		</div><p>A former Playboy playmate charged with secretly taking a photo of a woman at a Los Angeles gym and uploading it to Snapchat, accompanied by an offensive comment, has been sentenced to probation and community service, writes Pam Ryan.</p>
<p>Dani Mather pleaded no contest yesterday.</p>
<p>The 30-year-old will be under probation for three years and must complete 30 days of local graffiti clean-up, a court clerk told NBC News.</p>
<p>Mathers was charged in November with one count of invasion of privacy for the July incident, in which the 2015 Playboy Playmate of the Year snapped a photo of a nude 70-year-old woman and posted it to her Snapchat story with the text: <i>&#8220;If I can&#8217;t unsee this then you can&#8217;t either.&#8221;</i></p>
<p>Her attorney, Thomas Mesereau said: <i>&#8220;She really apologises from the bottom of her heart for what happened. She never thought this would come out like this; never intended to hurt anyone.&#8221;</i></p>
<p>Mathers&#8217; post incited critiicism from those who said she was body-shaming the woman.</p>
<p>She deleted the post and apologised, saying that she only meant to send the picture to a friend, rather than share it with her thousands of followers. She said at the time that she took full responsibility for her actions.</p>
<p>Experts said it was one of the first times someone had been criminally charged in connection with body-shaming in a social media post.</p>
<p><i>&#8220;This is a very important case with an extremely forceful message associated with it: That body shaming is not tolerated in our city,&#8221;</i> LA City Attorney Mike Feuer said at a news conference after the plea.</p>

I just wish I could give her a big hug. Hopefully this hasn&#39;t turned her and others off going to the gym. I hope people can learn from this girl&#39;s mistake. It&#39;s time we all supported and uplifted each other &#8211; especially us women! Enough with the hate, body shaming and ridiculing others! ? I&#39;m sure there are many of you who have been body shamed in some way before and I want you to know that it has NOTHING to do with you. If someone can be so nasty and low they obviously have their own issues they haven&#39;t dealt with. I don&#39;t believe that bullying and body shaming should be ignored, we need to stand up to it. IT HAS TO STOP. Actions and words REALLY hurt people and destroys lives. Let&#39;s show love, kindness, acceptance and support &#8211; not hate. X . .</a></p>

<p>The charge carried a maximum penalty of up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.</p>
<p>Feuer said that when he heard about the case he was &#8220;incredulous&#8221; that taking a photo under the circumstances was against the law but distributing it online was not.</p>
<p>He said the state senate recently passed a bill that would make those who share or distribute such photos subject to a fine and restitution to pay for its removal from the internet, and is hopeful the assembley follows suit.</p>
<p>Mathers will also have to pay the victim $60 for a new backpack because she could be recognised by the one featured in the photograph.</p>
<p><i>&#8220;Body-shaming can devastate its subject,&#8221;</i> Feuer said. <i>&#8220;People are mocked, they&#8217;re humiliated and in ways that they can never fully get back.&#8221;</i></p>
