FBI Visits Shane’s World for 2257 Inspection
By Steve Javors
Monday, May 7, 2007
CHATSWORTH, Calif. — A team of FBI agents visited the offices of Shane’s World Studios at approximately 9:30 a.m. this morning to conduct a routine inspection of the company’s 2257 records, XBIZ has learned exclusively.
After a quiet start to the year with no 2257 inspections reported until the FBI visited the defunct Moonlight Entertainment on May 3, it seems that the FBI is ramping up inspections.
“Approximately six agents came by this morning and were interested in 10 titles,” Shane’s World owner Jennie Grant said. “After we regained consciousness, we promptly gave them all the records and they got to work. They were here for a few hours and then let us know our records were perfect.
“Once the initial shock of having the FBI at your office wore off, we got to work. I relaxed because I realized we are prepared for this and we have a great staff that pays attention to detail.”
Grant said that one of the FBI agents told her directly, “It’s really rare for us to find zero violations.”
Shane’s World employs a full-time staffer to maintain the company’s 2257 records.
Megan Stokes, Shane’s World vice president of sales, told XBIZ that the agents were interested in the 2257 records for a few of the older titles in the “Shane’s World” series as well as new releases in the line. Also inspected were records from the studio’s popular “College Invasion” series, “Girls Night Out” and “Shane’s World Slumber Party 20.”
Stokes said the agents stayed for a couple of hours at the company’s offices before leaving with their own copying equipment.
The other companies that have been subject to 2257records inspections are Diabolic (July 24, 2006), Sebastian Sloane Productions (July 28, 2006), Robert Hill Releasing (Aug. 1, 2006), Sunshine Films (Aug. 16, 2006), Darkside Entertainment (Sept. 12, 2006), Evasive Angles (Sept. 27, 2006), Legend (Oct. 10, 2006), Pure Play Media (Nov. 16, 2006), K-Beech (Dec. 14, 2006) and Moonlight Entertainment (May 3, 2007).
The FBI’s inspection of Bethlehem, Pa.-based Sebastian Sloane Productions was prompted by an unrelated search warrant.Last edited by seeric; 05-07-2007, 01:24 PM.Comment

Doesn't sound like a fun way to start the week. At least the records were 100% in order.
Give that 2257 manager a raise!

Airek .. maybe you could have your reords keeper post how you guys file you records. Seeing that you guys are 0 infractions, it might be nice to see. I know a couple people that do things slightly different and I for one would be interested in how to keep them with 0 infractions.

Everyone is acting as if 2257 is the end of the world. The truth is many other industries have such record keeping requirements. Because of the fact that our industry a bit more visable than most - and the damage done by Tracy Lords - we are under the microscope a little bit more.

Do you mean they had a general search warrant to search the entire business or was it a specific warrant to view your records?
I mean, did they come for the records or did they come to search every crook and cranny to dig for something to file charges on?
How did they arrive? Suits, black suburbans, how many agents ect...? just curious
Congratulations on a good job..Last edited by Nikki_Licks; 05-07-2007, 04:44 PM.Amateur ContentICQ: 292 356 077Comment

hey don't need a search warrant for inspections.
warrants are for a different purpose.
they came to inspect records.
they wore suits.
there were 6 or 7.
they came in ford explorer. dark grey.
that last part is nothing to do with us, its a company in pa. we are in california. not sure about any of their details. you'd need to ask them.Last edited by seeric; 05-07-2007, 04:47 PM.Comment

Congrats on passing the gestapo, er...FBI shakedown.
Between the FBI and the IRS, it sure must suck living in the U.S. of A. these days.
I'm thankful we moved operations north of the border.
