FBI Head Of 2257 Inspections, Chuck Joyner, Wows XBiz Conference

Audio of Chuck Joyner at the Wednesday morning panel. Audio of the panel discussion between Joyner and attorneys Greg Piccionelli, Jeffrey Douglas and Clyde DeWitt.

If what Joyner said is true, then, according to much of the discussion after the panel, attorneys such as Piccionelli, Douglas and DeWitt have been making big-time bank out of unnecessarily scaring pornographers.

AVN reports. XBiz reports. GFY thread.

Joyner's FBI colleague at the conference was Steve Lawrence.

Chuck says that the FBI's 2257 inspections are not raids nor searches. "There is no negative connotation to being inspected."

At 11:15 a.m., as previously arranged, the FBI agents left the hall and the attorneys told the crowd not to trust what Joyner had just said. He may sound reasonable but he represents dangerous forces.

Jeffrey Douglas: "Things that he said are just wrong."

DeWitt?: "The FBI is pissed that they have to do this."

I eat lunch with Tyler Faith and company.

I ask her: "Does finicky eater equal confirmed bachelor?"

Tyler: "I associate finicky eater with someone who won't go skydiving?"

Luke: "Skydiving? I won't even go down on a woman."

There were fliers for AVNAds.com put on every table but they were yanked off quickly.

Joanna Angel says the Howard Stern show did not want to book her because she's too smart.

Brandon Shalton's introduction to the XXX domain panel Greg Piccionelli's presentation Stephen Balkam of ICRA Attorney Robert Corn-Revere Stuart Lawley of ICM Registry XXX Domain panel discussion audio

Brandon asks the crowd to clap if they oppose .xxx domains. Most of the crowd applauds.

Marc Steyn sits next to me. He tells Brandon to ask the crowd who is in favor of .xxx domains. Brandon refuses.

Later, Marc tries to interrupt the panel with questions but he's told to wait until question time.

Some of the opposition to .xxx domains comes from distrust of the owners of the ICM Registry -- Stuart Lawley and Jason Henderles.

I notice bodyguards near the stage. Were they necessary at other panels?

Only about one in a hundred attendees dresses to impress.

I chat with Sunny Lane and Cousin Stevie.

I ask them about .xxx domains.

"It smacks of McCarthyism," says Cousin Stevie.

"Everything smacks of McCarthyism to you," I reply.

"Why should we be differentiated by .xxx? Are you going to have .jew?"

"I'm against the segregation of anybody."

Luke: "You see a pogrom behind .xxx domains?"

"Yes."

Paulina James interview.

Lyla Lei interview. In porn for six years (since she was 18), she says she's twice had to walk off sets because the male talent was rude.

I question homosexual Jason Sechrest about his "girlfriend" Richelle Ryan.

"Do you put your penis inside her vagina?"

"That is such a personal question," he replies.

Richelle Ryan interview.

Chanel St. James interview. "I danced in strip clubs for twelve years. I joined ClubJenna a year ago."

Hannah Harper says she's retired from hardcore. "I wanted to retire before I started to appear on MILF covers."

She's studying Psychology at college.

Martina Warren (POY 2005) and Pet (2001) Kelle Marie. Part two.

Nikki Nine, Jana and Georgia interview. It starts off with Jana, the blonde. Georgia's answers are short.

Whitney and Britney Stevens interview.

Nicky Nine turns around before the photographers, lifts up her hair, and says: "This is the tattoo that cost me my Hustler contract."

Thursday morning, Ron Levi tells me: "I haven't been in the [Cybererotica] office for three years. Spike [at Homegrown Video] doesn't know his ass from page eight. My business now is domain parking [domainsponsor.com]."

"Ron Levi does not like AVN," says a source. "The dispute goes way back."

Every time I run into Stephen Yagielowicz, I ask him if he brought his gun.

The first time I said this, Stephen replied, "I never leave home without it."

By the fifth time I asked him, he'd grown tired of my joke.
