Former Playmate Dani Mathers pleaded not guilty on Monday to a misdemeanor count of invasion of privacy for surreptitiously taking a photo of a naked woman in her gym locker room and posting it on social media.
In July, Mathers posted to Snapchat the woman’s nude photo, along with the caption, “If you can’t un-see this, I can’t either.” She also included a selfie in the Snapchat in which she covered her mouth as if to stifle shock or a giggle.
Mathers was initially the target of outrage via social media over “body shaming,” but the backlash soon turned legal as well.
