Today's Blind Items - Not A Good List

The legal definition of sex trafficking is illegally transporting someone from one area to another for the purpose of sexual exploitation. In Hollywood, if a director has been drugging and having sex with someone for a week and then goes to a party and passes them off to someone else to use for a week, that doesn't necessarily meet the technical definition, but I still think these two A+ list mostly movie directors should be called out for it. They run in entirely different social circles, but they both do the same thing.

Is it sex trafficking if you are the owner of dozens and dozens of massage parlors in Los Angeles that bring in women from Asian countries and then rotate them through those massage parlors for two years in 12 hour shifts and then force a dozen of them to live in apartments watched over by a house mother? The A+ list mostly movie actor who is an Oscar winner/nominee doesn't actually handle any of the trafficking or the rotation of the employees or their eventual return (mostly) to their home country, but he must have an idea.

This other A+ list director, separate and apart from the first two in the blind, spent a good decade importing "assistants" from Asia and no identification was ever checked. No one is sure what happened to the hundred or so assistants he went through over the time period. He would get bored after a week or they didn't do things exactly the way he wanted and he would discard them. Now, suddenly he has religion and likes to pretend none of that happened.

I am not even including all the producers and directors who are making thousands of hours a year of child porn by filming it in countries where the age of consent is ridiculously low and doing so with the full consent of the film commission in the government. The only concession other than the bribes and the minimum spend by the cast and crew, is there must be an actual commercially made film in that country that is released. This country is one of the favorite hangouts of the disgraced A list actor/serial sexual predator and one of the directors in the first paragraph.
