The Civil Guard has arrested in Madrid the father, the boyfriend and the friend of a 17-year-old girl accused of producing porn videos with the teenager, M., of Venezuelan nationality, and with another girl.

Recordings that were sold to OnlyFans, an erotic content platform.

The minor's boyfriend, Rubén, and his friend Eyob have been sent to prison by a judge for two crimes of human trafficking, another crime against the Public Treasury, since they invoiced abroad, and another of

corruption of minors and induction into prostitution.

The minor assures that she did it voluntarily and with the consent of her father, according to her lawyer, Beatriz Uriarte, from the Ospina Abogados firm, who assures that when she made the videos she was already of legal age.

The girl and her boyfriend, Rubén, lived together and

have earned more than two million euros annually

.

The Civil Guard, however, believes that the girls were captured when they were minors.

It was the director of the IES Las Lagunas de Rivas (Madrid) where the young woman was studying, who reported the events to the Civil Guard when she found out that the student was making porn videos and selling multimedia content about sexual practices alone or with other people.

The Central Operational Unit of the Civil Guard and the Judicial Police of Rivas Vaciamadrid began to investigate the case for a crime of inducing a minor into prostitution and located one of the places where the minor made these videos with adults, located

in the Four Towers of La Castellana in Madrid.

They also recorded in luxury hotels in Barcelona.

In the investigation, the agents managed to identify two people, Rubén and Eyob, who picked up the minor and took her to hotels where she made some of the sexual videos.

For this reason,

the girl would receive money through Bizum through an account whose owner is her father, "investigated by these events."

The investigations of the Judicial Police indicate that although the minor and probably her parent would be profiting from the sale of this pornographic material, "there was

an organization that would be providing economic, technical and human support prior to the minor

and that of the creation and distribution of all that material would be obtaining an important economic profit.

The researchers point out that these people would be using minors in precarious situations, such as M., a migrant from Venezuela with a difficult economic situation.

But in the course of the investigations, another previous minor victim is mentioned, T., who would have been

transferred to Cyprus by Rubén and locked in a house "making her work day after day" making videos of sexual content and even assaulting her.

From the telephone conversations analyzed by the Civil Guard, it is clear that the detainee's modus operandi was to take the girls away from their families, even taking them to another country, to sexually exploit them there.

Erotic platform advertisement.

The investigation also shows that the detainees were aware of M.'s minority, since

they used another person's documents to accommodate her in a hotel, among other examples

.

Furthermore, they appreciate the "commodification and objectification" of the girl.

The order states that Rubén was dedicated to the management of OnlyFans accounts through an agency of "representation, model promotion and account management, when what these so-called models

do is pornographic content together with those investigated, material that is sell and they split the money 50/50

."

And that his partner, Eyob, would dedicate himself to attracting girls.

"They became boyfriends"

The Civil Guard believes that the minors were recruited by their alleged trafficker on the social network

Tinder

and "became boyfriends," with the victims maintaining a strong emotional dependence on him.

The mechanism of recruitment and exploitation is the so-called

lover boy

,

"known modus operandi of some traffickers in the commission of Human Trafficking Crimes."

The car also reveals that it was not the only interaction of this individual with underage girls.

For all of the above, the Public Prosecutor's Office wrote that there are indications of criminality, at least for a crime of corruption of minors and induction into prostitution, understanding that

there is also a risk of destruction and concealment of evidence.

During his statement before the Civil Guard, the arrested Eyob

denied that he was dedicated to recruiting girls, he noted that "he has never profited from porn money

and has never authorized the dissemination of any sexual video in which he appeared."

He also declared that all sexual relations with the injured parties had been consensual and that he thought they were of legal age.

The other detainee acknowledged that he managed girls' OnlyFans accounts but

that he "neither contacted nor recorded minors

,

that everything he does is with consent, that he even has contracts with some,

that he records at home and other times in hotels or others." places and that he sometimes gives certain 'guidelines or advice' to the girls for their recordings.

Likewise, Rubén stated that T, the other girl who appears in the summary, is his ex-partner and that he threatened and harassed his girlfriend and that she was obsessed with him.

And that he met M. through Tinder, "that she is an app to which you have to be of legal age to belong, which is why he thought she was of legal age."

The minor's lawyer assures that Rubén had a company that worked with Only Fans models.

They sent him the videos, he uploaded them and managed the accounts and then paid the girls a percentage.

Uriarte adds that

Rubén's girlfriend is going to testify in her favor and that she is going to continue dedicating herself to OnlyFans.
