In January 2010, a 15-year-old girl from Palm Beach Shores — we'll call her C.S. — ran away from home.
Eight months later, porn site Reality Kings — owned by Brickell-based smut giant RK Netmedia — uploaded a new film. It was called Cum Fiesta and featured a new porn starlet going by the name Bieyanka Moore.
Now C.S.'s mother, Sherrita Smalley, has filed suit against RK, claiming that her underage daughter and Bieyanka Moore are one and the same — constituting "sexual battery, statutory rape, [and] child pornography."
Pictures from Bieyanka Moore's purported MySpace and Twitter pages look strikingly similar to the photo of C.S. given to Nevada Child Seekers by her grandmother. And Moore has a tattoo — four stars on the right side of her neck — matching C.S.'s description. The runaway is in police custody in Nevada, says Smalley's Miami-based attorney, Mark A. Glassman, and her case is being investigated by the FBI. "This is a lot more complex than she showed up and got in a movie," he says. "A 15-year-old did not orchestrate this alone."
RK claims the actress known as Bieyanka Moore provided producers with a valid Nevada learner's permit, purporting her to be 19-year-old Tyler Chanel Evans, and a corresponding social security printout. If those documents were bogus — as RK appears to concede in some filings — it's the minor's fault: "But for this criminal activity by C.S., she never would have been able to mislead [RK]," the company insisted in court.
A few hours after uploading Moore's film debut, says RK attorney Stuart I. Grossman, the porn company received an anonymous tip claiming she was underage. "They took down the video immediately and called the FBI," Grossman says. "The bottom line is RK did everything it could to verify the actress's age."
As the case unfolds, there is one person who should be worried: the as-yet-unidentified actor who had on-camera sex with the girl. Florida law decrees that "a minor's misrepresentation of his or her age... may not be raised as a defense" in statutory rape prosecution.
