Hugh Hefner Talks About The Alleged Sexual Assult That Occured At The Playboy Mansion

In an exclusive interview with The Today Show, Hugh Hefner says the woman who claims she was raped at the Playboy mansion last week made the story up because her boyfriend was angry she returned home so late. Real nice.

“She invented a story. And that’s the story behind the story,” said Hefner, the founder of the men’s magazine with the distinctive bunny brand.  “There was no sexual assault.”

“A girl who came to the party without her boyfriend had a good time, came home very late to a very upset boyfriend,” Hefner said. “And that’s the story behind the story … I’m sure that a rape did not occur. There’s no question about it.”

The complaint was filed last week by a 22-year-old woman who claimed she had been assaulted at Hefner’s sybaritic playhouse by a 17-year-old male. She said she may have been unconscious when the assault began.

But by week’s end, the woman told police she didn’t want to pursue the complaint, and investigators could not corroborate her charges.
