Two Porn Stars Test Positive for HIV, Industry Shutdown A-Coming?
from Adult Video News
CHATSWORTH, Calif. - As feared, one of the women who worked with Darren James has tested HIV-positive. Lara Roxx, one of three Canadians in the first-generation, has just been confirmed positive by the Adult Industry Medical Healthcare Foundation (AIM).
I do not mean to belittle the plight of these unfortunate porn stars; that truly does suck. But I wonder what will happen if this major economic engine of the U.S. goes belly- up? If a multi- billion- dollar industry stops, a lot of people will lose their jobs, from the porn stars on down to the kid restocking the porn shelf at the family video store.
PS- Do not read the "more" section if you are not cool with words such as "mini-gang bang."

CHATSWORTH, Calif. - As feared, one of the women who worked with Darren James has tested HIV-positive. Lara Roxx, one of three Canadians in the first-generation, has just been confirmed positive by the Adult Industry Medical Healthcare Foundation (AIM).
Roxx, who is either 18 or 19-years-old, performed in a mini-gang bang scene with Darren James, Mark Anthony, Maxxx Black on March 24. Anthony and Black performed a double anal with Roxx, as part of that scene. Black is now quarantined as a member of a new line of the virus.
Black has since performed with Rayveness, who is now considered in second-generation of this new line of the virus and quarantined as well.
Roxx had only been in the adult industry for three months. Her scene with James and Anthony was her first double anal.
Her agent Daniel Perreault, the agent who handles the women for the Eromodel Group, told Roxx not to come to Los Angeles on this trip, saying he didn't believe she was ready yet. She came anyway.
In another development in James' line of the virus, John Strong has been identified as a person who worked with Banesca, one of the women in the first-generation of that line. Strong has been placed on the quarantine list.

CHATSWORTH, Calif. - Three of the women that have been placed on quarantine until they have been cleared by AIM are Canadians that are represented by the Eromodel Group, an agency that works out of Montreal.
No new names have been added to either the first-generation or second-generation list, though sources report that the second-generation list should be larger, but people have not come foward to identify themselves. As this is an emergency situation, any knowledge of people who should be quarantined should be reported to AIM immediately; it isn't safe to assume that people are being responsible.
Two of the women from Eromodel Group, Patricia Petite, 19, and Laura Roxx, 18 or 19, both had direct sexual contact with Darren James, the veteran performer who has identified as HIV-positive. Petite had anal sex with James, and Roxx performed a double anal with James and Mark Anthony.

The third Eromodel performer, Judy Starr had a scene with Patrica Petite and an unknown male after Petite's scene with James.
"We're very, very, upset and worried about the girls," Daniel Perreault, the agent who handles the women for the Eromodel Group, told AVN.com
All three of the women are currently quarantined.
All three women performed in College Dropouts, a video scheduled for release on April 21 by Doghouse Digital, an adult studio based in Montreal. "Talent drives customer interest in our industry and we believe that this is the time when companies should give back to the talent in their time of need. This is their livelihood and as we urge them to stay in quarantine for 60 days, we as an industry need to help them out," Jon B, general manager of Doghouse Digital said.
Darren James and Mark Anthony were in Montreal in Febraury, and worked with all three girls at that time. When they came down to Los Angeles was one of their first stops was Evasive Angles, the production company that both men worked for.
