Fashion designer Anand Jon, who presented Ivanka Trump to the fashion world when she was 14, is writing a book from jail, according to Page Six.
Jon, now 40, is in jail for the last seven years without parole. Currently in a prison in California, he is serving a 59 year sentence for rape and a dozen other criminal counts, including committing a lewd act on a child.
â€˜What I did was absolutely immoral, but not illegal. I had a lot of sex, but it was not illegal. Everyone was over 17, except one girl who lied about her age,â€™ he recently told a former acquaintance, according to the report.
He also claimed that he is a victim of police racism. â€˜This was about lifestyle. The police saw a brown-skinned man having sex with white girls,â€™ the report quoted the acquaintance.
In the book he will discuss about dressing Janet Jackson and Mary J. Blige, and how he met Ivanka Trump when she was 14 and became the first designer to put her on the runway.
â€˜Ivanka did five shows for me. Sheâ€™d take the subway to fittings,â€™ Jon said.
His appeal against the sentence is pending with the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and his family hopes that it will overturn the judgment.
The report quoted a recent motion for discovery in Dallas federal court which said, â€˜The Los Angeles jury trial was riddled with the red flags of due process violations, jury tampering and intimidation, racism-xenophobia and many unresolved discovery issues.â€™
The scandal and court hearings began in 2007. In 2008, he was charged with enticing young girls promising them to make them models in exchange for sexual favors.
Prosecutors claimed that some of the victims were minors, and some were even drugged when he made them disrobe and had sex or touched them without consent.
Jonâ€™s victims testified against him and their stories were strikingly similar, according to the New York Daily News. Alexander allegedly baited young women online, took them to his apartment, made them strip, and then either sexually assaulted them or touched them without consent.
Jon, who launched his fashion line in 1999, says his prosecution was about â€œlifestyle,â€ and explains it as â€œthe police saw a brown-skinned man having sex with white girls,â€ according to inquisitor.com
