nothing happened to them???
In May 1986, authorities discovered she had been underage while making pornographic movies and arrested her, as well as the owners of her movie agency and X-Citement Video, Inc. (See United States v. X-Citement Video.) The ensuing prosecution against the agencies cost the pornographic film and distribution industry millions of dollars, as they were obliged by law to remove hundreds of thousands of her videotapes, films and magazines from store shelves to avoid the risk of prosecution for trafficking in child pornography. (The legality varies with countries: For example, while it is illegal in France to produce a pornographic film involving an actor under 18, the film remains legal.[7])

She caused a spotlight to shine on the porn business, which until then had enjoyed a low public profile. Authorities served search warrants and subpoenas at pornography production, marketing and distribution firms on the east and west coasts.
South and two producers were indicted for sexual exploitation of a minor, and the government tried to build a federal racketeering case against those who knowingly utilized underage talent in their porn productions. They beat the case, although they say they spent more than $1 million doing so.
The Lords videotapes were declared a violation of child pornography laws, and federal government ordered them pulled from circulation and destroyed, costing the porn industry millions of dollars.
The lone criminal conviction was against Rubin Gottesman, owner of X-Citement Video of Van Nuys, Calif., who was convicted of "knowingly" shipping Lords videos in violation of the federal order. Gottesman appealed, arguing that the language of the law was confusing. Ultimately, the United States Supreme Court upheld his conviction in 1994.
