The former CEO of clothing brand Abercrombie & Fitch, Mike Jeffries, is reportedly under investigation for sex crimes.
Jeffries and his partner Matthew Smith were involved in sex events, according to a BBC documentary.
According to the documentary, Jeffries and Smith organized events involving sex acts between 2009 and 2015.
Twelve men came forward in the documentary, some saying they were afraid their careers would end if they did not partake in the events.
Eight men said they were approached by a liaison who did not have a nose and covered the area with a snakeskin patch.
The middleman was later identified to be James Jacobson, who wore a snakeskin patch over his nose after a failed surgery.
Reporting from The Blaze:
However, Jacobson has denied doing anything wrong throughout the years he acted as the middleman between models and Jeffries. One alleged victim, David Bradberry, then 23, said that he was introduced to Jacobson by an agent who said he was the gatekeeper to the upper brass of Abercrombie & Fitch. The Daily Mail reported that Bradberry said, "Jim [Jacobson] made it clear to me that unless I let him perform oral sex on me, that I would not be meeting with Abercrombie & Fitch or Mike Jeffries." "I was paralyzed. It was like he was selling fame," Bradberry added. "And the price was compliance."
