Khan Tusion is a name most people in porn today don’t know, and trust me when I say that’s a good thing. He was a low-end producer who put out nearly 100 titles in the early 2000s, such as Piss Mops, Throat Fuck Gangbang, White Chicks Licking Black Crack, Meat Holes,  and Butt Licking Anal Whores … just to name a few.

He was a well-known misogynistic jackass that many female performers hated to have to work with.

Khan Tusion’s films were infamous for female performers getting beaten, spat upon, stepped on, and even choked into unconsciousness. Taglines referred to the women he worked with as “jizzmops” and “the nastiest whores who love to be treated like worthless pieces of meat.”

According to porn stars interviewed for the documentary, titled Pariah after Khan Tusion’s production company, the cruelty, and degradation that came from the man behind the camera wasn’t an act.

Outside of the porn world, he was known as  Mark Handel, where he worked as a “real estate developer” and con man.

This former porn producer now faces federal fraud and money laundering charges.  If convicted of all charges, Handel would face a statutory maximum sentence of 120 years in federal prison.

According to the indictment, Handel worked as a developer of commercial and residential real estate for more than 30 years. In April 2015, Handel filed a chapter 11 petition in United States Bankruptcy Court in Woodland Hills and subsequently made a series of false statements to avoid debts exceeding $10 million that he owed to creditors, including California Bank and Trust (CBT), the indictment alleges.

The indictment further alleges that Handel formed multiple corporations and limited liability companies to conceal his income and his involvement in real estate development projects. Handel purposely failed to put his name on the corporations and entities in order to conceal and disguise his business activities and to deceive his creditors, the indictment alleges. Handel allegedly used his wife – who had no real estate business experience – and others as nominee partners, managers, and owners of the LLCs that he, in fact, controlled.

One such corporation – DTMM, which Handel told his friends and business associates stood for “Don’t Touch My Money” – allegedly was used by Handel to conceal the proceeds of his unlawful activity. Handel caused DTMM to be registered in his wife’s name, but he used the corporation for all his personal expenses, according to the indictment.

On his initial and amended bankruptcy petitions, as well as during a creditors’ hearing and at other proceedings, Handel willfully made materially false statements under penalty of perjury, the indictment alleges.

Throughout the bankruptcy case, Handel allegedly lied by stating that he was unemployed, had been unemployed for many years, and had no business or income. In reality, Handel maintained a financial interest in properties in Los Angeles, Orange, and Alameda counties, and, from 2008 to 2016, he received $4,644,529 in income as “kickbacks” on an easement as part of a real estate deal, according to the indictment.
