Joe Francis Called 'Rapist' and 'Douche' in Lawsuit

Lawsuits were just filed by 4th Street Media -- the publisher behind a new tell-all book written by former GGW employee Ryan Simkin. 4th Street has filed the papers in an effort to stop Francis from blocking the sale of the book titled, "FLASH! Bars, Boobs, and Busted: 5 Years on the Road with Girls Gone Wild."

This book contains some seriously graphic stories about Francis and his friends engaging in drug use and other scandalous activities.

But the lawsuit filed in L.A. County Superior Court -- may be more explosive than the book, they use the following words to describe Francis:

"Convicted felon; child molester; jail-baiting pervert; pimp; sick bastard; sleaze-peddler; tax cheat; rapist; sleazehole; the epitome of a true misogynist, coked-out amoral direct marketer; violent thug; juvenile smut-peddler; sexual predator; one of the 50 most loathsome people in America; and the Douche of the Decade."
