According to reports, GirlsDoPorn founder Michael Pratt has now been placed on the FBI's Top 10 Most Wanted Fugitives List.
The feds say the 39-year-old New Zealand national has evaded authorities since a federal arrest warrant was issued in 2019 after he and his associates were accused of conspiring “to recruit young adult women and minor girls to engage in commercial sex acts by force, fraud, and coercion.”
“This was a despicable crime that has devastated its victims,” U.S. Attorney Randy Grossman said in a statement. “The U.S. Attorney’s Office is committed to combating all forms of sex trafficking. Today’s announcement is yet another important step in our commitment to bring Michael Pratt back to San Diego to face these charges and to seek justice for the victims of these crimes.”
The FBI is now offering a $100,000 reward for information leading to Pratt's arrest. This is a substantial increase from the previous award amount of $10,000.
“Locating Pratt is a high priority for the FBI in order to stop him from victimizing anyone else,” said Stacey Moy, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s San Diego Field Office. “Michael James Pratt preyed on young women and girls and allegedly coerced or forced them through threats and fraud to participate in pornographic videos. He engages in dangerous and deceptive practices wherever he goes, and we will not waiver until justice is served.”
