Philadelphia [from the Philadelphia Daily News]- ABOUT A ZILLION porn films are made every week in America, but the feds have decided to go after John Stagliano (creator of the Las Vegas hit "Fashionistas") and his Evil Angel empire.
A grand jury has socked Stagliano with eight obscenity violations for selling adult videos online and via unmarked packing envelopes shipped by the U.S. Postal Service. None of the films contain children. This is not a child-porn case.
Since the feds have had minimal luck over the years going after the makers of standard smut, this time they're taking a kinkier approach, targeting Stagliano for films aimed at fans of fluid fetishes.
Even though the film titles contain no dirty words, we won't name them, as this is a family newspaper. After all, some of you read Tattle while you're having breakfast.
And some of you are lactose intolerant.
"I don't sell obscenity according to how the law is defined, and I am sure in the end there will be a positive resolution to this," Stagliano told AVN.com.
If Stagliano loses, however, he could go to jail for a long time and be fined millions.
And fetish fans will have to get their fix from any one of a zillion other sources.
