"Clean" Movie Maven Arrested For Teen Sex

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?

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.

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.

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?
