"Girls Gone Wild Founder Claims Abuse"

Joe Francis doesn't like the way he's been treated in jail. CLICK HERE to read the article accompanying this headline.

'Girls Gone Wild' Founder Claims Abuse

The millionaire producer of the "Girls Gone Wild" video series has accused guards of abusing him during his brief stay at an Oklahoma jail, a newspaper reported Friday.

Guards at the Grady County Law Enforcement Center denied Joe Francis food and blankets and threatened to strap him naked to a chair for 48 hours, Francis' attorneys alleged last month in court papers seeking his release on bail in a Florida case, The Oklahoman reported.

Francis, 34, was held at the jail from May 17 to June 4 while being moved from a Florida jail to a federal facility in Reno, Nev., where he is awaiting trial next year on a tax evasion charge.

Grady County officials denied the accusations, telling the newspaper that guards never threatened to strap Francis to a chair, that Francis had an extra blanket he shouldn't have had confiscated and that his transfer was delayed because his family had somehow found out when he was to have been moved, creating a potential security risk.

"Mr. Francis was treated like every inmate that comes through the Grady County Law Enforcement Center," jail administrator Shane Wyatt told the newspaper.

Francis' attorneys declined a request from the newspaper to discuss the allegations.

Francis has made millions of dollars with the "Girls Gone Wild" videos, which feature young women in sexually provocative situations.

He has been in jail since April, when he was cited for contempt after yelling at attorneys during mediation in a federal lawsuit brought by women who were underage when his production company filmed them in 2003.

That lawsuit has since been settled, but Francis' bond was revoked on criminal charges related to the 2003 filming when he was charged with having contraband — $700 and prescription anti-anxiety medication — in the Bay County jail.

Federal officials then extradited him to Nevada to face tax evasion charges.

    So Joe claims abuse. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
    I'm sure loving mothers of teenage girls nationwide hearts all bleed for you, dude, along with everyone else who faithfully pays their due to the IRS. Contraband is contraband, even if your name is Joe Francis. Pffft. After reading months of this guy's 'the sky is falling', IMHO he'd cry abuse at a paper cut. This yakky diva boy can dish it out, but he can't take it. Nothing he's done has him acting like a man.

    Oh Boo Hoo! Ain't Karma a bitch? Asshole is getting what he deserves and perhaps he should have paid his taxes, carded his topless chicks and not tried to bring contraband items or bribe guards if he did not want to be in the situation he is in. Sure, hindsight is always 20/20 but come on, he is probably still getting better treatment than most of the other inmates because of his status.
    I hope he serves another 20!

  47. Perez is turning into an ass says – reply to this


    47

    Perez ya know once again, here you go taking something NOT funny and twisting it because you are not well. Here is the thing, there are laws about the way you can treat people in jail. And in the USA we violate that every friggin day and ignore it. He is no murderer. And those asswipe hammered girls, that is their problem. He is in jail for tax evasion and no other reason. If there was no market for girls gone wild, do you think that he would have done it? If it wasnt REAL would he have done it? SHAME ON WOMEN for even being in a position where a stereotypical male can come in and make money by simply videoing the crap they do. They should be ashamed of THEMSELVES but honestly, they put themselves in that position. They are NOT innocent. They are behaving like whores and got treated like that. As for him, he is in for a WHITE COLLAR CRIME not pornography, not murder, nothing like that. The notion that he was threatened with TORTURE in a country that is allegedly civilized is nothing short of a disgrace of everything we hold sacred in this country. Get over yourself PEREZ because if these same people who concur that the laws of how to treat prisoners are trivial, well these same assholes would just as soon lock you up for being gay… . so you better open your eyes to the bigger problem and stop stooping to an all time low.

    I'm sorry you're unhappy. So sorry that you grieve. So sad that you're dissatisfied with the treatment you receive. Perhaps, when you feel lonely in that cold and heartless jail, you can warm yourself with memories of all that teenaged tail. You know, the kids you photographed with their shirts all hoisted high, the sexy pics of people's girls that made their father's cry…Cuddle up in the bed you made while all the wide world watches, and pay the price for making cash off people's babies' crotches. You deserve what you're getting, punk. Suck it up.

    On behalf of lawyers everywhere - thank you Joe Francis. Without people like you, we might actually have to work. Instead, we file claims that will be thrown out as soon as the judge quits laughing and buy ourselves even better tits than the ones you paid to film.

    i completely believe that he is being treated like every other inmate in that facility. it's jail, sweetheart, nothing personal. in there you get treated like a number and prison guards are not hired for their impeccable manners.

  53. Question of Ethics says – reply to this


    53

    Re: Perez is turning into an ass – These were immature girls who foolishly joined in the 'me, too' soft porn culture that he, the adult, perpetrated and actively promoted like a fun party. He abused his more mature position and misguided the whole lot of them. The fact that they did it means they reap the consequences for the rest of their lives, but what Joe did is so much more wrong because he knowingly took advantage of young girls who are not yet fully formed regarding actions and consequences. Anyway, he's in for contraband and awaiting tax evasion, not the unethical videos.

    I was reading this with some skepticism until I read the part about tying him up "naked" but now I'm sure he's lying. HA!!! There he goes with that naked stuff again. He can't get his mind on anything else, can he?

  55. Jens says – reply to this


    55

    Re: Randi
    Awesome! I can't rhyme to save my life…
    But yeah,
    no one cares, Joe, shut up.
    Maybe don't break the law and land yourself in jail in the first place?
    Um and I'm not sure about this but aren't the girls 18+ in his vids?
    I'm not in the loop about the GGW stuff but I mean there's plenty of trashy girls out there who think it's sexy or gratifying to flash their bits for 15 seconds of fame. I don't condone his business but people make their own decisions.
    Gross, yes, but don't forget about Girls Gone Stupid, too.

  62. Joe Tortures Everyone Else says – reply to this


    62

    Re: Perez is turning into an ass – Torture? This whiny drama queen guy never shuts the eff up. Threatened to tie him to a chair naked? They were kind. Most would just tie him immediately rather than threaten. He squaks and squaks and squaks non stop. If he were in an institution they'd control his type with legal pharmaceuticals to help him get himself under control. Joe doesn't seem big on self control. Why the hell do you think they would allegedly threatened this??? For no reason??? In my opinion, Joe probably actually tortures the gaurds who probably just want him to shut his yap so they can get some peace and do their jobs.

    75

    I hope they rape his ass in prison. He deserves it for getting so many young women drunk to get them to take off their clothes. In some cases his crew has also raped some of the girls. If karma really does exist he'll be gang raped in the shower and forced to sit around naked while the guards torture him and make him suck their dicks.

    Re: Question of Ethics – #64 Oh puhleeeeeeeez!!!! How old do people need to be before they are "fully formed regarding actions and consequences". Are you fukking kidding? Those girls all knew what they were doing. I'm not siding with that porno creep, but those girls knew exactly what they were doing. They're a bunch of cheap tramps who think if they show their tits to the world, that they'll become celebrities some day. It's the American dream, and they were willingly stupid enough to think he'd be their ticket to fame and fortune. He's a freak who takes advantage of weak-willed/minded individuals, but those girls happily played along for a few bucks and their 15 minutes of fame. No wonder the U.S, is such a joke to the rest of the world, its breeding children with no common sense whatsoever, and void of decency.
