Summary
Former Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries, facing sex trafficking and interstate prostitution charges, has been diagnosed with dementia and late-onset Alzheimer’s, according to court filings.
Jeffries, 80, and co-defendants allegedly ran an international sex trafficking ring from 2008 to 2015, coercing young men, some financially vulnerable or with ties to Abercrombie, into sex acts for career opportunities.
Prosecutors claim victims were intimidated, drugged, and paid large sums.
Jeffries, under house arrest since October, has pleaded not guilty, with a competency hearing scheduled for June.
Really weird how all these old rich fucks only ever get "discovered’ as pedophiles and rapists at the exact same time they become “mentally unfit to be tried”.
This guy was exposed as a problem decades ago.
But he wasn’t charged decades ago, point still stands.
Just a series of entirely unrelated coincidences, for sure.
Was thinking the same.
