Los Angeles firefighters are under investigation by the LAFD for apparently allowing porn producers to use their fire engines (the actual fire engines, not a euphemism for their hubba-hubbas) in an adult film. This follows reports in April that two LA traffic cops from the Los Angeles Department of Transportation appeared in a porno.
In one of the movies, shot at Venice Beach, LAFD Engine 263 is used as the backdrop by an actress performing lewd acts.
“Look at this fire truck,” says porn actress Charley Chase, as she climbs on the engine and repeatedly exposes herself. “Isn’t that nice.”
It appears that a group of firefighters are watching the movie being shot.
“I know them,” one man says on camera in the reality-style porn flick. "I’m a firefighter.”
For several minutes of the movie, the actress appears to have free access to the engine, and asks numerous passersby to fondle her.
“Look, I think we have more friends,” she says, as a group of men stop to fondle the actress.
I'll tell you what's a lewd act. That goddamned lousy excuse for dialogue, that's what. Seriously, why do they bother?
More at NBC Los Angeles, and an update here at the LA Times with outrage from the mayor.
The incident in question involves LAFD staff and equipment in Venice, but there's more: a second investigation is under way involving a fire engine from LAFD in Hollywood in another pornographic film.
Today on her blog, the adult actress Charley Chase apologized to the firefighters:
Check it out! I was involved in a scandle… hummmmm who would have thought! hehe
I just want to say that I am soooo sorry to the fire fighters involved. it was not my intentions for any one to get hurt or fired or whatever. I am not sure why news reporters are resorting to porn to make there stories these days, but shit… it was a fun day! The Fire Fighters watched me stroll the beach from a distance, but were NOT involved in us invading the truck. I love how news people bend and twist the stories they report to better suit there point. As I said before… there was no set up to that day at all and I tried everything I could to let that be know. That was almost three years ago and it is crazy stupid that this is a problem now. I have had Fire Chief’s come to my house, reporters contact me, and a strange amount of harassment from them both. There has been all kinds of crazy aftermath from that day and in all actuality it was a brief moment of fun. Video has a way of making time seem longer then it really is and unfortunately, in this case, it is used for the worse. I am excited for it to all blow over… Especially for the fire fighters case. I never got to meet any of those men that day, but I sure do hope they don’t hate me or porn for what happen. Again, I am super sorry to all of them involved and I promise to keep the fun we have in the future our dirty little secret.
