Mercedes and her boyfriend, who is said to be a director in the industry, are accused of sexually abusing a young girl over several months, according to San Bernardino County Sheriff's detectives.
I am beyond shock and lost for words right now, but at the same time, based on what I've from Mercedes Carrera's Twitter over the last few months, should I really be surprised?
This is so appalling and disgusting. I always had a weird feeling about her because of her twitter activity and some other things I have seen, but I never thought it was anything this heinous.
Police say an adult film actress and a producer who were arrested Tuesday on suspicion of committing sexual acts with a girl may have other victims.
Melinda Smith, 35, and Jason Whitney, 43, were charged Tuesday with eight counts each of sexually abusing a child under the age of 10. They also face a count of possession while armed with a handgun.
As a fan of Mercedes I am so deeply disappointed to hear this from just being a fan. From a human being and a person who love children and hate all types of abuse I am sick and I am so upset. What this goes to show me is that you just dont know about someone. To me Mercedes came across as a sweet person but to be doing this for months is sickening. It has gotten to the point where abuse of all kinds are taking place too much in society and it needs to stop. Everyone who plays a part in abuse need to be punished to the fullest extent.
Now we know why Mercedes was defending Markus and she even wished Alan happy birthday. Like she ok stuff like that because she was doing it herself. I hope the child is ok and I hope Mercedes and her husband get whats coming to them for doing this. People shouldnt be let off the hook for abuse. Again Im deeply disappointed as a fan of Mercedes because I really enjoyed her work and it seemed like each time she did a g/g scene I enjoyed her more and more. Justice needs to happen for that child because this is just sicked and upsetting to know what happened.
The police found items that corroborated the victim's story, as well as video equipment and restraint harnesses. They also found methamphetamine and two loaded handguns.
To illustrate how serious it is, they're both being held without bail. The police also believe there may have been other victims.

This is beyond fucked up. What the fuck is this world coming to? I hope the victims will be okay. I'm glad I'm not a fan of Mercedes. I hope her and her boyfriend get life in prison and then they can rot in hell.
That's mildly complicated, and I guess it depends on who you're asking. I'm just guessing, but maybe the OP was referencing her behavior regarding the Markus Dupree situation. She first started with a mild defense of Dupree, which basically snowballed into her kind of coming unglued and ranting about how sexual assault allegations are fairly often "witch hunts". She had some rather toxic affiliations (IMO) with movements that engaged in some pretty gross targeted harassment of women online, but I'm not sure that's really relevant to this whole thing. To be fair, I stayed far away from her Twitter page because I found most of her opinions to sway from uneducated to downright idiotic. So I'm sure there may be context I'm missing.
Even ignoring her hard right political leanings (let's not beat around the bush here, she was an unapologetic conservative), she's always been very abrasive on social media and has aligned herself with people and movements that also have a tendency to be very abrasive. If you followed her at all besides watching her scenes, nice and sweet isn't what you'd think of when you thought about her.
She wasn't just a conservative, she was an unapologetic white supremacist. I am not really going to beat around the bush either and the fact is that many people with shitty conservative alt-right views always have some dark skeletons in their closet.
She even attacked another a Latina performer who was DACA and threatened to call ICE on her.
What examples of white supremacy? I must have missed that. I also don't know anything about this Markus situation people are referring to. Was he touching kids?
Lol no, It came to light that August Ames said he was overly rough with her in a scene 6 weeks before her death. And was extremely upset by it which may or may not have contributed to her demise.

^ That first sentence is a bold statement. Posting a source would be good if you are going to drop bombs like that.

^ i can't confirm it since i read it in another forum as someone made this comment , i don't have a link to something that can confirmit it so for now let's take it as a rumour but it could be true since the girl was abused for several months and she tells the police now? the news never mention the girl's parents and when the police interviewed the girl she knew the house accurately as if she lived there.
Also the poster said that Mercedes had her with another man , not the one involved in the crime
I might as well throw this out too. Look at Mercedes' transformation from 2015-2018. You can clearly tell by her appearance and her voice that she isn't the same person as she used to be when she first came into the industry. This is why everyone should stay away from extremely illegal drugs such as cocaine or meth (which was found in her home according to this news). The meth is what probably got her, and it's depressing.
^Sorry but I have to call B.S on your post. I seriously doubt that drug use makes you a pedophile which is likely something that she will be accused of due to the victims age.

She's not white, and she said explicitly that she would only shoot interracial scenes that didn't depict black men in a manner that she deemed racist. I mostly ignored her politics, so take this with a grain of salt, but I get the impression that she's a right-wing nationalist, not a white nationalist or a white supremacist.

^^^Pedophilia experts such as James Cantor have pointed out that while some of the people who commit sex crimes against prepubescent children are in fact pedophiles, other people commit sex crimes against prepubescent children simply because they can do so. The later group aren't actually pedophiles, because they have no preference for prepubescent children. Perhaps Mercedes and her husband fall into the latter group. Big emphasis on the "Perhaps" because I don't know either way, and I don't know if she or her husband are guilty of any of the crimes they have been charged with. The presumption of innocence, the prosecution's burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt, the right to confront one's accusers, the right to summon witnesses in one's defense, the right to respond to accusations, the right to equal treatment, the right to trial by jury and the right to due process of law are all very important to me, so I want to make it clear that I'm not assuming that Mercedes is guilty. I'm only speculating about how it may be possible for Mercedes to be guilty of sexually abusing a prepubescent child and yet not be a pedophile.

I gotta call bs on this too. Meth or cocaine does not make you a pedophile. Don't make excuses for her disgusting actions. Drugs are just an excuse people use when they do something wrong. If she did do drugs that's her own fault but it does not excuse anything that she did. I hope she doesn't see the light of day for the rest of her life. I saw on Brazzers she had a scene released two days ago, I would take it down if I was them. Just like when an athlete does something wrong they usually get cut by the team. I just hope the victims will be okay in time with help from their loved ones and friends. No child should ever have to go through that. The world we live in is a terrible place.
Looks like I can clear up some room on my usb drive,some porn stars do the dumbest things.

^^^^ This. Alcohol and drugs do not create any behavior in that wasn't already there in some capacity. The only thing drugs/alcohol do is fire that little person in your head that, in those situations, would say "You really shouldn't do this", that's it. It can make you more susceptible to suggestion, but it cannot create behavior that wasn't there to begin with.
I agree with you and I would add that starting to do meth is an example of their poor choices but I doubt that this will be a good defense for sexually abusing a pre-teen child.
Oh hell naw, make no mistake I'm NOT making any excuses for her disgusting actions. There's no coming back from this disaster she caused on a minor. I'm not saying drug use is an automatic excuse for anyone's poor actions. All I'm saying is that meth or cocaine use can cause an unhealthy mindset and brain, and that unhealthy mindset & brain can often lead to really poor, unforgivable decisions for anyone who use the substances for a long period of time. Research and study have shown this especially with prisoners. We understand people on drugs are still responsible for their actions 100% and were fully aware of what they were doing. That last sentence was poorly done by me, should have been more detailed. You can just tell Mercedes looked unhealthy before she committed pedophile behavior.

^ i agree , i drink and smoke weed , sometimes heavily but i never did anything remotely close to nasty things like that , i would never ever think about doing something like that even under the effect of alchool or drugs
I am one of her number one fans. I love her her movies and politics. I am a black man and in no way is she a so-called "white supremacist". That is a softball pejorative that NPCs use to demonise the right.
As for her allegations, I hope that she is innocent. But even if she is guilty, Mercedes Carrera, the porn character and Melinda Smith the person who allegedly engaged in these horrible crimes are two separate entities and I personally will still enjoy her past work whilst simultaneously hoping she gets appropriate incarceration AND rehabilitation in prison. I also hope that her victim can recover and it does not destroy her life.

^That's a good attitude to have Richard. it's only a minority that avoid the punitive pile on. I essentially saw her politics as libertarian centrist and she was doing good things for bi trans excluded in the industry. I would hope that it was just an existentially destructive path she went down, if guilty, and not a pathogenic mindset at the outset. Obviously I hope the child heals and overcomes.

History has shown thought patterns like this would change in a heartbeat if it were someone you knew. This isn't limited to this type of crime, but most crimes, guns, death penalties, etc, etc. It doesn't make a difference if they are pedos or just abusing kids. Bottom line there is a least one child victim and enough evidence to corroborate the claims. Hence no bail. Sorry, but the fact that she was a porn performer and not a pedo but only an "abuser" of a child because she can excuses nothing.

+1. And, there were 2 people involved so it clearly was a conscience decision. If it weren't, I'm sure a voice of reason, no matter how fucked up one might be would still override a "hey, let's abuse some kids and film it" idea.

I don't know what "thought patterns" you're referring to.It doesn't make a moral difference, but I didn't argue that it did.I wrote: "The presumption of innocence, the prosecution's burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt, the right to confront one's accusers, the right to summon witnesses in one's defense, the right to respond to accusations, the right to equal treatment, the right to trial by jury and the right to due process of law are all very important to me." The making of allegations, a police investigation, and the filing of charges are important steps, but in functioning democratic societies those steps are only part of a larger process.I don't know what was said at the bail hearing. Earlier I speculated that "Perhaps the prosecution made a strong, convincing case that both of the accused are flight-risks?" That's as much as I'm willing to speculate about an event that I know nothing about aside from its outcome.Who said it does and why are you apologizing?
