Huh? The guy who founded Playboy had nudes of young girls? The guy who lived in a bathrobe & had blow out parties? Who would believe it? Old, saggy, wealthy white guys; is there ever enough for them? And a 60 yr age gap kinda gives it away. 🤮But she's "shocked!"

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley.
