NZXescorts, banned company director and Truth Weekender Ltd

June 19, 2011 by SPCS Leave a Comment

On 5 June 2011 the NZ Herald reported that banned company director Steve Crow – convicted and sentenced in the Auckland District Court on 24 May 2011 for breaching his four year banning order –  is now promoting a new web-based business: an escort agency (prostitution) – NZXescorts (Crow was sentenced and fined $5,000 plus court costs. He changed his plea to “guilty” after initially pleading “not guilty”).

However, the NZ Herald report did not note the fact that the NZXescorts website domain name, first registered on  21 March 2011, was listed by Crow’s close business associate and company director Dermott Malley, as being owned by a defunct company – Truth Publications Ltd  – a company which was struck off the Register of companies one month earlier – on 25 February 2011.  It was actually put into liquidation on 21 October 2009 and the auditor’s report showed it owed over $600,000 to creditors.  The registrant’s email was incorrectly recorded as dermott@truth.co.nz – (A defunct email – no longer valid – which Crow’s associate Dermott Malley used while he was a director of the now failed company).

The Domain Name Commission (DNC) was alerted to these errors by an alert NZ Herald reader who copied his correspondence to to the Registrar of Companies, whose decision last year had led to Mr Crow being banned as a director for four years – effective from 16 April 2010 .

Following notification of the errors, the DNC contacted Mr Dermott Malley and subsequently the registrant’s identity for NZXescorts was changed on 16 June 2011 to “Truth Weekender Limited”. In addition the registrant’s contact email was upgraded/corrected to dermott@truthweekender.co.nz (Dermott Malley, along with John Andrew Pin, is currently one of the two directors of Truth Weekender Limited.).

The association between “Porn King” Steve Crow and Truth Weekender Ltd, which owns the domain name of the NZXescorts business, is abundantly clear.

The NZ Herald article points out that Mr Crow intends to use his forthcoming “Boobs on Bikes” Auckland event to promote the new on-line escort business. [This will assist Mr Malley and his co-director John Andrew Pin, to promote their NZXescorts agency that is supported through The Truth Weekender].

The NZXescorts website states that the business is “part owned by Truth Weekend Limited, Skin Magazine, NZX Magazine, Erotica Lifestyles Expo and Vixen Direct”.  The latter three hardcore porn businesses are closely asociated with banned company director Mr Steve Crow while the first two Adult ‘entertainment’ businesses are closely linked to Mr Dermott Malley.

The NZXescorts website states: “… the opportunity [for prostitutes] to advertise not just here but also in New Zealand’s only dedicated weekly adult entertainment guide Truth Weekender/Skin Magazine”.

The close business associations between banned director Steve Crow and Dermott Malley in the porn industry/escort agency industry is very transparent on the public record.

The sex industry “skinescorts” agency website is owned by Multimedia Solutions Limited – a company directed by Dermott Malley, Matthew Horton and John Andrew Pin (All three were directors of the now defunct company  Truth Publications Limited). Skin Magazine is part of Truth Weekender.

Ministry targets porn mogul – Herald on Sunday

September 19, 2010 by SPCS Leave a Comment

By David Fisher and Frances Morton. Herald on Sunday Sept. 19, 2010

Steve Crow says he will fight a government inquiry into a possible breach of a management ban following four collapsed businesses.

When Steve Crow embarked on building a homegrown porn empire he vowed he would never lock himself away in a dark room with a fake name. It is this willingness to put his “head above the parapet”, he claims, that has got him into trouble.

On April 16, after the collapse of four of his companies, Crow was banned from managing any business for four years. He was forced to resign his directorships and brought in brother David to run the companies. Crow continued to work in the office as a “consultant”.

Now, the Herald on Sunday has learned the Ministry of Economic Development is looking into whether he has breached the management ban. Anyone convicted for such a breach can face up to five years in jail and fines of up to $200,000.

Crow is fighting back. He’s considering seeking a judicial review and suing the ministry for discrimination. It is the culmination of a lifelong battle with the establishment.

Porn king Steve Crow’s assets and bankruptcy considerations

August 26, 2010 by SPCS Leave a Comment

PORN KING’S ASSETS. The Sydney Morning Herald 26 August 2010

The Kiwi porn baron Steve Crow has said he would consider bankruptcy in a bid to get a major Australian supplier of sex toys and DVDs off his back. Crow, who defended himself in the High Court in Auckland yesterday is challenging a judgment of $39,000 owed to Calvista Australia. Calvista says it’s owed for goods supplied to Crow’s companies in New Zealand. Crow said Calvista had revived an old Vixen Direct account – one of his companies – after no dealings with him for six years. The Dominion Post reports that Crow, who is behind the annual Boobs on Bikes parade and Erotica Expo, was this year banned from directing or managing a company for four years. ”I do not have $39,000 in a bank account. I have assets many, many times that,” Crow said. ”The only issue is if I’m unsuccessful in this appeal … I would have to liquidate assets. The other choice is to bankrupt myself.”

Steve Crow, banned company director, promotes porn sleaze on city streets

August 6, 2010 by SPCS Leave a Comment

On Wednesday 11th August at 12.30 pm banned company director Steve Crow and Miss Erotica 2010 will be heading a parade of scorpion tanks, motorcycles with bare-breasted pillions and vehicles down Queen Street Auckland – in order to promote Crow’s failing hardcore pornography empire. Eden Digital Ltd directed by John Malcolm Carr, a San Antonio Texas based CPA, is the business entity linked to the parade of tawdry titillation that promotes a forthcoming three day event – Erotica Lifestyles Expo – featuring a collection of imported US-based porn stars, sex toys and lewd acts. On Thursday 12th August at 12.30 pm the same boringly predictable parade will head through Hamilton city streets.

Steve Crow is intending to hand out $250,000 worth of free vouchers to those attending the porn parades, so they can purchase hard core pornography DVDs marketed by his failing business Vixen Direct. [Read more…]
