Nude Photos of Berlusconi Offered to Tabloids

Magazines turned down photos of the Italian prime minister’s infamous sex parties because they were taken in his own home.

This guy is untouchable. Silvio Berlusconi has already survived 122 investigations launched against him by the Italian judiciary, and now it appears he has escaped the fallout from the political equivalent of a nuclear bomb. According to Italian media reports, photographers snapped compromising photos of Berlusconi, 74, naked and in the company of women, but couldn’t find a buyer for them because they were taken in the privacy of his own home, something Italian tabloids apparently find unethical. Berlusconi is currently under investigation for allegations that he slept with an underage prostitute at one of his infamous after-dinner sex parties, and then improperly intervened to secure her release from custody after she was arrested for theft.
