The roles are somewhat reversed in this case but I believe the principles to be the same. She wants to take back her service (modelling), he paid money for said service. How is it extortion to ask that the money that was paid be returned before surrendering the material?

Letting these girls off the hook and allowing them to trot off with cash still in hand sets a bad precedent. I'm not saying ruin her life, I'm saying that the one thing this type of girl needs to learn is responsibility and taking responsibility for her actions, and one way to reinforce that concept is to have her give back her end of the bargain.
