Potentate Power: Sultan Swats Sex Slave Suit

Submit a Tip!

The Boys from Brunei really know how to party. According to a lawsuit filed by ex-Miss USA Shannon Marketic, portions of which are reproduced here, that country's billionaire rulers regularly import American women for six-week stints as high-paid hookers. Marketic, a devout Christian, claims she was unaware that, in exchange for $127,200, women were expected to serve the Sultan and his rowdy friends. The 27-year-old actress/model initially sued the Los Angeles "talent agency" she says recruited her, as well as the Sultan of Brunei (identified here as Haji Hassanal Bolkiah) and his brother, Prince Jefri. But a federal judge last month ruled that the Sultan, one of the world's richest men, cannot be sued due to the immunity afforded a head of state. Along with portions of the lawsuit, we've also included a Marketic biography and a document describing the financial package offered by the talent agency. (12 pages)
