Mike Jeffries is facing legal trouble.

The former CEO of Abercrombie & Fitch was arrested in Florida Oct. 22 and faces charges of one count of sex-trafficking and 15 counts of interstate prostitution, as seen in court documents obtained by E! News.

According to documents, his partner Matthew Smith of Florida and a third man, James Jacobson of Wisconsin, were also arrested and have likewise been charged with the same counts in connection with the case.  

The filing alleges Jacobson was an employee of Smith and Jeffries' whose job was "to recruit, interview and hire men to perform commercial sex acts for and at the direction of Jeffries and Smith."

The document further claims Jeffries and Smith "relied on their vast financial resources,  and numerous people, including Jacobson and a network of employees, contractors and security professionals, to run a business that was dedicated to fulfilling their sexual desires and ensuring that their international sex trafficking and prostitution business was kept secret, thereby maintaining Jeffries’ powerful reputation."

Jeffries, Smith and Jacobson are also accused within the document of coercing men into participating in these sexual events, and that the atmosphere at the events themselves was similarly coercive.
