"Clean" Movie Maven Arrested For Teen Sex

Utah Man Who Sold R-Rated Films Shorn Of Skin Arrested For Sex With 14-Year-Old Girls

(CBS)  A Utah retailer of family-friendly tapes and DVDs - Hollywood films with the "dirty parts" cut out of them - has been arrested for trading sex with two 14-year-old girls.

Orem police say Flix Club owner Daniel Dean Thompson, 31, and Issac Lifferth, 24, were booked into the Utah County jail on charges of sexual abuse and unlawful sexual activity with a 14-year-old.

CBS Station KUTV in Salt Lake City reports that the shocking discovery came when a mother found a $20 bill in her daughter’s room last week and questioned her about where the money came from.

The girl confessed that she and a friend had been paid for sexual favors by an older male.

Lifferth was additionally charged with patronizing a prostitute and was also in possession of a prescription drug medication without a prescription.

Thompson's Flix Club was one of several Utah-based video outlets that traded in edited versions of R- and PG-13-rated films, catering to clientele who wanted to watch hit movies without nudity, sex, language or graphic violence.

Such video editing operations came under the gun of Hollywood studios and the Directors Guild of America.

In a case brought by the DGA, a federal judge ruled in 2006 that editing out material (such as Kate Winslet's bare breasts in "Titanic") violated copyright laws. The decision was against a Utah company called Clean Flicks.

Thompson, who was a franchise operator for Clean Flicks, opened Flix Club last year, similarly trading in edited videos but claiming that such editing was for "educational use."

Threats of lawsuits from the Hollywood studios forced him to agree to shut down on December 31.

If the kid accepted $20 for s.e.x. then that makes her a prostitute. Why not charge the daughter with prostitution?

[tomanyt]

Now that''s a funny story.

I hate to say it but I can''t say I''m surprised with Captain Jehova out in Utah getting burned for *** with girls. It''s the same old philosophy that made 12 year old girls at slumber parties make 10 crank calls to the request line every hour, each one more graphic with regard to what they do with me right there. And this wasn''t just cutesy, these girls had better *** slang vocabs that *I* do and I''ve worked in the media for over 40 years!!

Seriously, if you ask singinrick how many gay bars he''''s been to in Ohio, he won''''t answer the question. But he does like to talk about converting gay men to heterosexuality. I shudder to think what kind of perverted methods he uses, but I''''m sure something is driving his obsession with gay men.

Oh he''s obviously closeted ga*y, no doubt about it. He''s a self-hating ga*y who can not accept himself as he is.

[candide777]

LOL! It wasn''t singingrick, I assure you. He prefers to "minister" to young men.

[Krazcarl]

Bernie ***....you are not that stupid keep telling yourself this till you believe it and the world will be a better place

[Krazcarl]

Dmotte lordy this is getting low caliber you even dragged kiethe1 to your thinking {not a great challenage but he''s normaly cooler than his last post} to be honest a 50 year old man manipulating a 14 year old for his plesure is NOT A LAUGHING MATTER, one day IF you boys are straight you may produce a girl you want rich guys trading her out at 14.

[feelfree1]

I think that society is too hard on Mavens, but this man apparently did not think this thing through.

If this guy and a few of his buddies would have raped this 14-year-old girl, executed her family, shot her in the head, and set her corpse on fire, all while wearing a U.S. military uniform, he could have gotten off with a relative hand slap- as we have seen in the recent past.

[cdfoxtrot]

Why is it always these holier than thou people, like Senator Wide Stance, and now this guy, who lead this public life of telling others how to live, but don''t quite measure up themselves. Is it to deflect attention from themselves, or are they just unbelievably arrogant?

memos4 said: He''''s a pedophile using a "clean" video store as a cover; this gives us license to paint all such folks seeking "clean" entertainment alternatives as pervs. Let''''s apply that reasoning elsewhere: next pedophile who''''s gay, or listens to pop music, or clicks on cbsnews.com, guess y''''all must be pedophiles, eh?
------------------------------------------------------

memos4, your logic makes no sense. This guy was ostensibly taking other artists'' works and deleting the "objectionable" material...Who gives him that right? Movies are rated as to their content - if one objects to that content, one should not view it. It''s that simple. And like many that rail the loudest against so-called "indecency", they are often the very ones who secretly seek it. This guy is a hypocrite.

The male *** drive can be quite perverted & sick.
Lock up your daughters!

[dakotaclark]

Hmmm...

Looks like yet another case of a wolf in sheep''s clothing.

I wonder if he is a Good Moron, er, I mean a Good Mormon.

More than likely, there is much more *** abuse within Mormon families; than people know about or suspect. It is kept secret and not reported.

Regardless, these two guys are cretins, AND, they will be getting theirs, so to speak, as fresh meat in the Utah State Prison.

[j_liberte]

Ooh, it get''s better: according to the Salt Lake Tribune (http://www.sltrib.com/news/ci_8083729),"The booking documents state Thompson told the 14-year-olds that his film sanitizing business was a cover for a pornography studio. He asked the girls if they would participate in making a porn movie, but they refused, the documents state. Police found a "large quantity" of pornographic movies inside the business, along with a keg of beer, painkillers and two cameras hooked up to a television."

Great moral values,eh?

[j_liberte]

I think it''s a bit early to say whether or not the girl was "blameless". We''ve all read the many stories of older men "grooming" young girls into s*e*x.

[abdoul_pasha]

The morality doesn`t sign religion.

LOL oh the irony of it all, how the ones who scream the loudest against all the "filth" "child porn" "g@ys" and all the rest always seem to be the very ones caught with 15,000 kiddie porn videos and 10 computer drives full of more showing nothing but what they were yammering for years against!

"Was his online name singingrick?

You mean : "stinkingprik"? the bibull thumper in here? would not surprise me, the pic here looks like what I visualise stinkingprik might look like in Real life (tm)

[timtimes]

Twelve is old enough to be charged as an adult if you''re a young black male who commits a crime, but fourteen is too young if you''re a girl prostituting her body?

The guy is a cretin, hypocrite and goober, but the girl is not blameless here. I have seen no mention of force or collusion. Since the Christians have hijacked the Jew''s Holy Book, they ought to use the same standards of adulthood as the Jews. I think it''s around thirteen when they have their"mitzvahs" and are considered responsible for their actions in the eyes of God.

As to the Bible and youth ***? Be afraid, be very afraid. Don''t make me quote chapter and verse where the biblical rules concerning pedophilia are graphically laid out. These aren''t the verses that usually get highlighted on Sundays, but they''re in the book.

More selective religious outrage. Let''s bash the ***, but let the shellfish eaters do as they like. Not that I believe any of the hooey in any of the manmade God books, but if you''re gonna swear to the unerring accuracy of the texts, it might pay to know what you''re actually signing up for.

I keep waiting for the religious crazies to boycott Red Lobster in the name of consistency, but I''m not holding my breath.

Enjoy.
