Mr Edwards said there was a &#8216;very high&#8217; burden of proof for prosecutors, however.<\/p>\n<p>Elizabeth Geddes, who was a federal prosecutor for more than 15 years, said: &#8216;There&#8217;s certainly an argument that these young men were subjected to potential coercion. I think there are grounds for a prosecutor to open an investigation and look closely at this conduct to determine if a criminal prosecution is warranted.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Mr Jacobson &#8211; the middleman, now aged 70 &#8211; said in a statement through his lawyer that he took offence at the suggestion of &#8216;any coercive, deceptive or forceful behaviour on my part&#8217; and had &#8216;no knowledge of any such conduct by others&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>He said he did not recall making promises of modelling opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Any encounter I had was fully consensual,&#8217; he said. &#8216;Everyone I came into contact with who attended these events went in with their eyes wide open.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Mr Jeffries and Mr Smith declined to comment to the BBC.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>An Abercrombie &amp; Fitch Co spokesperson told MailOnline: &#8216;We are appalled and disgusted by the behavior described in the allegations against Mr. Jeffries, whose employment with Abercrombie &amp; Fitch Co. ended in 2014, nearly ten years ago.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Speaking up and coming forward is not easy, and our thoughts are with those who bravely raised their voices. Since being contacted by the BBC, we have engaged an outside law firm to conduct an independent investigation into the issues raised.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The company\u2019s current executive leadership team and board of directors were not aware of the allegations of sexual misconduct by Mr. Jeffries.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;For close to a decade, a new executive leadership team and refreshed board of directors have successfully transformed our brands and culture into the values-driven organization we are today.
