Mike Jeffries, his partner Matthew Smith, and their alleged accomplice James Jacobson are accused of using a "casting couch" tactic to recruit and exploit male models.

    1. To anyone who thinks they can exploit and coerce others by using the so-called casting couch system, this case should serve as a warning: Prepare to trade that couch for a bed in federal prison.

    1. Their fight for justice does not end here. We look forward to holding Abercrombie and Fitch liable for facilitating this terrible conduct and ensuring that this cannot happen again.

    1. The defendants employed a referral system in an interview process that did not inform the men of the details of the sex events before they attended, including the full extent and nature of the sexual activity that would be required of the men at these events. They caused the men to believe that attending these sex events could yield modelling opportunities with Abercrombie.
