Luke, an aspiring model, was contacted by someone claiming to be a house manager for Mike Jeffries. He was flown to Madrid for what he thought was a modeling opportunity, but ended up in a staged Abercrombie store setup in a hotel room where he was pressured into sexual acts with Jeffries and Smith. Traumatized by the experience, Luke turned to drugs and struggled with addiction for years before finally recovering and deciding to share his story.
  • Luke was contacted through Model Mayhem, not through Jim Jacobson.
  • The hotel room was staged to look like an Abercrombie store.
  • Luke was paid 3,500 euros upfront.
  • Luke felt pressured and had no choice in the situation.
  • The experience fueled Luke's drug addiction, leading to an overdose and subsequent arrest.
  • Luke has since recovered and is now helping others with addiction.
