Former Abercrombie And Fitch CEO Faces FBI Probe for Sex Abuse and Trafficking Allegations

The FBI has launched a probe into former Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries and his partner Matthew Smith following allegations of sexual exploitation and trafficking of men at events they hosted globally. A civil lawsuit also claims they operated a sex-trafficking business. The investigation, led by FBI agents specializing in alleged sex crimes and federal prosecutors, was prompted by a BBC report and documentary alleging exploitation of young adult men at events in London, New York, and Marrakesh. Abercrombie & Fitch has expressed disgust at the alleged behavior and suspended part of Jeffries' retirement benefits.
