We commend all the brave men who have come forward about their experiences of sex trafficking under the guise of modeling opportunities for #Abercrombie. @GovKathyHochul, you can prevent this abuse by signing the #FashionWorkersAct into law in NY.
Former Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries was arrested Tuesday on charges of sex trafficking and prostitution, prosecutors said. Jeffries allegedly leveraged his position as CEO to lure young men into sex by suggesting they could become models for the fashion company.
