Now we're in our thirties, 26 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,759 Speaker 3: things are usually a bit more sedate, except for when 27 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 3: I ask Sophie to help me with my investigations. 28 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: I get a private message like, please help me.

It's morning in London and I've 87 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 3: just woken up to four messages from Luis Gomes. 88 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: He tells Jojo Harri. 89 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: My fake lamb model alias, that he's going to Vegas 90 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 3: the next day for two weeks of shoots and that she. 91 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 2: Can join too. 92 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 3: Okay, so I am sending Luis a message now to 93 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 3: try and arrange a meeting. So I've said, hey, I'm 94 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 3: really interested and can be in Vegas next week. It 95 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 3: feels so much as hinging on his reply to this message, 96 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 3: part of me is worried that he might get spooped. 97 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 2: Cent Ah. Just a few hours later, I like your image. 98 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 6: Let me know if you are interested. 99 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 2: He has said, Okay, let's do it. He tells me 100 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 2: his rates for a. 101 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 6: Shoots two thousand, eight hundred and eighty. This includes the 102 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 6: production of photoshoot with forty edited photos three thousand, nine 103 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 6: hundred and eighty. This one includes also a behind the 104 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 6: sceneslip and for produced clips. 105 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 3: I'm not clear on what either of these options includes, 106 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 3: but either way, these prices seem really high. I tell 107 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 3: him it's too much money. Sure enough, Louise has a solution. 108 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 6: Depending if we also do full only fans content, I 109 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 6: can do a discount, so you pay me only one 110 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 6: two hundred and fifteen. 111 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 3: I tell Louise I don't do only fans and that 112 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 3: I can't afford those rates. He drops his price again, 113 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 3: this time to six hundred and fifty dollars, and then weirdly, 114 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 3: he offers me a discounted hotel room. 115 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 6: I have two apartments. I get you one only one 116 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 6: hundred dollars one for yourself. 117 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 2: This is bizarre. 118 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 3: Why does he have two hotel rooms and why is 119 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 3: he offering one to Jojo. We don't want to pay 120 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 3: Luise any money for a shoot, and I'm obviously not 121 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 3: staying in his hotel room, so I ignore the offer. 122 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 3: But at least I now know where he's staying, the 123 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 3: Grand View Hotel, Las Vegas, so that's where my producer 124 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 3: Eleanor and I are headed. 125 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's amazing. That is amazing. I can't believe. 126 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 7: Fuck back. 127 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 8: Okay, we've got to find out when he can meet, 128 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 8: but it's on. 129 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 2: We did it, well done. Were done to Vegas. 130 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 3: Good morning, It's six thirty am in Las Vegas, Nevada. 131 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 2: How are you feeling, Yeah, it's all right. 132 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 3: By the time we can get out to Vegas, Luisa's 133 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 3: trip is nearly over, So even though we only arrived yesterday, 134 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 3: we have less than twelve hours before we have to 135 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 3: be back at the airport for our flight home, and 136 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 3: in that time we need to find Luise and confront 137 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 3: him about everything we know. We wrote to Luis about 138 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 3: a month ago, asking if he would do an interview 139 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 3: with us and outlining the allegations that we're going to 140 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 3: be making in the podcast, and we said that, you know, 141 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 3: we wanted to give him a fair opportunity to respond 142 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 3: to those accusations. We know he's read it from what 143 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 3: we can tell from an email tracker that we've got 144 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,719 Speaker 3: multiple times. Actually he's never come back to us, so 145 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 3: this is that last ditch attempt to hold them accountable. 146 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 3: I guess the fear is that the weight of your 147 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 3: investigation and all of the people that you've spoken to, 148 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 3: rests on it, and I just want to get it right. 149 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 3: The sun is starting to rise, dusky pink over the 150 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 3: mountains lining the horizon. We've headed south of the city, 151 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 3: out towards scrublands on the edge of the desert. 152 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 2: It's unlike anywhere I've ever been before. 153 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 3: But right now I'm having a typical American experience. I'm 154 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 3: at a diner. 155 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm going to just cook that there. 156 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 3: Elena and I are meeting the security guards will be 157 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 3: accompanying us on our mission. There are three of them, 158 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 3: one woman and two men. I can't tell you their 159 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 3: names to protect their identities. But they're all ex cops. 160 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 3: Plus this is Vegas, so you know they've seen some shit. 161 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 9: So I've been and here it was for thirty years, 162 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 9: so I've worked. 163 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,199 Speaker 10: I've know this town pretty well. 164 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 3: The ex cops look like a group of middle aged 165 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 3: mates who've nipped out for an early breakfast. The two 166 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 3: guys in hoodies and jeans could easily be mistaken for tourists, 167 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 3: but the female agent it's more glamorous than you'd expect 168 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 3: for an next cop with bleach blonde hair. The difference 169 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 3: is these guys are all armed and take their mission 170 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 3: very seriously. I brief them about Luis over coffee, then 171 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 3: they get straight to work. 172 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 11: I will call sexual assault detail here last weeks and. 173 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 12: Run this by them and consue they have anything in. 174 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 13: Reference with details like this going to happen. 175 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 3: So, like I said in the metime, when we arrived 176 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 3: to scope out Luisa's hotel, we discover our first big problem. Literally, 177 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 3: I mean, it's just so much bigger than either of 178 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 3: us anticipated, and I cannot see how three security guards 179 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 3: are going to mark that whole area. The hotel spreads 180 00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 3: across eight buildings, and some of the buildings have twenty 181 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 3: one floors. It has more than two thousand rooms. It's 182 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 3: fucking enormous, and everyone kept saying that it was big, 183 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 3: and I'd looked at it online, but I thought it 184 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 3: would all be contained and there would be sort of 185 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,599 Speaker 3: one or a few funnels. 186 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 2: In and out. But it's not like that at all. 187 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 3: There is one main entrance and exit where if someone 188 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 3: was marking that, we would see him driving in or out. 189 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,079 Speaker 2: But there's so much space to. 190 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 3: Cover and by the time he's in a car, if 191 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 3: he's driving out, that's no good to us what. 192 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 5: We're going to do. 193 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 14: Then. 194 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 3: I'm an eternal optimist, but looking up at this complex, 195 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 3: I'm thinking we might be fucked. Being here is feeling really, 196 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 3: really overwhelming. I'm sort of looking around that we're just 197 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 3: surrounded by buildings and so many people constantly coming and going. 198 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 3: Definitely feels like finding him is going to be a 199 00:11:54,040 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 3: bit of a needle in a haystack. From Luise telling 200 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 3: Jojo that he was staying at this resort, the only 201 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 3: other intelligence we've been able to gather is from his 202 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 3: Instagram stories. His post suggests that he's been shooting with 203 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 3: two models all over Vegas. Our biggest clue is a 204 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 3: video they posted yesterday showing them driving out to the 205 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 3: canyons in a distinctive white jeep. We do endless laps 206 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 3: of the hotel car parks, hoping to spot the jeep, 207 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 3: but no luck. By ten am, three hours later, there's 208 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 3: still no sign of the car, the models, or Luise. 209 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 3: The waiting is so intense, but suddenly we get a clue. 210 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 2: He's just posted an Instagram story. 211 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 3: I shoot him a message from Drojo's account, telling him 212 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 3: I'm in Vegas and asking to me to wait and 213 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 3: hope that he replies to my message. The seconds tick 214 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 3: by as I wait for him to respond, waiting to 215 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 3: see if he replies. This message is actual in the 216 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 3: most tense part, because it's just like, if there's any 217 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,079 Speaker 3: way of pinning him down to a specific location, that's 218 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 3: going to make our jobs so much easier. So I'm 219 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,079 Speaker 3: just kind of like checking the phone every thirty seconds 220 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 3: to see if he's replied. 221 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 2: Oh, he's just like my message. He's just like my message. 222 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 2: I think he's going to reply. He's just replied. Who's 223 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 2: replied saying yes we can shoot? Oh my god, Okay, 224 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 2: so he's still here. 225 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 6: Here. 226 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 2: He's just replied, saying yes, we can shoot.

We're 307 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 3: dripping with sweat. This blistering Nevada heat is really not 308 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 3: being kind to adrenaline fuel podcasters from London, and we 309 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 3: know that Luis Gomes is going to be shooting in 310 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 3: and around Vegas soon, very soon. It feels like the 311 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 3: pressure is really on now because it feels like we've 312 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 3: got a very short window. It's now two o'clock nearly, 313 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 3: so if it gets to like half three four and 314 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 3: we've not seen him, I think we have to assume 315 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 3: that we've missed him leaving From an Instagram story, it 316 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 3: looks like Luis might have been traveling in a white jeep. 317 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,919 Speaker 3: We think our best shot to find him is to 318 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 3: stake out the car park and hope he drives to 319 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 3: the shoot. So now all we can do is wait. 320 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 3: I feel like I'm in an extremely low budget spy movie, 321 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 3: attempting to look inconspicuous while we try to man as 322 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 3: many of the hotel exits as we can. Just then, 323 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 3: a white jeep slides past one of the entrances, and 324 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 3: just as quickly it slides out of. 325 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 4: You guys. 326 00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 3: Gets in the car. 327 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:02,360 Speaker 2: Ellie, that was them. 328 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 5: There's some tea.

Now you chase the jeep into 340 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 3: the desert, getting closer. 341 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 2: Oh my god, that looked like him. 342 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, fuck, okay, shit, shit, shit, shit shit. 343 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 2: He's alone. 344 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, he's alone. 345 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 3: As we gain on him, he's winding and weaving, trying 346 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 3: to shake us. 347 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 2: This is Southern tense. 348 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:01,399 Speaker 5: Yeah, Okay, here's in front of me. I'm just gonna 349 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 5: pull right up on him. I'm not going to pull 350 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 5: him over, but I'm gonna pull right up him. 351 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 3: Suddenly the jeep speed drops. We lurched the side after him. 352 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 5: Well he's breaking me. Let's see, he's gonna pull over. 353 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 5: Do you want me tactic? 354 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,959 Speaker 3: I think him just putt's going to see it him? 355 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:20,880 Speaker 5: You want to see. 356 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 2: The agent slams on the brakes. No, it's not him, 357 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 2: it's not him. 358 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:33,360 Speaker 5: It's not him. Him. How could you tell? 359 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:33,719 Speaker 2: I could tell. 360 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 3: I saw his face. 361 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 13: It's not him. 362 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 5: She said, it's not him. 363 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 2: It wasn't Louise in the jeep. 364 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 3: It was a random man in a baseball cap, looking 365 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 3: pretty freaked out as a middle aged woman and two 366 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 3: Brits pulled up beside him with their phones out. I mean, 367 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 3: he was acting shady. The more he tried to lose us, 368 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 3: the more certain we became that it was Louise. Turns 369 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 3: out there was a pretty underwhelming reason why he was 370 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 3: trying to shake us. Some digging from our agents found 371 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,679 Speaker 3: that he'd been driving with a suspended license plate. No 372 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:09,439 Speaker 3: wonder he looks so stressed, adrenaline worn off. We're feeling 373 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 3: pretty gutted. So it is now nearly four o'clock. We 374 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 3: met the security team at six foot five this morning, 375 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 3: so it's been like nine hours since we embedded and nothing, 376 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 3: no sign of him. 377 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 2: It's so frustrating. 378 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 3: And then we see that a model Luisa's been shooting 379 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 3: with has posted on Instagram. Look, she's just uploaded the 380 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 3: photo with him. 381 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 5: Is that today? 382 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 3: Yeah? 383 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 2: Just an hour ago? 384 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 11: Really? 385 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 8: Are do you recognize that place at all? I think 386 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 8: we should go to the desert. That's like, the desert 387 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 8: is a ghost town? 388 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 2: Ah, it's not the desert, is it. 389 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 5: Notice there's no hills there on flat land? 390 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 2: Could it be there? This is a ghost town the vehicles, Oh, 391 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 2: it could be. It's a long shot. 392 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 3: But time for one final Hell, Mary, we think they're 393 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 3: shooting in a ghost town, so we're off to find one. 394 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,679 Speaker 3: After driving up a dirt track, we come across what 395 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 3: looks like the world's oldest saloon at the foot of 396 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 3: a hill leading up to Good Springs, Nevada, population one 397 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 3: hundred and twenty three. 398 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 2: Now I'm feeling properly on edge. This town is so 399 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 2: fucking creepy. 400 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,159 Speaker 3: I haven't been a single person is literally like the 401 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 3: scene of a horror film. How Emma has our investigation 402 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 3: ended up here in. 403 00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 2: A fucking ghost town at the edge of Nevada. 404 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 3: It's not what I thought I would be doing when 405 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 3: I started investigating the glamor industry. There's an irony not 406 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 3: lost on me or Eleanor that our investigation into the 407 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 3: least regulated industry we've ever encountered is ending in the 408 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 3: real wild West. There are tantalizing signs everywhere, including another 409 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 3: white Jeep, but we know better than to fall for that. 410 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 2: Twice. We keep hoping Luise. 411 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 3: Is just around the next corner, but he never is, 412 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 3: and as we pass yet another rundown building, even our 413 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 3: hard nosed agents are giving into wishful thinking. 414 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 5: Do you think anybody is in here? 415 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 3: Looks like said? 416 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 5: I was thinking, And I was like, if it's a 417 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 5: firon apartment. 418 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,360 Speaker 7: I wonder if I showed him the picture and asked 419 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 7: him if if they would by chance? 420 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 12: No, I mean, that's one in a billion. 421 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 5: You're you're real heat, You're. 422 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 16: Asking though, I'm OK, That's what I did the job 423 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 16: I always grasped for straws. 424 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 3: We're about to call it a day when Luise posts 425 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 3: on Instagram again, Okay, we've got video. 426 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:08,440 Speaker 2: We've got a video. 427 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 3: Okay, play out out a lake thing in the background. 428 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 7: Yeap. 429 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 3: This time he's out by a big body of water, 430 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 3: which one of our agents instantly recognizes. 431 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 9: You know where. 432 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 5: He said, it's Leap. 433 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 7: Lake Merom, Lake Mead. 434 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 5: And then you're you're being good and you'll. 435 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 7: Be an hour from there back to the airport. 436 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 5: Ah oh shit. 437 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 12: And by the time we get there, they could be 438 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 12: long gone. 439 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 4: The lake is one hundred and one miles from end 440 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:43,719 Speaker 4: to end and thirty miles across. 441 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 12: There's very a little chance we would find him, even 442 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:46,880 Speaker 12: if we. 443 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 2: Were there kneeling a haystag. 444 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 3: This is so hard, this is so odd, and it's 445 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 3: so frustrating. It's so typical that we now are like, 446 00:24:53,359 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 3: we know where he is and it's too late. I 447 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 3: initially felt like I'd let Emily and all the other 448 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 3: models down. But what was I really hoping to get 449 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 3: from that confrontation. We've put detailed allegations to Luise multiple times, 450 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:18,879 Speaker 3: We've called, emailed, texted. He knows we're making this podcast, 451 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 3: but he's never responded. That silence speaks volumes to me. 452 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 3: I'm also far from the first person to try and 453 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 3: confront Luise. Nearly every model who you've heard in this 454 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 3: series spoke to him first, and he never took accountability. 455 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 3: To our knowledge, the only time Luise has addressed the 456 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 3: British women's allegations of sexual abuse was in an email 457 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 3: chain from twenty twenty two. It was sent to us 458 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 3: by another man in the industry, a small time magazine publisher. 459 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 3: Here's an excerpt from the emails. 460 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:55,199 Speaker 6: Hello there, my name is Louise Gomez. I want to 461 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 6: write you because I want to show you that all 462 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 6: these girls are adults. They do everything because they want, 463 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 6: so here we go. 464 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 3: Luise said that anything that happened between him and the 465 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 3: models was consential. He talks about models sending him explicit 466 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 3: content as evidence of this consent. But I've seen her 467 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 3: as receipts. I've heard her account of how he got 468 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 3: hold of her content by pressuring her and dangling the 469 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 3: promise of a publication in Playboy in front of her. 470 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 3: In the email chain I've seen, Luise also shares screenshots 471 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 3: of conversations with models as evidence of consent. These are 472 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 3: often from before the shoots took place, and they're frank 473 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 3: discussions about sex work and OnlyFans and what these models 474 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 3: do online. Using these messages as evidence of consent for 475 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,719 Speaker 3: alleged abuse makes me feel deeply uneasy. It seems as 476 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 3: though Luise is using the fact that they do sex 477 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 3: work as evidence that they were up for anything. This 478 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 3: makes me realize that any confrontation I might have held 479 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 3: with Luise in Vegas was not going to bring the 480 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 3: model's closure. And the more I think about it, the 481 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 3: less I want this ending to be about Luise at all, 482 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 3: because platforming bad men is never what this series has 483 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 3: been about. I want a different resolution, something that makes 484 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,880 Speaker 3: a real difference to the women I've met along this journey, 485 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 3: and that will hopefully protect more women in the future. 486 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 3: I turned to Luis's Patreon, the subscription site where he's 487 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:46,360 Speaker 3: been posting models explicit content online, in some cases despite 488 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 3: their please not to.

We have been 497 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 12: informed that this photographer has been using his Patreon account 498 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 12: to post content of models, including explicit images and videos, 499 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 12: which he had been sent privately on the condition the 500 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 12: content was for his eyes only. 501 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 3: The models claim that Patreon begins an investigation of their own. 502 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 3: About a month later, Amalia gets an update from Ellen 503 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 3: sat White, the head of communications and US policy lead 504 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 3: at Patreon at the time. 505 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 12: So what can you tell us? 506 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 13: Yeah, so I can't talk about the specific creator, but 507 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 13: let me say it in this way. The account was 508 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 13: removed for violations of our pornography policy. 509 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 3: Luise's Patreon is down and it's because of us. 510 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 13: It triggered our review of this creator. Yes, we were 511 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 13: not aware of it until you reported it to me. 512 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 13: We removed this creator for having violated our policies regarding 513 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 13: pornographic content, and this was not their first violation. 514 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 3: Ellen tells us that Patreon has taken steps to make 515 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 3: sure that Luis can never bring his account back. 516 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 17: If they were to launch another account, it would have 517 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 17: to be substantively different than the account that they have currently. 518 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 12: So can we then assume that Universe one three seven 519 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 12: will not make it comeback to Patreon without Patreon's review. 520 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 5: That's right. 521 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 12: That makes me. 522 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 6: That makes me feel really good. 523 00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 3: I can't wait to tell Emily the news. So we 524 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 3: managed to get his patron removed. 525 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 14: Yes, yes, Oh my god, Oh I love that. 526 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 2: Thank you. 527 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 14: That's that's so relieving. That's really good. 528 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 2: That's so it's weird. 529 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 14: It's like a it's not the outcome necessary that you know, 530 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 14: you can go to court and you can deal with 531 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 14: this stuff, but at the end of the day, if 532 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 14: it's gone, it's gone. It's a huge weight that's been 533 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,719 Speaker 14: lifted knowing that that's not there anymore. And I wouldn't 534 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 14: have been able to do that myself. So I really 535 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 14: appreciate that. 536 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 5: Thank you. 537 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 3: Speaking to Emily again got me thinking about what justice 538 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 3: actually means in a world where successful sexual assault prosecutions 539 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 3: are pathetically low, where sex workers are overlooked and ignored, 540 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 3: while women are slut shamed and victim blaine over and 541 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 3: over again. Maybe this podcast in itself is a form 542 00:30:55,320 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 3: of justice. That first email I received back in twenty 543 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 3: twenty tipping me off about this story was sent to 544 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 3: newspaper desks all over the world, and to my knowledge, 545 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 3: I was the only person who responded, which unfortunately isn't 546 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 3: surprising to me. After all, when was the last time 547 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 3: you heard a mainstream media story from a sex worker's perspective. 548 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 3: I can't help thinking that if these women worked in 549 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 3: a different industry, more people would have listened. Sex workers 550 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 3: and glamor models are no less deserving of our care 551 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 3: than anyone else. They also need respect, boundaries, and understanding. 552 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 2: In fact, they might need it more. 553 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 14: People need to realize that just because we're models or 554 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 14: glamor models, or happy to do topless or nude shoots, 555 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,719 Speaker 14: it doesn't matter any type of photography, that it's not 556 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 14: a free pass for you to touch us, breathe on us, 557 00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 14: get within an inch of our bodies. 558 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 2: I catch up with Herrah one last time too. 559 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 18: I'm so grateful that you've listened, and yeah, you took 560 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 18: it on board, and that you guys have been doing 561 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 18: so much because. 562 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 2: It's not just him. 563 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 18: This could open people's eyes up to other photographers. You know, 564 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 18: this could have like a ripple effect. People might speak 565 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 18: out more about it. 566 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 2: I hope so. 567 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, the story is always felt important to me, 568 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 3: and I think people will listen, and I hope it 569 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 3: does change things, and that is what I want from this. 570 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 3: This series has always been about the models and for 571 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 3: the models, so I'd like to hand over these final 572 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 3: moments to some of the women at the heart of 573 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 3: this story who bravely shared their experiences in the hopes 574 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:50,959 Speaker 3: that it might make the glamour industry safer for everyone. 575 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 2: What would I like to say to Luis. 576 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 11: Definitely he opened my eyes to the dark side of 577 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 11: the industry that I didn't know was a thing really 578 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 11: until then. Thank you for ruining my life at the time, 579 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 11: but Ressis Shark, you haven't ruined it in the long run. 580 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 11: Thanks for making me a stronger person. 581 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 18: I actually have nothing.
