FBI Not Targeting Specific Titles in 2257 Inspection

LOS ANGELES — FBI agents on Monday conducted a routine inspection at the offices of Diabolic Video of records related to 18 U.S.C. §2257, XBIZ has confirmed.

“It was an inspection in accordance with Title 18, Section 2257, which allows the FBI to inspect a company’s offices during normal working hours,” FBI spokesperson Laura I. Miller told XBIZ, adding that she could not offer more details at this time.

Miller did, however, say that the records were randomly selected and that no particular titles were targeted.

2257 regulations requiring record keeping for content depicting actual sexual acts have been in place since Nov. 18, 1988. However, until this week, no adult companies had been subject to inspections.

In 2004, then-Attorney General John Ashcroft called for an expansion of the requirements to extend to secondary producers. The new rules officially went into effect June 23, 2005, but the FSC secured an injunction against enforcement on behalf of members. The injunction remains in force.
