Ron Jeremy, Adult Film Icon, is Facing 250 Years in Prison for Dozens of Sexual Assault Charges
With these damning charges against him, this perpetrator is being served the justice that matches their crimes.
There’s nothing we love more at the Fearless publication than justice for survivors being served on a cold plate of justice.
And Ron Jeremy, porn icon in the adult industry, is about to be served a heaping portion of his.
On August 31, it was announced that 20 more charges of sexual assault against 13 additional women will be laid on Jeremy, on top of the 6 he was already served in June 2020, which could ultimately lead to an overall sentence of 250 years in prison for his heinous acts.
The #MeToo and survivor community are pre-celebrating this massive win, because it is so uncommon for attackers to be prosecuted, even less likely for a celebrity attacker to be prosecuted, and to top it all off a potential sentence of 250 years? Fantastic.
These additional charges follow his conviction of assaulting 4 women in 2014. He would have faced 90 years in prison if convicted of the first set of charges in June.
Now, there’s another 140 years of prison time potentially stacked on top of that.
We never see numbers like that — but we’re thrilled that in this case the punishment somewhat matches the crime of the deep and traumatic violation of his victims.
It’s already a massive victory for us all, hopefully ensuring that this monster can no longer violate another human being, and will rot in jail for the rest of his days.
Ron Jeremy has been terrorizing women for decades.
The victims' ages span from 15–54.
The 15-year-old survivor was passed out when Jeremy assaulted her with objects and his own body. This charge dates back to 2004.
The latest charge took place on January 2020, where Jeremy allegedly sexually assaulted a 21-year-old woman outside a Hollywood business.
Jeremy denies any sexual misconduct, but the evidence and victim testimonial count is stacking up against him.
There’s no where else left for this monster to run and hide.
He is currently being held on a $6.6 million dollar bail.
Survivors of Ron Jeremy have a tough fight ahead of them.
The concept of consent already seems a little too grey for most of society, making trials revolving around sexual assault especially tough to prosecute.
The whole idea of consent being something that can be given and then taken away, or not being there at all even if one is wearing revealing clothing, becomes a very ‘tough’ philosophical debate for puny minds with misogynistic thinking.
When at the end of the day, consent is very black and white — it’s either given enthusiastically or it isn’t.
And just because an attacker thought it was there, doesn’t mean it actually was.
Our fellow survivors in the porn industry, who are among Ron Jeremy’s survivors, really have an uphill battle on this front — part of their job is performing sexual acting, which requires their consensual participation on a daily basis.
It would be all too easy for our patriarchal society to deem adult actresses as “automatically having activated consent at all times” because of their choice of profession.
Just as I knew justice would not be on my side because my attacker was someone I was dating romantically at the time, the odds were against me when it came to being believed. I knew the statistics. And so, I didn’t step forward to press charges.
I’m at peace now with that decision — but, and understandably so, not everyone can find peace without justice. And that’s exactly what these survivors did. Their bravery is unparalleled and beyond comprehension — I’m so proud of these women for all they’ve done for the sexual assault survivor community already, just by being brave enough to step forward and speak up.
Despite the unquestionable re-traumatization they’ll experience during the trial, they’re securing justice not only for themselves, but every survivor out there.
This proves that rape has never been just about the sex — it’s always been about something far more psychological.
Ron Jeremy has likely had more sex than anyone you or I know. Maybe, in his career’s lifetime, he’s had more sex than every person you know added up together.
And so, with access to so much sex, that he also gets paid handsomely for, why the need to forcibly assault others for sex when frequent access was accessible whenever he wanted it?
The answer to that is that it was never about sex — it was always about power. That’s what sexual assault is — a power move.
And it’s generally just an abuse of power, in a lot of cases. As a porn icon, Ron Jeremy would have all the connections to get a new up-in-coming or aspiring adult actress into the spotlight — in exchange for a bit of payoff.
An “I’ll scratch your back if you scratch mine” sort of exchange.
Sexual assault has always been a power move, abuse of power, and psychological game for building the egos of pathetic, insecure attackers since its first use.
It’s never been about sexual gratification — it’s always been about psychological domination and breaking of spirit of the victim.
That’s why this teeny tiny, poor excuse for a human being went out of his way to rape women when he could go to work and have consensual sex — because he likes the domination, and the power, and the act of reducing women to nothing more than a sex object to get off on or inside of.
There’s a good reason the United Nations officially considers rape a war crime — it always has, and always will, come down to power and domination over another person, meant to shatter them completely.
Final word.
This is such a big win for us, as an active community in the global #MeToo conversation.
I am so pleased to know that this bucket of filth will likely be spending the rest of his days trapped behind bars, with all of his life luxuries stripped away from him.
Anyone who violates others in such a heinous and damaging way does not deserve the luxuries this world has to offer.
He committed the crime — now he should pay the ultimate price for his actions.
Unable to pay such a hefty bail price of over $6,000,000, it’s likely that Jeremy will remain in jail until his trial concludes.
To which many of us say, “Great!”, because it means he can’t harass, attack or traumatize any other victims while he’s in custody.
The hope, always in these cases, is that the survivors of the atrocities will get the justice they deserve, and that the vicious attacker will be put and kept behind bars so that he cannot violate any other people ever again.
The amount of entitlement in this case is absolutely astonishing… and that’s exactly why #MeToo survivors are fighting tooth and nail to bring justice to those who have had to stay silent for so long.
We’re not silent anymore.
And our perpetrators should be afraid… because we’re coming for all of them.
