> One June 6, I wrote the following from a report on a Skeeter Kerkove shot: "Then she [Kelly Wells] goes over to Red Light- and they won't pay for shit," says Skeeter who got wind that Martin Del Toro was bad-mouthing him. Because of that, Skeeter won't let Wells raid the closet any more for Red Light shoots. When Haley Paige was on Skeeter's set the other day, the story was told that Del Toro married her for a green card, although Paige was under the impression it was for love."
The following is posted on MySpace: From TOL News: BUDAPEST, Hungary--She could never live behind bars, sang pop diva Sarolta Zalatnay but the 56-year-old singer-entrepreneur will soon start a three-year prison sentence for fraud. The story of the first Hungarian celebrity in recent memory sentenced to serve time in jail is also a cautionary tale of recent Hungarian capitalism. A Budapest city court has confirmed a December 2002 lower court verdict that found Zalatnay guilty of fraudulently borrowing 112 million forints (now $560,000) from private individuals, most of whom never got back even a forint of either principal or interest.
Zalatnay and several associates appealed to the Budapest court, but on 23 September Judge Akos Szekely not only confirmed the three-year term originally handed down, but made the sentence even stricter. The singer will have to spend at least 27 months in prison before she can be considered for release.
She moved into the infant commercial television business, but her private channel soon flopped, leaving many investors empty-handed. The failure of that venture led directly to Zalatnay's fraud conviction. The dramatic fare featured many graduates of the country's first private drama academy, one of whom,Csaba Marton (aka Martin del Toro), 25 years Zalatnay's junior, she later married.
Marton, who later fled to Los Angeles and reportedly started working as a director for American porn company Red Light District Video, was also charged with fraud. In 2002, however, he informed the court that a medical condition prevented him from traveling by air to stand trial. During the trial, prosecutors outlined how the women raised money for Zalatnay's television station. Through magazine and newspaper advertisements, A and M found private investors to loan money ranging from a few hundred thousand to several million forints, promising them monthly interest of 10 to 15 percent. A and M said it would put up collateral in the form of property and cars--which, it emerged, were either of low value or not even owned by Zalatnay's company.
Some investors handed over their life savings, lured by the promised interest and, as some of them mentioned in their court testimony, the singer's fame and the respect they had for her. Their possible qualms were also calmed by the fact that A and M's lawyer had signed the loan agreements--they were not aware that Godla had by then been disbarred. The judge in the 2002 trial described how several families broke up and one investor committed suicide when it became clear they would never get their money back.
The Luke Ford website threw it out there that Jessi Summers might be gone from the business.

>phatboy writes on www.xxxporntalk.com: Did anyone hear about Ray Guhn getting arrested? I heard it was on some racketeering bullshit and prostitution and the like.
> DanG writes: Yes, although I've no idea what the charges are...perhaps the racketeering/prostitution angle could be something to do with the fact he uses members of the site as male talent in his content? Some young turk in the DA's office probably thinks he can make some tenuous connection between the fact that members of the site get to interact with the girls (by splooging on them), but have to pay for it (via purchasing a membership to COHF.com) as opposed to an American Bukkake shoot where Jeff pays the guys to perform. Whether a case can be proven is neither here nor there right now...it just means that COHF are going to be involved in a lot of costly and time/energy sapping legal wrangling for the forseeable future. A conviction may not be the goal here, rather the authorities are just looking to fuck with him and his business/cashflow until he can keep doing business.
Of course, having said that, it could be something entirely unrelated to COHF.com, but when you look at the two guys fingered by the law on this one, I'd tend to doubt it.
What will be interesting to see is how the industry reacts...remember, the general industry consensus seems to be that Rob Black and Jeff Steward deserve everything they get because they make 'extreme' porn, so it's okay to just say 'fuck 'em, they we're asking for it' and turn your back on them. Ray Guhn, as far as I can see, doesn't make particularly 'extreme' porn outside of the fact it's group sex/bukkake...will the industry be rallying around him, or will he be getting the sanctimonious cold shoulder?
