The founder of Girls Do Porn is a wanted fugitive and the FBI says it will extradite him if he is found hiding abroad.

Michael Pratt is the ringleader of sex crime operation Girls Do Porn, a porn production company that coerced women into having sex on video and lying to them about how the videos would be distributed. According to testimony from his co-conspirator Matthew Wolfe, Pratt may have fled to New Zealand during a recently-ended civil trial where he and his associates were accused by 22 women of fraud and coercion.

“Michael James Pratt is a fugitive. We are attempting to locate him," Kelly Thornton, spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office in San Diego, told Motherboard. "If he were found outside the U.S., we would seek his return. Anyone with information about his whereabouts is asked to contact the FBI.”

The judge in the civil trial ruled in favor of the women, ordering Girls Do Porn to pay them nearly $13 million in damages. But in October, in the middle of the trial, Pratt and his co-conspirators, including lead videographer Wolfe and actor Ruben Garcia were charged with federal counts of sex trafficking.
