Recently, well-known porn producer, director, and actor John Stagliano was indicted by the U.S. Department of Justice, with investigation provided by the FBI's Adult Obscenity Squad. Behind Kink had a chance to ask John Stagliano about the charges against him, and to investigate the larger question of obscenity prosecutions against the porn industry. Although attitudes towards erotic and sexual material have continually thawed, John Stagliano's prosecution is a reminder to us all that the freedoms we take for granted can still be challenged at any time.

Somehow it's way more shocking that Roman Ragazzi is topping in Home Bodies than to learn he's popping Damien Crosse's cherry.

Damien on the bottom I can deal with ... you can practically hear his hole asking to be abused and he even jokingly refers to himself as big bottom in a recent blog post. Not to mention the video run down of his weekend of pig sex a few weeks ago.

Roman on the other hand ... I don't know if I can even handle the concept! While a bottom with a thick nine-incher is frustrating to deal with in real life, in porn it's as unforgivable as a hot ass that won't surrender the pink. Thank god they both gave in ...

After six long months of painting, nailing, sanding and removing thirty years of debris, the last two windows in the SF Armory Window Restoration Project have been finally installed. This massive undertaking was a commitment that Kink.com Founder and CEO Peter Acworth made when he purchased the building in December of 2006. From its inception, this process went through many different stages; from first getting approval from the San Francisco Landmark Preservation board, to finding the right kind of window to replicate the Armory's historical aesthetic, to repairing the damage caused by years of neglect that destroyed the original window frames, the project has literally shed some light into the formerly gloomy interior of the Armory, and softened the building's ominous character. Having greatly enhanced the Armory's exterior, Kink.com is much closer to reaching the goal of restoring the building to its original splendor.

Jet Set always referred to their former exclusive Sebastian Young as a "Bad Boy", and now I finally understand why ... he's a fugitive from the law! GayPornTimes is reporting that the 25-year-old (who also did some work for BrokeStraightBoys) has a rap sheet a mile long that includes arrests for robbery and trafficking in hot property and, most recently, "Battery Upon a Person 65/Older". Beating the elderly ... hey, that's just like ex-Jet Set exclusive Nickolay Petrov!

Maybe if he gets caught he'll be end up in the pokey next to a certain "quote happy" manager -- no stranger to prison himself -- rumored to be returning to the big house soon this time for a very long time.

Check out a couple more pics of Sebastian after the jump ...

Kink.com is always seeking fresh faces and new models to enrich our content. Though we all have our favorites, breaking in a first-timer is something that everyone can rally behind. Recently, Kink.com's new Pussy Wagon chauffeur Guido approached Senior VP of Production. Lisset Barcellos, about his friend, Tripod Man, a little person with some big assets and a yearning to be an adult entertainer. Seeing the potential of this enthusiastic applicant, Kink.com put Tripod Man to the test by having him participate in the live shoot for Princess Donna's yet-to-be-named new website. And after delivering a strong performance with Samantha Sin, Tripod Man had the attention of the entire company.

It's been a while, but Natta of QueerMeNow was nice enough to send over his five favorite recent amateur pics, and he's really outdone himself once again. Without much further ado, here's five hot recent amateur scenes you may have missed:

1. Ski Retreat Fuckfest (SeanCody.com)
Sean Cody took four models (Harley, Addison, Devin, and Berke) to his friend's ski house and shot a bunch of scenes, many of which he's already released. He saved the best for the last: On the last day in the house, they decided to do one big fuckfest with all four guys, each fucking and getting fucked by each other. Devin even gets double penetrated!

2. "Behind The Line 2" : Brock Bottoms For King Cole! (ActiveDuty.com)
Brock (Brock Penn from Falcon's The Velvet Mafia) has become familiar face on Dink Flamingo's ActiveDuty.com. And in the latest installment, Brock surprised everyone by bottoming for the first time on camera. I love to watch big buff Brock taking it up the ass and it's a bonus that he gets fucked hard by Cole (or King Cole) ... one of the biggest cocks on the site.

Unless it's lumberjack plaid or a CHiPs uniform, you don't normally see porn stars with their clothes on. Usually, Jack and I spend the early part of any award show cataloging the Ed-Hardy-fuelled foibles of the Rentboys and the peek-a-boo outfits favored by those who've recently discovered steroids. (Granted, it's better than gay wedding fashion, but that's porn stars can still expect to have sex.) Either way, I couldn't do it this year because I was, um, otherwise occupied, but the charmingly debauched Roma was there cop a feel or two on our behalf.

3. David Brady: Adorable preppy boy-next-door type ... when he fingers his ass, it's like he's doing it for the very first time ...

During the last few months, Kink.com has held many company contests, designed to highlight the wide variety of the Production Department's skills. Prizes have been given out for the best photo, the best website promo, and unforgettably, for the best orgasm. The contests are widely popular with both Kink.com employees and Behind Kink viewers. This month's contest showcased the creative workings of our websites' directors, as well as the innovative craftsmanship of Kink.com's Art Department, with a contest for "Best Use of a Prop." Since the contest focused on many of the Art Department's creations, they also chose the winner. But, we'd still like to know what you think is the best use of a Kink.com prop. So go to the Behind Kink Forums and give us your opinion - because yours is the vote that truly counts.
