It’s confusing. John Doe 27 a.k.a. “Jimmy” from the original post (from 2014) would appear not to be the same guy as Johnny Benjamin Napier who (according to a post by Isilder in 2017) was covicted and sentenced in 2015, but as a fugitive was called John Doe 12 by the feds. Most of the old links above are broken now. Now jaguarman9991, a new poster who seems to be familiar with porn videos made by “Jimmy” pops up to ramble about how the videos are old and the girl was 18 and he’s dead now and people are stupid. Doesn’t convince me of anything; why was the FBI after this guy? Why did they claim they had ID’d him and an arrest was soon to happen? Why no follow-up? Some other internet sleuth can perhaps dig into this, I don’t really want to. ---

> [@jaguarman9991](#): > > John doe 27 with the ugly chair went by the name Jim and her name was amber, his xhamster name was tangokid they still have videos up except the one with the chair, I guess cause ppl thought she looked to young when years ago he already mentioned in the comments that she was 18 and they had a kid and dated and broke up years later and she’s in her 30s this was all in the comments now his profile is retired and comments gone and I heard he died after being found not guilty, that’s not the same guy and John napier photos, plus the videos were from the 90s early 2000s they literally have all there other videos up except that 1 video with the checkered chair, they still got the videos of the checkered couch and bedroom so why are ppl so stupid they don’t realize a video is like 20 years old and take one video down and not the others lol these videos were made back in latest 90s or something they’re grown adults now ppl see a video and act like it’s brand new 147 word run-on sentence with five commas and no periods. Kinda impressive. ---

Ok so was Tangokid (aka Jim & Amber) the guy or was it someone else? This is still unclear to me… I love their videos. He’s hung and pervy and obviously kept her coming back. Shame to hear he’s dead ---
