The obscenity court case against John Staglioni (Evil Angel) has collapsed.

The judge dismissed all of the charges, on the grounds that the prosecutor's
case had been "woefully inadequate".

Great news !

Yeah I'm pleased with this. I didn't lose any sleep when Max Hardcore was convicted as having seen a few of his movies I thought he was a pretty vile mysogynist who brought a lot of needless flak to the industry and played fast and loose with the boundaries of what is and isn't acceptable adult material IMHO. But having seen and enjoyed tons of Stagliano's stuff I felt that the case against him might be a bit more suspect and mean-spirited and also potentially very damaging to the industry if it went against him. It seems that good sense has prevailed and I send my congrats to John and his team.

obscenity court case against John Staglioni.

Forgive me, but reading such bullshit I get aware the US justice system is corrupt as hell.
Remember, war criminals George W. Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Toni Blair are still free.
National interest. Fuck, kill someone these assholes!

I want all this dirty fucking anglo-saxon assholes shipped to the International Court for War crimes.
N O W !!!

sounds like good news.. and i'm personally reliefed that all charges against stagliano and evil angel are dismissed. anyway, i guess it's important to point out that stagliano and his company didn't win, but that the prosecution lost - due to some, let's say, procedural errors.

the consequence is that there won't be any appeal of a higher court, no possibility to set a precedent, and that means that the obscenity-issue in contemporary america remains unsolved again. i'm afraid it will be a matter of time until some major porn-producer will be accused of this spongy and anachronistic delict.

on the other hand i guess (and hope) directors and producers will push the limits of kinky porn in the next months and years, so that the acceptance of edgy porn gets substantiated by sales and therefor by the community's desire.

greetings,

sinspector.
