Video Maker of 2 Girls 1 Cup Jailed for Indecency
Ira Isaacs made one of the most disgusting viral videos of all time. He filmed two lesbians enjoying a cup of anal fluids. The reaction videos of people watching this gross-fest also generated its own internet meme, making this video even more infamous. The FBI tracked Ira Isaacs down and now he’s going to jail for four years.
From Viralize here:
“Shock Artist” Ira Isaacs has been sentenced to 4 years in federal prison for producing work deemed to be too obscene.
While you may not know who Ira Isaacs is, those familiar with the Internet may have heard about or seen the famous ’2 Girls, 1 Cup’ video that led to tons of reaction videos on YouTube of viewers being grossed out. It turns out that the show’s filmmaker will now have to serve 4 years in a federal prison after grossing out the jury. He was slapped with 5 counts of producing and distributing obscenity, years after courts tried to jail him for other reasons such as sexually exploiting women in his videos (which turned out to be false).
According to the FBI:
Evidence presented at trial established that beginning in or about 1999 and continuing until at least 2011, Isaacs, doing business under the name LA. Media, operated numerous websites, through which he advertised and sold obscene videos that he acquired from other people. The obscene videos included a video approximately two hours in length of a female engaging in sex acts involving human bodily waste and a video one hour and 37 minutes in length of a female engaged in sex acts with animals. The evidence presented at trial also established that in approximately 2004, Isaacs began operating under the name Stolen Car Films and made obscene videos in which he instructed women to engage in sexual activity involving human bodily waste.
Isaacs argued that he is an artist, but the jury didn’t care to hear it and looked for any excuse to throw him in jail.
I’ve never seen the video and certainly don’t want to. But Isaacs is going to jail for selling products that people paid him for. These products contained adult “actors” performing of their own free will. Like any other product someone finds offensive, if you don’t like it, you should turn it off. I do understand that obscenity is defined by the community- you recognize it when you see it. So while he may have been acting within legal boundaries, the community thought he should be jailed.
And meanwhile, Goatse Man and Tubgirl are still roaming the public. Don’t google that.
