HOLLYWOOD - Girls Gone Wild creator Joe Francis was arrested at Panama City Airport in Florida in the early hours of this morning.
Francis, who created the best-selling Girls Gone Wild DVD and video series, was taken into custody at 6:30 a.m. local time on a warrant seeking his arrest for contempt of court.
District Judge Richard Smoak ordered his arrest last week, saying the 34-year-old should be jailed until he agrees to participate in mediation talks aimed at ending a four-year-old legal battle with seven underage women, who sued the Girls Gone Wild boss after he filmed them in sexual situations.
Francis stormed out of a court hearing in March and failed to attend an emergency court hearing last Wednesday.
