Ex Abercrombie & Fitch CEO and Partner Accused of Orchestrating Global Sex Event Exploitation Ring

Ex Abercrombie & Fitch CEO and Partner Accused of Orchestrating Global Sex Event Exploitation Ring

Former Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries and his British partner, Matthew Smith, are facing serious allegations of exploitation related to sex events they organized globally.

A comprehensive investigation by the BBC revealed a highly organized network that used intermediaries to recruit young men for these events. Eight individuals interviewed by the BBC claimed to have attended these gatherings, with some alleging exploitation and abuse. It's worth noting that neither Mr. Jeffries nor Mr. Smith has responded to requests for comments on these allegations.

The middleman involved in facilitating these events has denied any wrongdoing, asserting that the men attended them voluntarily. Abercrombie & Fitch (A&F), the parent company of Hollister, expressed deep dismay and revulsion at the alleged behavior.

Furthermore, two former US prosecutors who independently examined the evidence and testimonies brought to light by the BBC have suggested that an investigation should be conducted to determine if sex trafficking charges can be pursued. Under US law, sex trafficking encompasses activities that involve coercing or manipulating adults to travel across state or international borders for sexual activities in exchange for money, which raises significant legal concerns in this case.
