This guy on Guam was arrested for trying to implement the “drinky girl” system with Filipino women that was once prevalent around US military installations in South Korea:
A producer who arranged for band members from the Philippines to perform on Guam, but had them illegally sell drinks in bars, “sounds like a bad guy,” said District Court of Guam Chief Judge Frances Tydingco-Gatewood, who questioned why he got such a lenient deal from prosecutors.
“I’m not sympathetic to this guy,” she said. “It sounds like he’s holding them hostage.”
Jemuel Luciano appeared in district court twice this week for sentencing after he entered a plea agreement.
In 2013, Luciano petitioned band members to come to Guam to perform, documents state. The female band members performed at Club Chicboy and other bars, and during their breaks were forced to sell drinks at about $30 a drink, which violated their visa status, said prosecutor Stephen Leon Guerrero.
Of the $30 drink sales, $10 would go to the bar, $10 would go to the band and $10 would go to Luciano, said Department of Homeland Security agent Brent Tablan. [Pacific Daily News]
