Gay Porn King Sues Black LGBT Bloggers for Exposing Truth

Yes, the headline says it all.

A couple of weeks ago I was notified by mail that Flavaworks owner Phillip Bleicher was suing mwah for libel to the tune of $250,000.  Good luck.  I have a hard time getting $2.50 together much less $250,000 and you can quote me on it.

About Phillip Bleicher and Flavaworks

Flavaworks operates the porn sites, Cocoboyz, Thugboy and PapiCock, and the magazines Flavamen and FlavaLife that feature young Black and Latino men.

The Chicago Department of Public Health recently released a report on the latest rate of syphilis and HIV infections in that city in its Winter 2006 report.

In their findings, they detailed a follow-up to an investigation they conducted into the unsafe sexual practices conducted by FlavaWorks, where young gay Black and Latin men engage in sexual acts for the enjoyment of viewers who pay a membership fee to watch.

As a result of the CDPH investigation last year, Flavaworks closed their operation in Chicago and relocated to Miami, Florida. The business’s owner, Phillip Bleicher, had also been charged by Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan with operating a fraudulent charity that bilked schools nationwide out of millions of dollars but later dropped the charges.

In a past post, a colleague Bernie Tarver, who is also being sued, detailed how The Chicago Free Press reported that Department of Health officials in Chicago slapped a cease and desist order on the owners of FlavaWorks.com because business has knowingly allowed the spread of HIV and other sexually-transmitted diseases.

Christopher Brown, assistant commissioner for HIV/AIDS/STD programs at CDPH, said health officials acted after uncovering “credible” evidence that models at FlavaWorks.com, which also operated CocoBoyz Dorm Room online, were HIV-positive, were engaging in unsafe sex practices and were spreading HIV, syphilis and gonorrhea through contact with individuals outside the business.

Brown said CDPH’s initial involvement came in late December after HIV service providers called CDPH to express “concerns that some of their clients could be seen on the website engaging in unsafe sex.”

“We also became aware of cases of HIV linked to some of the models,” Brown said.
While the models are Black and Latino, the owner of the company, Phillip Bleicher, is White.

Brown said the business owner had been “less than cooperative” with city officials’ efforts to stop the spread of HIV and other diseases and get CocoBoyz models in for counseling, treatment and testing.

“Our main concern was the dorm,” Brown said. “Our goal is to immediately look at the models, screen them and address their needs.”

“We had evidence and reports from what I would consider credible sources that there was HIV and STDs among the models at CocoBoyz dorm room, and unsafe sex could be viewed right there on the website,” Brown said.

Equally distressing are reports centering around the conditions under which the young men worked. Most of them are reportedly at-risk youths, runaways, homeless and easily manipulated.

There are also allegations that the business used unusual labor contracts with its models, which, according to one source, “at least bordered on illegal servitude.” The 30-day contracts allegedly required the models to perform a certain number of sexual acts in exchange for a stipend. But, when the models tried to collect the stipends, they were told they were being charged for such things as food and bed linens, leaving them, in some cases, in debt rather than collecting money. They were then pressured to sign new contracts.

After fleeing to Miami, Bleicher became the subject of a NBC 6 investigation in May that revealed he was operating an adult business in the middle of a Miami residential neighborhood.  NBC 6 discovered they were operating a hardcore live internet sex business with cameras installed in rooms where customers around the world can pay to watch the men who live there have sex with each other.

"It's the city's position that the activity that is happening at that location should not be happening," said Miami Assistant City Attorney Victoria Mendez. "It's a single-family residence and there are children in the vicinity, and the city feels that this should be stopped immediately."

Flavaworks says they promote safe sex "100 percent" and what they're doing is legal.

But the attorney for Flavaworks said the business is legal.

"I assure you that all of the allegations take place in a private area, behind a locked door, in a house that goes over out of cyberspace on the Internet," attorney James Benjamin said. "No child near there or anywhere outside the house has any idea what happens inside, just like nobody knows what happens in your house, sir."

However, Miami disagrees and has cited them for five code violations including failing to have a license to operate a rooming house, a business or an adult business in a residential neighborhood. The Miami Code Enforcement Department board met on June 27 to decide whether live sex shows broadcast on the Internet from inside the house violates the law.  They continued the hearing until July 25 during which the website is still up and running.

About the Lawsuit

Because several blogers felt compelled enough to blog about what was happening in Chicago and Miami, they have become the target of a lawsuit, yours truly included.  As I said in the beginning  I was given until today to respond to a lawsuit to the tune of $250,000 for libel.

Prior to the lawsuit, the powers at be over at Flavaworks have begun to try and legally make me remove the information from my website and they actually had Bernie’s site shut down for a hot minute.  They invaded our websites by posting comments that we supportive of their business.  However, I busted that when I noted that the posts were all coming from one computer, in other words, the same person who was changing their name to appear as if they were someone else.

With reference to me, they tried unsuccessfully to point out that I was a writer for Flavaworks’ magazine of which I have never ever denied.  Please quote me:

“At one time Flavaworks did contact me to publish my op-eds.  So what?  I don't understand what that has to do with the Chicago Department of Public Health's report and their other questionable activities.  Money doesn’t equal silence.  I don’t have one issue with Flavaworks publishing my op-ed’s.  In a sea of photos of half naked and naked men, at least for the five or so months they published my articles, their readers got some knowledge to go with that hand job.  As far as I'm concerend, if the KKK had a national magazine and wanted to publish my articles they could as long as they paid me and didn't edit it anyway.  Like I said, so what.”

I know what libel is and I know what libel isn’t and nothing that was written was libel. We simply stated and facts, which I am happy to do again.

Fact: Bleicher is under investigation for operating an adult business in the middle of a Miami residential neighborhood.

Fact: As a result of the CDPH investigation last year, Flavaworks closed their operation in Chicago and relocated to Miami, Florida.

Fact: Phillip Bleicher had also been charged by Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan with operating a fraudulent charity that bilked schools nationwide out of millions of dollars

Libel this ain’t, but the truth it is.

It’s also true that Black gay men are still dying from HIV/AIDS and I myself have watched videos on Flavaworks’ various websites that showed unsafe sex practices. 

Flavaworks’ own vice-president recently dropped dead of pneumonia and as sad as that is, it makes you wonder why a relatively healthy Black gay man in the prime of his life just drops dead of pneumonia.

Bleicher should have left well enough alone.  Bloggers aren’t the reason that the Chicago Department of Public Health and NBC 6 investigated him, his business practices are.  We just merely reported it.  Instead of wasting time trying to shut our blogs down and get outrageous sums of money out of us, he should be focusing on his own ass and the pending charges against him and leave us he hell alone.

It’s bad enough that Bleicher is a white man profiting on the sex of young Black and Latino men.  That alone makes my blood boil.  And to think that even any of the allegations of their work conditions further pisses me off. 

If you like porn that’s your business.  I’ve got no issues with that.  But there is a reason why all of these allegations and investigations are being launched against Flavaworks…something just ain’t right and sooner or later the truth will come out.  Don’t hate on me for reporting it.

I have often taken issue with Jasmyne Cannick's tone, which is sometimes more self-indulgent than I would like, and rarely as educative as I would hope. However, if someone works in a business that exploits young, homeless Black and Latino boys, and then passes away, I think it is understandable one might want to say such a person "dropped dead" or "croaked" or "kicked the bucket." As I write this though,I don't feel any better having said it. I don't think I have brought any more peace in the world, or helped these vulnerable young men. I have been inspired by this case, and a recent video I saw on LGBT youth, to volunteer some time and/or money. I would love if Jasmyne could end her columns with some links to places we might contact to do more to help...

[Mike Zillion]

It's certainly neither shameful nor unusual for the operator of a company in the adult entertainment industry to be under investigation. It goes with the territory. The revolution will be won by draining the coffers of the establishment.

[The Truth]

This article intimates that Devin Wiley died of HIV/AIDS since he died of pneumonia. THE TRUTH, is that Devin Wiley died of pneumonia as a result of SICKLE CELL ANEMIA! It is no wonder that you bloggers are being sued. Get your facts straight and tell the TRUTH!

Jasmyne I agree with you 100%. The man did just drop dead from a disease that you hardly see healthy young men die from now days. I didn't read anywhere that you said the man died from aids. You just stated how questionable the conditions surrounding his death were. I know a couple of guys who have gone and done work for this company and if you ask me it is modern day slavery. A lot of them turn to this business because they don't have anything else and get trapped. It's a very sad situation. They are making crumbs doing god knows what for the world to see while this man is getting rich. I think it should be shut down.

"It’s bad enough that Bleicher is a white man profiting on the sex of young Black and Latino men. That alone makes my blood boil. And to think that even any of the allegations of their work conditions further pisses me off." Why, oh why does this matter? Would it be better if he was a black man or Latino man running this business? I certainly hope that your answer is no. Otherwise, this is just a case of racism at its worst. Bleicher definitely is not a good man, and I am not supporting him at all, so don't get me wrong. I just wanted to take your comment to task. Keep up the reporting!

[blac.sapphic]

"Yes, it is unfortunate that Flavaworks vice-president Dekenric Wiley died quit suddenly over the past weekend..."
...is what you could AND SHOULD have said the first time since you felt so compelled to say anything about him at all.

If you're so uber concerned about the plight of the Black man wrongfully and knowingly exposed to HIV / AIDS and various STD's (albeit consenting) only for the fattening of the pockets of a white man, you, as visible as you are becoming, could have taken this in another direction completely.

Again Jasmyne, it is not what you say but how you say it and it appears that you continue to miss the mark.
Facilitating discourse with regard to the dealings at Flavaworks is one thing but Wiley and the circumstances surrounding his untimely death are indeed all together another and we should have been spared a coating of your self-righteous bullshit.
Had you been able to get your head out of your own ass long enough to even consider an opinion on the matter (other than your own), you might have been able to see that most didn't take issue with your stance against Flavaworks; your lack of regard, RESPECT, care and concern for others is what is being questioned. I’ll quote myself, "Some readers, namely myself, would just like to call to mind your perceived lack of ...I don’t know continuity, ethics, conscience, respect and the like and ask that you use your ‘position’ as ‘mouthpiece’, whether welcome or unwelcome / self appointed or not, to take better care of the ways in which you do and are looked at to speak to and for a larger community."

"And as for Bleicher and his crew, call me fat, call me Black, call me a nigger, call me a bitch, hell, call me a fat Black nigger bitch for all I care. Leave postings on my website about how uneducated I am and how I don't know anything. That's fine. All it does for me is prove my point and what show that what we write must be pretty powerful if you would invest so much time into filling up my comment section with such rhetoric."
...and is that the best rhetoric you could come up with to close another unnecessary and self indulgent posting? I mean ...does it make you feel good about yourself?
When are you going to stop throwing yourself pseudo pity parties because someone calls you what THEY see fit? ...the same thing you do to others when so inclined.
That ‘sticks and stones’ façade you parade behind is lame, not to mention as clear as glass; your self esteem issues manifest themselves in the way you continually use the misfortune of others to propel your fantasy celebrity via this blog.
I think your confusing powerful, meaningful and truth laden writing with the sensationalist jargon you flippantly throw around to further justify the garbage you spew ...and attempt to prove under the guise of pertinent news.

Mentioning Wiley ...and his death served no purpose other than to bump up your ‘click count’ and unfortunately, I’m sure you succeeded.

Get a grip ...a firm one and please come back to the center you were once known and applauded for.

At present, you disgust me; your sanctimonious excuses for the inexcusable behavior you exhibit is not at all representative of the community at large I’m sure ....but again "I am left with the impression that you purport to represent no one but yourself ...that’s nice."
You just don’t speak ill of the dead.

[keisha]

ooh here come the haters. flavaworks must have their folks blogging instead of fucking for the next couple of hours.

>>>>Wanda Keirion
do u know jasmyne. i do. can you prove that she didn't go to college? i can prove otherwise. Sounds like libel to me.

[Charles]

Mr. Bliecher is not exploiting anything or anyone. The compliants that the performers had came after they were released and cashed their checks. He has a good thing going and wants to protect it in order to line his pockets. He is no different than other men in business in America. The comparison to slavery is childish and reaps of reverse racism.

Shall we talk about how the hip hop community has shackled millions of black men. Like the slaves on the plantation too many black men today feel that this is their destiny. Now that is slavery: mental and physical.

The question arises what brought them to porn, why didn't the black community save them from this horrid life: it was a choice that they made as adults.

He should be allowed to continue filming in the private residence in Florida. The lawmakers are making a moral stand that has no bearing on the laws. It is apparent in the video footage that they are biased against the acts and do not have a law to back them.

[sexyboi]

he did drop dead. in the prime if his life, he dropped dead. don't sugar coat that shit jas, that's exactly what happened. Who dies from pnuemonia in 2007? eaxactly. those that can't deal with the truth and need more sensitivity should visit other websites. i know that you arent trying to be cruel about the death but are making a point. as one who knew of dekenric, he seemed to be pretty young and healthy to one day just die and like u i wonder what the hell is really going on. any chance of an autopsy.

[caleb rexter]

Jasmyne, as a longtime reader of your site, and as an attorney, I'd caution you to re-think your posts and comments, especially given the comments made about the Flavaworks employee. No credible news source said this young man was HIV positive or had AIDS; even if he were, he could have could have caught this many years before Flavaworks. And, even if AIDS-related complications were his cause of death, you only aggravate your legal situation by mentioning this.

Some of your readers may say, "you tell them!" and you may say, "I have a hard time getting $2.50 together much less $250,000 " You're forgetting the main point: YOU STILL WILL HAVE TO HIRE AN ATTORNEY AND SPEND TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIGHT THE SUIT.

This will be very expensive, time consuming, telephone and financial records will be subpoeaned, and your employers will probably be involved, too. Since you work for the state, conceivably, the State of California could also be sued, especially if it can be shown that you blog from work or while using a state-issued computer. Meanwhile, you will HAVE TO HIRE an attorney and PAY A RETAINER to defend yourself. If you job, coworkers or employer is involved, they will also have to hire legal counsel. No one will be pleased.

The last thing you should so is blog about this. Most people involved in legal matters say "No comment." Good luck.

[taylor Siluwé]

Jasmyne, Jasmyne ...

I almost don't know what to say. I can understand how you would be angry about being sued for, what I believe, you truly feel is the truth.

But 'dropped dead'?!!!! You know, no matter how angry you are (rightfully or wrongly), that's just plain ol' fucked up.

I've always admired and supported you even when I strongly disagreed. You are still great at what you do, and I'm sure one day soon I'll stand and applaud again for some great thing you're doing.

But today, while Devin's body is barely cold and his family is still distraught, all I can say is SHAME ON YOU!

You're better than that. You know it. Your loyal fan base knows it. And I hope they're as appalled at this moment as I am.

Your stock just plummeted -- sadly.

[Dre]

Jasmyne, I commend you for bringing this issue to the forefront. If was not for the voices of you and others bloggers, many people would not have been aware of the issues surrounding FlavaWorks. Black gay issues don't make the news and without your blog I would have never known about this story.

[PDQ]

Why do I get the feeling the above comments blasting you for waiting two weeks to report this are from the same people/person who defended Bleicher the first time you wrote about him?

People - she was notified of this two weeks ago. How long should she have waited in your esteemed opinion before she wrote about it?

Go get him Jasmyne!!! Continue to expose him for what he is and for what he is doing to others in the pursuit of personal profit.

[Frank Leon Roberts]

These comments from the poster "blac.sapphic" are excellent. Sister, you have articulated my sentiment perfectly:

Blac.Sapphic wrote:
Where is your respect for the deceased and how would you feel if someone referred to you upon your passing as ‘Jasmyne Cannick dropped dead’. I don’t know, maybe you wouldn’t mind I just couldn’t settle myself to speak of anyone in that manner.

[Frank Leon Roberts]

Jasymne I am so shocked by you right now. It was one thing for Keith to report on this story, but for you to throw in the line that "the VP dropped dead of pneumonia" is one of the most insensitive comments I have ever witnessed from you.

Devin has not been dead for a week---this could not have waited? The friends and family of Devin Wiley (especially his mother) are in a time of deep mourning & this is not the time for them to have to deal with a backlash against the company he worked for. These debates could have waited. I am not convinced that another discussion over the race of Flavawork's CEO needed to take place right NOW, less than five days after Devin died. There was no new information that emerged that made it necessary for us to bring this back up again. Regardless of our personal opinions, the fact remains that Devin Wiley did in fact enjoy & willfully chose to work for Flavaworks.

Devin Wiley died on Saturday. His life & death should not be overshadowed by discussions over the race of the man he worked with. Whats next, are we going to crash Devin's memorial service with picket signs? I understand the impulse here, however the timing is woefully inappropriate.

[Waddie Grant]

Wow. This guy has wasted his time and money trying to silence bloggers??? It's no wonder that with his bad business practices, he's in so much hot water.

JC - Keep stating facts because we love visiting your website because of it.

[blac.sapphic]

No one can fault or 'hate on' you for being the sensationalist journalist that you are.

While I must admit have never read anything of yours outside of this blog, I can't say that I care to any longer as I'm more often than not left with an awful taste in my mouth; not that one reader matters to you I'm sure, but there are several others that I've come across that share my same sentiment.
Initially, I read your blog and a few others to catch glimpses of what is missing in mainstream media; tidbits of what matters to me as a Black queer woman. You may think you talk about issues others won’t and in some respects you might be right. You might be, however; as of late 'fact', opinion and simple reporting / retelling have become an insulting and embarrassing example of how not to be heard because your own voice gets in the way and I’d hate to see others follow the same pattern. You’re a shining example of what Black lgbt / sgl and straight women can do but I fear you’re missing the mark.

Ever heard 'it's not what you say but how you say it'?
You use your opinion to draw attention to yourself and you no longer say things of particular importance. Sure, you relay information but when the time comes to put your own stamp on it, you say things to shock people, seize the opportunity and advance your name in the process. I've shared many of your same ideas and I'm sure I will in the future; there is nothing wrong with being an opportunist but you're often disrespectful, dismissive, hypocritical, condescending and all around tactless which in my opinion is screamingly indicative of your lack of inherent talent. It seems as though lately you rely more on jolting people with what you say than you do putting the truth out there and letting it speak for itself. Nothing speaks louder than the truth Jasmyne and you’ve been shouting over it.

You do much for the community I'm sure but what do you at your core advocate for? Is it the right of all, particularly lgbtq / sgl, minorities and women, to enjoy their lives as they see fit? Is it the right to not be judged by others ...live your life without the imposition of someone else’s moral standards and the like? Forgive me for assuming, but if it is, you've done quite a bit more than fall short yourself.
One example being; upon reading your blog about the women at pride wearing leashes and collars I was seething to say the least; how dare you look down your nose at a consenting adult couple for their self and sexual expression. Granted, I would never put a collar on myself or anyone else but who are you to pass judgment?
You can’t advocate for some things and not others or when it is convenient for you.

I honestly wish you well in your case with Flavaworks but this, this is appalling:

"Flavaworks’ own vice-president recently dropped dead of pneumonia and as sad as that is, it makes you wonder why a relatively healthy Black gay man in the prime of his life just drops dead of pneumonia."

What is sad is the way in which you dismiss another human being.
How do you reconcile that within yourself?
Unless you were made privy to his medical history, you can’t assume to know whether or not someone is relatively healthy; not to imply anything with regard to Devin Wiley’s status as I know nothing of the man, but you don’t wear HIV in the same manner you do a shirt ...and even if he was, why does something like that even need to be said? What does it have to do with anything? It seems as if you don’t know when to leave well enough alone. Where is your respect for the deceased and how would you feel if someone referred to you upon your passing as ‘Jasmyne Cannick dropped dead’. I don’t know, maybe you wouldn’t mind I just couldn’t settle myself to speak of anyone in that manner.

I am left with the impression that you purport to represent no one but yourself ...that’s nice. Some readers, namely myself, would just like to call to mind your perceived lack of ...I don’t know continuity, ethics, conscience, respect and the like and ask that you use your ‘position’ as ‘mouthpiece’, whether welcome or unwelcome / self appointed or not, to take better care of the ways in which you do and are looked at to speak to and for a larger community.

[Mourner]

You have either no conscience or no human decency, to use the death of a wonderful man ,brother, son and friend as some sort catalyst to once again attack a company that is currently mourning the loss of their v.p.(SHAMELESS) So your getting sued big fucking deal(welcome to America) Your a "journalist" it comes with the territory suck it up and move on. Why if your major concern is the exploitation of black youths do you focus on one company are there no other companies to attack? Honestly, if you Google black porn the first result page would give access to multiple companies in the same genre. Dekenric (Devin) Wiley's death was unfortunate as well as sudden and is not grounds for accusations and assumptions. His friends and family are using this time to reflect on his life and accomplishments. So we ask that you get your SOAPBOX OFF HIS GRAVE and let us mourn, take this time to go after the thousands of other companies working right now.

[douglass]

Got you wondering what's really going on over there at flavaworks. But it always a white man pulling strings and calling shots so I'm not surprised if the illuminati has this operation going on so they can help spread HIV and Aids in the black community.
