A former Playboy playmate Dani Mathers is officially facing jail time for secretly Snapchatting a photo of a naked woman from the locker room at LA Fitness.
Asked if Ms Mathers would be testifying at her trial, her lawyer responded, “Oh yeah, definitely”.
Last summer, Ms Mathers posted the photo of a naked, 70-year-old woman to her public Snapchat story with the caption "If I can't unsee this then you can't either”.
Prosecutors charged her with misdemeanour invasion of privacy.
“She should face the consequences of her cruel and criminal act," the Los Angeles City attorney's office said at the time.
Under California law, it is illegal to secretly photograph another identifiable person in a changing room without their consent.
Charges can result in up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.
Ms Mathers previously attempted to avoid jail time by offering to apologise to the victim, undergo counselling, and take an anti-bullying course.
The judge declined, citing lack of remorse.
Ms Mathers was also banned from all LA Fitness gyms.
Judge Gustavo Sztraicher scheduled her trial for 26 May.
