Sweet Entertainment Group Busted - GoFuckYourself.com

Spunky · 12-10-2002, 07:37 PM

Just on the news.100's of computers,files,tapes and 4 guys arrested.Apparently these guys were pretty big in the bizz. Made millions per month.According to the press release the cops couldnt discuss the porn as it was too discusting.A woman claimed she was raped and tortured during a shoot.Sweet Entertainment was based in Vancouver and looked like a big sponsor, although I havent heard of them

I'm Slim · 12-10-2002, 07:40 PM

Is this true? Anyone else can confirm this?

BTW, SEG is http://sweetpartners.com/

pr0 · 12-10-2002, 07:40 PM

Disgusting...if they actually raped a women & tortured her, they should be shot

Pipecrew · 12-10-2002, 07:41 PM

hahahahah earlier today Paul Sweet was saying "I dont plan on retiring anytime soon" well think again

heymatty · 12-10-2002, 07:43 PM

hmm i think they had legal issues a while back, pissing, fisting etc. But nothing too serious.

are you sure its not an old story? The media says a lot of shit.

<IMX> · 12-10-2002, 07:43 PM

Yeah it was posted by a content guy on my board...I'm still waiting for the details.

"
I'm waiting to hear more on the local news...the four arrested sounds like the three Sweet brothers and their sister, as all four were in management of the two companies. Diverse Talent Agency was started when their reputation got so bad they couldn't fin models for anything...then they tried to tie them down to Diverse only... and all other photographers had to go through them. They tried to solicit me to join and I told them to go fuck themselves.
"

I'll update you guys in a few.

KRL · 12-10-2002, 07:44 PM

Post the news link for that if you could. That sounds like a setup job.

I am heading up to Vancouver tomorrow to meet with our lawyers. Unfortunately, the Sweets have pushed the limits in content they have shot. They are not exactly smart business people at times and do not know when to back down.......

No doubt this will bring alot of heat on ALL porn companies in Vancouver and all should be prepared thanks to the Sweets. It is pretty well known that fisting, hardcore bdsm, peeing on people, needles, etc is not kosher in Vancouver. Not sure why they felt the need to test the "law".

lamrobertson · 12-10-2002, 07:44 PM

strange their sites are still all up.

ive made pretty decent money with sweet a long time ago.
( the thedirtyoldman.com for example). They are ok in my book.
For sure.

BradShaw · 12-10-2002, 07:48 PM

I heard news of this last week from my people in Vancouver, took some time to hit the press. (we produce more porn in vancouver than anyone)

But, now the press is ALL over it, and this is ALL over TV. Anyone familiar with the situation will tell you that the Sweets brought alot of this on themselves and that this is NO surprise. This started with complaints from models to the police, and the investigation was launched.

Personally, I am surprised this did not happen sooner as they had been under investigation for some time.

Lensman · 12-10-2002, 07:50 PM

This is BIG.

Brad, you better not step foot in Canada.

I always liked Sweet's content but then again I'm in porn! Maybe his content wasnt acceptable for Vancouver standards...

KRL · 12-10-2002, 07:51 PM

Yep, this is what happens when you think you can do whatever you want in porn, and don't stay on the safe side of the fence.

Fucking stupid and more bad PR for our biz.

BradShaw · 12-10-2002, 07:51 PM

I will be there tomorrow.

This is big no doubt, and our sites are all 100% legal. Nobody gets raped, they are actors, not even rape scenarios, that is over the line.

pr0 · 12-10-2002, 07:52 PM

Ummm the name "PaulSweet" was just posting on gfy today...

How is that possible?

I saw those chicks, they have to rape guys. No guy in there right mind would do them!

BradShaw · 12-10-2002, 07:52 PM

Slim, fisting, peeing on a girls face, hardcore bdsm, spitting in a girls face, is not kosher in Vancouver. That is well known. I agree, it can be hard to draw the line in porn, but some of this is a no brainer.

Any opinion on what webmasters who have purchased content from them that may be "questionable?"

I'm Slim · 12-10-2002, 07:57 PM

Agreed Bradshaw, it all depends on the community you live in. Guess it didnt fly in Vancouver.

All the videos I produce, I send to the local film boards to ensure the legality of it and see what parts I have to edit to make the scene acceptable. Anything to keep my hairy ass out of jail

Lensman · 12-10-2002, 07:57 PM

Brad, I'm just jerking your chain.

But if I were you, I'd pack up shop there. Shit like this has a tendancy to spread. Either that, or just make Greg the scapegoat!

<IMX> · 12-10-2002, 07:57 PM

Wow, dude would be turned sweet...

Just listened to a news report...damn. WTF were they thinking?

x582 · 12-10-2002, 07:57 PM

This is very disturbing. Is there anything we can do now? Like calling the police before we launch a site just to see if it's within community standards?

This is rediculous, how are you supposed to know if what you are shooting is legal or not - I don't know too much about sweet, the way they were treating their model, but...

I've been in their studios last summer and the RCMP (federal police) was spying on them. We saw a couple RCMP cars driving around noting our license plate number, etc.

BradShaw · 12-10-2002, 07:58 PM

Mojo, everyone should consult their own lawyer. I know we used to run a peeing site, took it down based on our lawyers advice a long time ago....

Kimmykim · 12-10-2002, 07:58 PM

Will be interesting to see just what basis the Canadian law uses for the obscenity charges. Isn't porn that is considered degrading to women a no no up there?

Yup. I remember we were advertisng for LoveZoo.com about 4 years ago. We had up one banner on an exit and Greg Piccionelli calls us and says "Guys, you can't do this! You got a girl, and you got a horse!!!"

Well the police just do what other people tell them. As far as I know, the provincial film boards decide what is acceptable and what is not acceptable to a local community. For example, every porn that is at the video store in Montreal has to pass by the Quebec film board, if its accepted by them, you can then distribute it.
