Adult-film maker pleads no contest
BY MELISSA NELSON Associated Press Writer
PANAMA CITY, Fla. — "Girls Gone Wild" founder Joe Francis pleaded no contest to child abuse and prostitution charges Wednesday under an agreement allowing him to go free after nearly a year in jail.
Francis, 34, returned to Florida after posting a $1.5 million bond this week in Nevada, where he is awaiting trial for tax fraud. The hearing in Bay County state court resolved his 2003 criminal case involving the filming of underaged girls during spring break on Panama City Beach.
"I have never committed any crime. I pleaded guilty just to get out of jail," a defiant Francis said after the Bay County state court hearing.
Francis makes an estimated $29 million a year on videos of young women in sexually provocative situations.
He pleaded no contest to one count of felony child abuse and two counts of misdemeanor prostitution.
Judge Deede Costello sentenced Francis to 339 days on Wednesday, the time he has already served in Florida and Nevada. Costello also ordered Francis to pay more than
$60,000 in fines, court costs and restitution to the county.
Francis also agreed not to conduct any filming between Escambia and Jackson Counties in Florida for the next three years.
Miami defense attorney Roy Black brokered the plea agreement.
Francis believed women his company filmed in 2003 were over 18 because they signed agreements stating they were of legal age, Black said.
"But it makes no difference under Florida law, they still committed a crime," Black said.
10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
