Extreme Associates Busted by Federal Agents
Approximately 25 to 30 Federal Agents and Postal Inspectors arrived with a 10 page warrant. The warrant stated that the bust was due to a complaint in Pittsburgh, PA. though it is not known whether the material was shipped over state lines. Of particular note is the title, Forced Entry, which reached notoriety in recent years due to media coverage of its rape theme.
One article was on this site: http://www.avn.com/articles/12203.html
And the second article appeared on this site: http://www.lukeford.com/ This is a hardcore site, beware.
Computers, records and products were confiscated. The officers stated that the raid stems from a federal complaint lodged in the State of Kentucky and targets three Extreme titles. (Although I believe the complaint came from Pittsburgh)
Extreme Associates has bounced at least 15 checks recently.
From a reliable source, it was told to me that Shane Douglas tried to separate the companies of XPW from Extreme Associates. However, management at XPW still continued on occasion to pay talent out the EA accounts.
Before being released from XPW, G Q Money had been fired from EA for "unknown reasons". It is rumored that his firing may have something to do with one of the videos seized by authorities. He was the creator and producer of the library "C*cksmokers".
They recently fired Johnny Webb and Veronica Caine, who were said to be a couple. Webb worked behind the scenes at EA.
If anyone out there thinks that this is totally separate from XPW, it's not. XPW continued to pay talents and workers out of the Extreme Associates account, and actually used that name when booking bands, certain items relating to their shows, etc.. Also in the past all the lodging and transportation was done originally under the EA name and accounts.
I wonder how this will impact the XPW's April 19th show in Pittsburgh and their Best of XPW PPV scheduled for June 5th on Direct TV?
We were hoping in a way this was just an online rib towards haters of XPW, but this unfortunately looks like it's legit.
Kinda makes you think when the #1 rapper is white and the #1 golfer is black
