Take a guess, what would such an artist do with a part-time job?

The Transnational Sex Slavery Trade Behind Yoga Schools Hidden human trafficking organization buried deep in Argentina. The organization
has been running a yoga school since the 1990s, attracting young women from all over the world who want to exercise and self-cultivation to sign up for classes. The
school was founded at the time of the fitness trend in Europe and the United States. The brand even set up branch schools in Chicago, New York and Las Vegas in the United States.
However, under the mask of a yoga school, here is a half-pyramid, half-cult, human trafficking, sexual exploitation group controlled by a criminal organization. The school's founder, Percowicz, was at the center of the criminal organization. After
enters the "yoga school", the criminal organization will force the students to sell their bodies in exchange for money to support the organization. According to official investigations, at least seven underage girls and girls were included in the organization and forced into prostitution.
Of course, no one would agree to such an unreasonable request in the first place. So the group started "closed training" as soon as the girls joined the school.
Their money, passports and electronic devices were forcibly confiscated. The trainees cut ties with family and friends for months and could barely communicate with the outside world. During this time, the organization will brainwash and mind control the trainees. If
still refuses to comply, members of the criminal organization will forcefully take nude photos and private videos of the students, threatening to disclose these materials.
In this search, the police found $1 million in cash, gold bars, silver coins, as well as confiscated money, mobile phones, computers, and pornographic videos used to threaten the students in only some branches in Argentina. .
In addition to being mind-controlled, these girls are also given "sleep therapy". In this therapy, members of the group will give victims psychotropic drugs, making them sleepy for many days, lethargic and sluggish, and better manipulated. The women victims of
come from many countries, with the exception of Argentina, the majority of victims in the United States. Clients simply tell members of the criminal organization in which country and when they wish to have sex with these women, and they are sent overnight to places like the US, Argentina, Uruguay, etc., at the "client's" disposal.
is like an MLM organization, every school has thugs, and escaping at will may result in death or injury.
There is only one way for these women to escape exploitation - to develop offline like a pyramid scheme. There are 7 levels in the organization, and you can only get rid of exploitation when you reach the top of the pyramid. However, to rise to the top, one mustIt must be approved by the founder of the organization, Percowicz, and if you want to get this consent, you have to have a relationship with him.
Argentine officials say the group's main source of income is human trafficking and the sex slave trade, and the girls who are defrauded can earn them $500,000 a month in black money. They will launder the black money through the real estate business and charitable organization business of the organization. Percowicz, the boss of the
organization, has more ambitions than this. He not only wants to do transnational human trafficking, but also has celebrities to speak for his criminal behavior. He offered to send the victim girls to many celebrities to help promote his criminal organization.
According to the police, there are many famous names in the client list, and if the case is successfully prosecuted, the names of all celebrities will be made public.
And at present, the superstar most associated with the organization that the media has grasped is Domingo.
celebrity participation, superstar endorsement
In the phone recording obtained by the police, two successful classical musicians became the key figures in Ladomingo's involvement.
One of them, pianist Susana Mendelievich, told another companion that she would meet Domingo in a few hours and would pull him into an event organized by Domingo as a spokesperson to attract fans to join. organize.
It is reported that Domingo and the pianist, who appears to be at the top of the organization, have had an intersection for many years. Domingo also performed with members of various criminal organizations during 's show in Buenos Aires. Three of the female members of
even performed the day's finale solo, while another soprano, who sang Domingo's backing that day, is now considered one of the criminal organization's fugitives and is wanted.
Mariano, another world-renowned oboe player with Domingo's accompaniment in the 1990s, has also been arrested in connection with the case.
and the violinist Rubén González (the principal of many large orchestras in the United States, violin educator), not only a member of the organization, but also served as the "principal" to establish a yoga school branch in Argentina to expand the territory of human trafficking.
As for why Domingo let so many members of international criminal organizations appear in his performances, the police wiretap recordings give part of the answer.
In a recording, Domingo talks to Mendelievich about a secret meeting, and Mendelievich says she had a way to bypass security and get into his hotel room after the show. After
hung up, Mendelievich immediately reported to the group's founder, Percowicz: "He called me, the deal was arranged, and I'm going to sleep in his room tonight, undetected."
She also It was mentioned in the phone calls with others that she and Domingo met many times at their New York home. It is almost certain that Mendelievich used the relationship with Domingo as a bargaining chip to slowly send her criminal organization to classical art. Hall, expand the influence of the organization.
But he is not a member of the organization, and since it is not illegal to visit prostitutes in Argentina, he will not be prosecuted for the above content for the time being. But whether he has a deeper interest in the organization remains to be verified.
It's hard to imagine that an international criminal organization that imprisoned victims as sex slaves could be packaged so decently, even "elegantly".
At present, 19 members of the organization have been arrested, and 7 principals are still at large. However, Domingo did not take a stand on this matter, as he did before.
The "national treasure"
, who was accused of sexual assault by 20 women, is actually not surprised by Domingo's behavior. Since 2019, more than 20 women in classical music have filed sexual assault and harassment allegations against Domingo.
The Los Angeles Opera staff, who was in charge of Domingo, revealed that everyone in the theater knows a rumor: Never be in the same room with Domingo, and don't take the elevator alone with him, otherwise you may be targeted.
Domingo often strikes up young girls for "providing career planning and singing technical advice." Soprano Luz de Alba reveals how Domingo used her status to ask her to go alone over the yearshis apartment and molested her.
If she doesn't agree, Domingo will use her role as theater director to put them, female singers, out of their jobs.
Luz de Alba said that Domingo's wife was even an accomplice, and would deliberately lure away the agents of the targeted women, leaving them alone with Domingo.
Another performer was touched by Domingo in the dressing room while working at the Washington Theater. Other accusers also mentioned that they had their skirts lifted, their legs touched, and they were forcibly kissed in locker rooms, hotels, and dinner parties. Domingo also frequently harassed the women with late-night phone calls. After
was charged, Domingo pretended not to see it at first, and asked his spokesman to come out and deny all the allegations.
However, things became more and more serious, leading the opera house where he worked to set up an investigation team to investigate it, and the final result was that it was basically true.
However, Domingo just apologised and resigned from the opera house.
Although he has completely withdrawn from the US market, in Europe, where the consumer group of classical music is wider, the tour has not been delayed at all. Today, the news of Domingo's involvement in an international criminal organization has broken out, and it has not even caused a splash in mainstream public opinion.
We can also see that the abuse of power to exploit people who are weaker than oneself occurs in almost all walks of life, even in the classical music circle that looks fresh and refined, even the most famous artists in the world, if they can't Controlling your evil desires will not escape the day when the "collapsed house" falls to the altar.
So why did he step into the abyss step by step, act recklessly and without cover?
From February 25, 2020, Domingo publicly apologized to all the female victims who accused him of sexual harassment, apologized for having hurt them, and expressed his willingness to take full responsibility.
And in August 2020, he received the 2020 Austrian Musical Theatre Award for Lifetime Achievement. Can we boldly guess that in some circles, some unspeakable absurdity is the norm, and no one cares anymore.
She molested women, he was an artist.
he rapes women, he is an artist.
He assists transnational organizations in human trafficking, he is an artist.
is a genuine artist and a real scumbag.
