Its been three decades since the world found out about the 15 minutes she spent in a Florida hotel room with televangelist Jim Bakker. But Jessica Hahn says its only been in the last two years that shes finally confronted her anger about what happened, and how its affected the rest of her life.
She says shes angry at Bakker, founder of the onetime PTL empire near Charlotte, for using his power and his image as a man of God to manipulate her, then a 21-year-old church secretary, into having sex.
He just believed that everybody should serve him because he was serving God, she said of Bakker.
Shes also angry at herself for being in the hotel room. And for reacting to this experience and the sudden media glare by making maybe not the best choices over the years that followed including posing nude three times in Playboy.
