Kano: An American and His Harem

  • Entertainment

Description:

In a resort-like compound in rural Negros Occidental, a decorated Vietnam vet named Victor Pearson lived like a king. He built a harem of women, from ages 11-35, threw lavish, sexually charged parties for powerful men in the area. In 2001, the compound was raided and he was put in prison for rape. In prison, he married five of the women who testified against him, and they all live in an apartment five minutes away from the jail.
