Judge Goes Wild on Joe Francis

Posted Apr 6th 2007 12:59PM by TMZ Staff

Joe Francis"Girls Gone Wild" video kingpin Joe Francis lashed out at a Florida judge after refusing to surrender to authorities on a contempt citation, which may end up stripping him of his freedom!

Judge Richard Smoak ordered Francis into custody after settlement talks with seven women (who were minors when Francis filmed) took a turn for the worse. Lawyers for the women claim Francis threated them during negotiations. Joe told the AP that the judge "had lost his mind," adding, "This judge has gone so far as to call me the devil and an evildoer. It is a case of a judge gone wild."

Francis' lawyers have appealed the court order, which would send the 34-year-old millionaire to jail.

12. He needs to go to jail where he might just end up being "used" by someone and he can feel just how degrading it is to be treated as merely a sex object. He's far too arrogant for his own good. A few times being knocked off his pedestal might just benefit him.

15. I am happy this is happening to Joe Francis. Shame on him for making and putting these videos out there and corrupting more minds. It is wrong and this is not what women are for. Yes, he has made lots of money and yes, there were tons of girls willing to do this. But I guarantee as the years pass, many of these girls if not all of them will regret what they did. Let's stop making this world a mans playground and stop filling their lustful desires in the way women are viewed by all these slimy perverts. We are mothers, sisters, daughters, etc. Not whores and sluts which these videos just prove the female population to be.
