Miss Nevada, Katie Rees is issuing a correction on the statement released by her
attorney yesterday regarding some photos that were published of her on the internet. That
press release stated that she was 17 years old when the photos were taken. Miss Rees
actual age when the aforementioned photos were taken was 19. Miss Rees acknowledges her
misbehavior as captured in the photos. The pictures were taken years before her
consideration to compete for the title of Miss Nevada.
Katie Rees says, Over the past couple of days I have seen and heard numerous reports
and I feel it is necessary to address the public with the facts. Simply put, these images
were from an isolated incident during my teenage years prior to my consideration to
compete for Miss Nevada. While I take full responsibility for the photographs, I want
everyone to know the truth. This was by no means representative of who I was, who I am, or
who I will become."
