Jessica Lynch nude photos
Larry Flynt claims to have acquired topless photos of Jessica Lynch from two former soldiers who served with her.
Lynch's new torment erupted the day before Veterans Day - and on the same night she made a dramatic appearance at a Manhattan awards event with fellow rescued POW Shoshana Johnson and pop star Britney Spears.
Lynch, walking in public for the first time since her rescue, used crutches to enter the American Museum of Natural History for Glamour magazine's 2003 salute to the "Women of the Year."
Flynt said he plans to run the photos he says he has in Hustler's February issue, which goes on sale the first week of January.
He claimed they show Lynch topless and cavorting with two men stationed with her at Fort Bliss, Tex., before she shipped off to Iraq last spring.
According to two people who have seen them, the person they identify as Lynch is wearing just jeans in one photo and a blue thong in another.
Private Jessica Lynch nude pics in Hustler? As a professional sleazemonger who usually delights in envelope-pushing bad taste, even I think this is in bad taste.
UPDATE: Larry Flynt now says he's changed his mind and will not publish the photos.
Porn king Larry Flynt, casting himself in the unlikely role of white knight to U.S. Army private Jessica Lynch, said on Tuesday he bought semi-nude photos of the former POW "to keep them out of circulation." [...]
"I purchased them at first with the intention of publishing them, however, I quickly changed my mind and decided simply to keep them out of circulation," Flynt said in a statement. "If Jessica Lynch wants to join the army and see the world, and if she wants to have a good time while she's at it, I'm not here to judge her."
