The judge scolded Thor for having “taken advantage” of his victim’s vulnerability and displayed “great preparation” in the incident.

Carter Thor Studio, the acting school run by Thor and his wife, had built a reputation over the years for working with actors like Helen Hunt, Cameron Diaz, Faye Dunaway, Courteney Cox, Drew Carey and Madonna.
