LOS ANGELES (AP) — An adult film producer is expected to be sentenced after he was convicted of violating federal obscenity laws by selling movies depicting bestiality and extreme fetishes.
Ira Isaacs could face a sentence ranging from probation to 20 years in prison.
The Wednesday sentencing caps a five-year legal saga that led to two mistrials. A 2008 trial was halted after the Los Angeles Times reported Alex Kozinski, chief judge of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, had sexually explicit material on a personal website.
Kozinski, who presided over the trial, recused himself and was admonished by a special committee of his colleagues.
Isaacs was indicted as part of an effort by a Bush administration task force to crack down on smut in the U.S.
Ira Isaacs, Defecation Porn Shock Artist, Sentenced 4 Years In Prison
Ira Isaacs was sentenced on Wednesday to four years in federal prison for selling defecation pornography.
Looks like someone’s career went down the toilet.
Ira Isaacs, a self-proclaimed “shock artist” notorious for integrating feces-eating into porn, was sentenced on Wednesday to four years in federal prison, three years of supervised release, and a $10,000 fine, LA Weekly reported.
The 61-year-old South Bronx filmmaker was found guilty last April of violating federal obscenity laws by selling pornographic movies featuring “bestiality and extreme fetishes,” according to The Associated Press.
The jury found that his videos were legally obscene, in that they lacked “literary, artistic, political or scientific value.”
One video,The New York Daily News reported, depicted two women having sex with Isaacs while eating feces.
The shock artist, however, maintained that his films were protected under the First Amendment.
“The whole thing was a farce. They put artists on trial for their work. So what if I stepped over the line, artists take risks,” Isaacs told the Daily News.
His lawyer, Roger Diamond, argued that the videos were “way off mainstream porn” but that the First Amendment still protected them. “There are no children involved here,” Diamond said, “and the movies were sold to consenting adults.”
“I feel like I just won the Academy Award. If an artist can offend so many people that he has to go to prison to protect society, that’s really saying something,” Isaacs added.
“Most shock artists dream of this kind of attention, without the prison part.”

Somebody should crap on him and the pig judge. Better yet, have a an animal do it while they get sodomized by a rhino.
Effing disgusting excuses for beings. A waste of oxygen they are.

Dear God I couldn’t read that without cringing.. A Gentile Judge wouldn’t be able to listen to the prosecution without throwing up so no doubt that sick bastard will be dealt with by his coreligionists.. A lenient sentence is on the cards for that disgusting low life you can be sure of that..

He’ll probably get to attend his nieces vampire bat mitzvah before serving a sentence of 8 hrs house arrest.

Another jew who practices ‘art’ by performing grotesque acts.
All the so-called ‘Christian’ churches that support Israel and zionism should get to view Ira Isaacs’s ‘performance art’ at their Sunday brainwashing services.

More alien filth from the same “tribe” that is enabled, tithed, and worshiped by hypocrite “Christians”.

I think the sentence is extreme considering he is jewish. Dogs eat faeces all the time – Do we put them in prison?

Look at this guy IRA; the epitome of sleaze….with his dyed grey hair….and his lawyer, Roger DIAMOND.
I’m surprised there isn’t some Jew named Platinumstein. Why no jews named Copperberg, or aluminumblatt?? Oh, that’s right, those are none-precious metals. Coal is related to diamonds; why no Coalstein?
The Jews are simply grotesque, and they go out of their way to be so. After all, they need to keep their life-blood pumping; anti-Semitism. Where would supremacist Jewry be today without the Holohoax and their ever present and self manufactured “anti-Semitism”?
Bob Dylan has perfectly straight hair, but he perms it to look more Jewish. As if that nose isn’t enough, as he pays homage to Cabala and plays concerts in Israel, unlike many musicians.
Bob Dylan; another blue-eyed Khazar.

@Jake I don’t know how you can compare mans best friend to a Jew .. Seriously there is no comparison.. When a Rabbi says they are of a different DNA they aren’t kidding and what has yet to be established is which Planet they were expelled from to end up on this God forsaken Planet. Mind you i dare say this Earth was a much saner place till those genocidal freaks showed appeared as a curse upon mankind.

No, but ordinary dogs don’t pretend to be : 1) human, 2) “God’s chosen people”.

Zionists always have some alternative under their sleeves. Daniel Pomerantz, a US-Israel dual citizen has announced to launch the Hebrew version of famous men’s sexy magazine Playboy. Like a typical Israel-Firster, Pomerantz too believes that his Israeli porn-filled magazine will help to improve Israel’s international image which has nose-dived since Israel’s 2006 defeat at the hands of Hizballah guerilla fighters. “For me this is an opportunity to show the world the nice side of Israel, the culture here,” he says.

How do you know God is a Jew? Because only a Jew could make another Jew eat shit (Ezekiel) and have the other Jew going around talking about what a great deal he got.
This Ira knew getting the Goy girls to eat crap would render them unclean, hence the satannic ritual.
How do you reconcile Old and New Testaments? Much of the OT regards Baphomet/Moloch worship. The book is corrupted. Also, distrust Paul/Saul. Much of Christianity’s big screwups stem from Paul, The Rapture and so forth.
