Santiago. – Santiago’s Prosecutor today announced the arrest of 19 people including a U.S. citizen and a Colombian, charged with running a porno site and of recruiting girls from universities in this city and in the capital, to perform sexual acts for European and American online customers.

Yeni B. Reynoso said in coordination with the Police High-tech Crimes Unit and other agencies raided the business Dominican Republic Media Ventures located on Las Carreras avenue Thursday night and detained a guard, the foreign administrators, and 16 women for questioning, who were reportedly paid up to 45,000 pesos monthly or around 50 dollars daily.

The Office of the Prosecutor added that seized in the raid were vibrators, body creams, several computers, Webcams, mattresses and flyers, which were handed out during the carnival last Sunday.

I read this. It just shows that even in a country where you can run the game the old fashion way from bars and the streets, you still have to have some business in the virtual world like online porn and prostitution. I laughed when I saw vibrators as one of the first items seized.

Should have avoided advertising in their area of operation

Not at all uncommon. While prostitution is not illegal, Producing pron here is. That is why I assume most porn filmed in the DR is shot by U.S. or Can. Sites/companies, and hosted or distributed out of the country.

I have known several people arrested in the past for filming or producing porn in country.
