, stating that "the pressure he applied was so intense that hours later, my arms were covered in red hand marks".

MORE REASONS I HATE JOE FRANCIS:

• Francis has been criticised by social commentators and third wave feminists such as Ariel Levy for perpetuating "the new double standard" which equates the objectification of women with sexual liberation.
  

• Francis' rap sheet include allegations of rape, sexual assault and conspiracy to use minors in sexual performances. The recurring allegations include that women engaged in sexual activity were covertly filmed without their consent, and that Mantra films (his company) engaged in sexual exploitation of minors.
  

• In an incident at Panama City Beach, Florida, during spring break 2003, Francis was arrested and initially charged with 71 separate counts which included racketeering, drug trafficking, and child pornography.
  

• In March 2004, a Texas college student accused Francis of raping her in his Miami hotel room. She told police that after she met Francis in a bar in South Beach, Florida, where they argued over the morality of "Girls Gone Wild" videos, she went to his room at the Ritz-Carlton for a drink and awoke the next morning in bed next to him with no memory of the previous evening after Francis had offered her a drink. Again, Francis reported that he had consensual sex with the woman.
  

• In 2000, the property manager of Francis' Santa Monica apartment, Stephanie Van de Motter, obtained a restraining order requiring that he stay at least 100 yards away from her. She said that Francis, upset about the noise garbage collectors made in the mornings, had harassed and threatened her twice by climbing up to her bedroom window and pounding violently on the glass while screaming obscenities at her. He also appeared in her office several times asking for her by using the "c-word" and left messages with her co-worker saying, "Tell the bitch this is war."
  

• In 2003, Darian Mathias-Patterson, who scouted locations and arranged for the rental of a space for a Halloween party Francis threw, filed a police report that he threatened to kill her when she told him she couldn't return his $25,000 deposit because the 2,000 guests had trashed the place. She told police he said, "I'm going to fucking get you, you fucking whore" and repeatedly used the "c-word". Two weeks later, Mathias-Patterson, who was pregnant, miscarried. She later sued Francis and his company in Los Angeles County Superior Court for emotional distress, and the case was settled for an undisclosed amount.

• In 2002, Becky Lynn Gritzke discovered that she had been covertly filmed flashing her breasts at a Mardi Gras festival and that the image had been used without her permission on billboards advertising Girls' Gone Wild videos and even on the cover of a GGW video.
