Last week, the FBI indicted adult film production company Girls Do Porn, charging the owners and key employees with counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud, and coercion.

Separately, 22 women who appeared in the films took the company to civil court in San Diego, and say they were lied to about the nature of the films, how much they would be paid, and how the videos would be distributed. That trial has been going on for months. When the films were uploaded to huge porn websites, people identified the women to their communities and families. Many say the trauma ruined their lives.
