Ex-Abercrombie CEO Mike Jeffries, cronies lured models with promise of jobs then sexually assaulted them: Lawsuit

In a new lawsuit filed against ex-Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries, his partner and cronies, two aspiring male models claim they were promised lucrative gigs with the company — then drugged, raped and sex-trafficked by the company leaders.The two accusers said they were forced to shave all the hair from their bodies, and endured penis injections “in order to force a long-lasting erection” during multiple sickening sex parties, according to a Manhattan Supreme Court lawsuit.The abuse allegedly started when a Jeffries associate named James Jacobson recruited the men — whose names are being withheld by The Post — for modeling work in 2010 and 2011, and “made it clear” they had to have a successful meeting with him first, according to the court papers.Jacobson then sexually assaulted the men, one of whom was a teen at the time, according to court papers and the victims’ attorney.The abuse by Jeffries and his cronies allegedly took place in Manhattan, the Hamptons and on international trips, according to their lawyer, Robert Georges.Jeffries, 80, his partner Matthew Smith and Jacobson were indicted in October in Central Islip Federal Court on sex trafficking and prostitution charges.The alleged victims, who are seeking unspecified damages, filed the suit against Abercrombie & Fitch, Jeffries, Smith and the Jeffries Family Office. Jeffries, Smith, 61, and Jacobson, 71, have pleaded not guilty and were released on bail or bond.“We are so proud of our clients’ courage in bringing this case forward and we are deeply committed to holding Abercrombie and the defendants responsible for their conduct, which can only be described as horrific, abhorrent and criminal,” Georges told The Post. ...
