There are a few "hobbyists" that have booked with Derek directly under the guise of "private movie". Any Joe can call him up and book a girl for a "shoot". They don't check references or credibility.

Ignorance isn't immunity from culpability. Derek and LA Direct can still be prosecuted for pimping. At minimum he can be charged with conspiracy.

The law in California in regards to shooting porn is very clear. A third party pays two individuals to have sex in order to create a commercial product of such shoot. Without having an end commercial product, the act is deemed as prostitution.



What a bullshit statement. Of course LA direct screens companies/producers that they dont know. Are you serious? Do you think he would send girls out into the wild like that? Now you are just making things up.
