Former Rep. Katie Hill, D-Calif., filed a lawsuit Tuesday against her ex-husband and several media outlets for distributing "nonconsensual porn," including naked photos of her and a female staffer, which caused a scandal that forced her to resign from Congress last year. KATIE HILL SPEAKS OUT ABOUT SCANDAL, STILL DENIES AFFAIR WITH CONGRESSIONAL STAFFER AFTER RESIGNATIONThe lawsuit alleges that Hill's ex-husband Kenneth Heslep and Mail Media Inc., parent of the Daily Mail, and Salem Media Group Inc., which owns RedState, conspired to and distributed intimate images of her without her consent. As the scandal unfolded last October, the Daily Mail published one photo of what appeared to be Hill, 33, undressed and holding a bong, and another of her kissing the campaign staffer. According to the texts that were shown, Hill wanted to focus on her work and suggested that "political risk" was a factor. Hill is seeking unspecified monetary damages and wants the images permanently removed from the media outlets' websites and any physical copies permanently destroyed.
