A few years prior to winning the Miss America crown, she
was given a drug-spiked drink, at a wine-&-cheese party,
by a man who was both a photographer and who she
had once considered to be a friend that she could trust.
Once she had become affected by the influence of this
potentially deadly chemical combination (which was
of both the alcohol and the date-rape drug placed
in it), he removed her clothing and also placed her
in compromising poses with another person
(who, by the way, had not been drugged).
Then (long after she discovered what he had done,
told him it offended and upset her; and he promised
he had destroyed both the photos and negatives) he
waited until she had won the Miss America crown and
then sold the photos to a seedy men's magazine
(which published them) against her will or consent.
Despite the fact that she had worn the crown and the title
with dignity, respect and morality from the moment that
she won the contest, a few weeks after the photos were
published -- (against all legal attempts by Ms. Williams to
prevent the release of the photos of her being exploited
and violated while chemically-induced) -- the Miss America
organization removed her crown just a couple of months
before she would have finished out her successful reign
because, per the organization, they felt that 'she' was
the one who had committed an offense against their
organization simply by participating in the competition.
The irony of the entire matter is that not only was Williams career
in show business NOT destroyed by (what was, back then, seen as)
a "huge, shameless scandal", but, due to her amazing talent, ethics
and good will -- she has actually emerged (like a phoenix rising from
it's ashes) as THE most successful of any person ever chosen for the
title of Miss America in the entire history of the organization's run.
