LOS ANGELES -- Adult film star Ron Jeremy was charged with raping three women and sexually assaulting a fourth, Los Angeles County prosecutors said Tuesday.

The counts make the 67-year-old Jeremy the third man to be charged, along with Harvey Weinstein and producer David Guillod, by a task force formed by District Attorney Jackie Lacey in 2017 to investigate sexual misconduct in the entertainment industry.

Jeremy, nicknamed “The Hedgehog,” is among the best known and most prolific actors in the history of the adult film industry, with thousands of credits to his name.

Jeremy, whose real name is Ron Jeremy Hyatt, is scheduled to be arraigned later Tuesday. He was charged with three counts each of forcible rape and forcible penetration by a foreign object and one count each of forcible oral copulation and sexual battery. If convicted of all the counts he could face 90 years in prison.

1. Homunculus

[Miigwech]

4. Fantastic word, thanks for that

[2naSalit]

2. Never heard of him...

Hope he gets what he deserves.

[FreeState]

6. Your probably in the minority

I know Mormons who know who his - he at one point was the most well known male in straight porn.

If he's guilty I hope they throw the book at him.

[Drunken Irishman]

9. He's probably the most famous porn star to ever exist.

And it's not just people who watch porn who know him. His name transcends the industry.

He was big in the 70s as a porn star but moved into acting a while back. He's famous for being famous, I guess.

[rpannier]

27. He made several non-porn movies. Most were really cheap slasher movies

Those were also pretty bad

[yaesu]

3. from what I'm seeing on twitter he has the same attitude as tRump, the "if you're famous" excuse. nt

[mzmolly]

5. Good riddance.

[MontanaMama]

7. People paid him to have sex

on camera? Yeeesh.

[SoCalNative]

10. He has a unique..um....

gift.... that made his career

[Polybius]

12. Lol!

[LuvNewcastle]

14. Isn't it something how such a "gift" can

make up for such a profound amount of ugliness. He was never what one would call attractive, not even when he was young. I guess he made the men less intimidated and aided their fantasy that they could also pick up those women without a pocketful of cash.

[forgotmylogin]

16. He started back when nobody really cared what the men looked like.

I know that's a really stereotypical heterosexual view that doesn't take into account that women also enjoy pornography, but we've come a long way.

From stories I've read, men were rarely the "stars" of heterosexual porn, though Jeremy and several others were exceptions.

Also, Ron Jeremy was always kind of a schlub, but much less so when he was younger.

[LuvNewcastle]

17. Yeah, that's a flattering picture of him.

He wasn't so physically repellent back then.

[Marcuse]

18. Like Ralph Kramden, Fred Flintstone, Doug Hefferman, etc. A hero to incels everywhere.

[RhodeIslandOne]

24. Weren't all those characters married?

[Marcuse]

26. Like Jeremy, they were all aesthetically challenged relative to their mating partners.

[Dennis Donovan]

30. They all had big penises?

[Initech]

8. I'm shocked, shocked! Well not that shocked!

[SunSeeker]

11. He is truly disgusting.

[Historic NY]

13. the hedgehog must have some stash of the blue pill

[Evolve Dammit]

15. For years he was a resident of the "Bunny Ranch" a NV pay-for-sex brothel. May still be?

[Xolodno]

19. With all the damn porn he's done...

...and was still doing.

Why on earth would he need to sexually assault someone? You would think by now he's to tired to even "get it up".

[Eugene]

20. ...just because he could?

Power corrupts, and Harvey Weinstein wasn't the only showbiz person to abuse it.

[Xolodno]

28. It really boggles the mind.

He could literally call up any porn star or two...or twenty and "satisfied himself". Add to that, got someone to film it and make some money when it hit the porn sites.

But no, wanted a specific person. You are probably right, he got to the point of thinking he could get whatever he wanted. Just sick.


And then I look at Trump and his past interesting comments. Some people really are stains on humanity.

[Eugene]

33. To quote post #22, rape is about power, not sex.

... and to quote the Deplorable-in-chief, "When you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything." You know the rest.

[greenjar_01]

21. The pride of Benjamin Cardozo High School

[warmfeet]

22. Rape is about power,

not sex.

Lock him up.

[MissMillie]

36. Yep

Fair trial and prison time if he is guilty.

Geez, not once, but 4 times. They keep doing it because they get away with it.

[Skittles]

23. he is so gross

[BigmanPigman]

25. I remember Tony Bourdain had him on his TV show

No Reservations, Food Porn 2. I never heard of him before this.

https://dai.ly/x6tyh3l

He is at 31:36 and he is NOT attractive in any way.

[truthisfreedom]

29. Luckily I've never seen him "in action." But his fame precedes him. This is just very strange news.

Very peculiar. Disgusting, horrible, but very weird.

[Marrah_Goodman]

31. ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

[LudwigPastorius]

32. Gross. He looks like the love child of Gene Simmons and a Mario brother.

At least he won't be lonely in prison, as he can purportedly pleasure himself...umm...with no hands.

[Polybius]

34. He's played Mario before too

[LudwigPastorius]

35. *shudder*
