I was only in a room with... The thing is, when the judge heard this, he upped the tension.

The headline was, Judge Tells Joe Francis Settle or Jail. And that right there told everybody else in the nation that this judge is very sympathetic.

Ultimately, what landed him in jail was his attitude, the fact that he just could not reel himself in and be respectful.

Well, I've been in jail for eight months now, and I haven't been convicted of a single crime.

No one, Bubba, gets held without bail in this country. Lindsay Lohan gets charged with cocaine twice, walks in and out of the friggin' facility in a day. You know, Bill Spector,

Well, but it kind of seems that way, but not really. It's all from this town. Like, every problem I've ever had, other than the tax issue, every single problem has come out of one incident in 2003. What these guys did in Panama City, come on, man. You know Bay County, Florida is a scary place, Bubba. Come on.

No, I'm talking, look, they belly chained me, handcuffed me, and shackled me naked in the shower, okay? I'm in for civil contempt of court, okay? They housed me in a murder wing in a solitary cell. They put a street lamp over me 24 hours a day. They won't give me toilet paper. They wouldn't give me prescription medication. They, you know, would deny me food.

I mean, he was constant, constant, like, torturing me.

Well, my take, I thought I was going to die. I mean, that night I really thought I was going to die. I mean, look, I'm not a homophobic guy, so it didn't bother me, but you could clearly see there was a gun on my head.

I sit in a cell every night. I wake up and I scream. I'm like, I haven't done anything. I mean, these people are just getting off on destroying my life.

I am 100 percent innocent of anything that I just pled to.

I don't understand it. I mean, Elliot Spitzer gets to have sex with her for four grand, and I gotta pay 10 million because we shot some naked pictures? If a girl's a slut, I mean, she should be abused.

So the first time that I actually encountered Joe Francis, we were waiting for an elevator at the federal courthouse. His first words were, you know this is all bullshit, right?

The actual last thing that I've ever heard from Joe Francis was he texted me and he said that he had read the book. It was awful. He was going to sue me and he hoped that I died young.

If somebody wants to abuse the federal court system and file a frivolous lawsuit, I'll have some fun with it. I have absolutely nothing to lose. My lawyers are all full time. It's like, you know, who cares?

They made me fill out a questionnaire where I had to check off what kind of car I had. I was like, is there a box to check for a plane?

Mr. Mayor, we are not doing anything illegal. My cameraman and myself will not be pushed around by a local tyrant or a city police who barely won an election by 90 votes.

You know, it's good to be you, my friend. Now, real quick, I just mentioned in Panama City, they tried to shut you down, but you did not let that happen. No way. We're coming from Panama City tonight. And you know what? They can come arrest us. We don't care. Come get us. Girls will be naked in Panama City tonight.

And these girls here in Panama City Beach are going wilder by the minute. Sweetheart, what's your name, sweetie? I'm Gerilyn. Gerilyn, you know what? We're in Panama City. We're in Florida. This is Girls Gone Wild. Let me see you girls do something wild.

A lot of guys aren't turned on by nasty sex chicks with tattoos and piercings, and they're not turned on by the airbrushed, unattainable Playboy girls either. What we offer are girls you can touch. You can touch our girls.

Let's just say you're a normal guy. You come here, you walk up to three girls, and these girls are probably not going to talk to you. They're probably not going to give you their number, and you're definitely not going to get to see their breasts. Not one guy who goes up to those girls is ever going to get to see their breasts. Maybe they'll get a phone number, but they're not going to get that.

Encore: The Rise and Fall of Girls Gone Wild | Part 1
And we will get that for them. We fulfill that fantasy that guys have that they could just literally go up to a woman and make them show them their breasts.

Yeah, it's for real. Do any of you girls want a t-shirt? So that's the play.

Hello? I said, hey, I'm from Rolling Stone. I want to come and be with you when you record Girls Gone Wild. I want to see how you do it. Why don't you come down to Florida?
