SG Isn’t interested in hearsay it’s interested in evidence, when we received the allegation we took the following steps:

1. Verified ID of model
2. Verified exif data of images as date shot
3. Verified the date of the application
4. Verified the date of the set submission
5. Spoke to model who verified she was 18 when shot
6. Spoke to photographer who verified model was 18 when shot

We take these concerns very seriously I am proud of the job SG and @rambo did investigating the evidence, all that matters is the facts. All SG can do is verify the facts.

This allegation was brought up to me on a phonecall earlier this week with the hopeful @hartt. Who I assured we had already investigated this allegation thoroughly, we take it very seriously and had reviewed the evidence and spoke to the model and photographer at the time and verified IDs and meta data. She became quite distressed and said why didn’t I speak to the people who mattered, people who might’ve heard a comment or discussed the comment that the reporter heard 6 years previously.

We believe the model and the photographer and see the continued attack on their credibility as harmful and defamatory to their reputation. @hartt sent aggressive emails to the photographer's employer claiming he’s breaking the law and a felon with no evidence other than an anonymous email. I assured her we had already looked into this matter.

SuicideGirls verifies every model producing legally sound adult content and adheres to the standards in place to do so. I put my support behind @r_girardi and @Cecylia and am posting the evidence below to show my support for them and SuicideGirls staff.

Thank you!
