One of the porn industry’s top agents has been accused by women whom he represents of fraud, sexual abuse and links to an illegal escort business — accusations including coercing performers to pay off"unconscionable" fees and penalties either in cash or by performing sexual acts on him.

Several actresses represented by LA Direct described to NBC how they were financially manipulated and funneled into prostitution by Hay in a 75-minute documentary produced by NBC. Adria Rae signed up as a client of LA Direct Models and although she has not filed a complaint against Hay, she described similar experiences.

"Yet, in these changing times, a small - brave - group of women have decided to come forward, risk their careers and their personal safety, in an effort to vindicate their rights as actors, and human beings, and to protect others," the complaint says. "So when workers come forward about actually exploitative practices, outsiders assume it's normal, almost something workers sign up for when they enter the industry," she said.
