Rihanna Photo Leaked

A close-up of Rihanna's face featuring the gruesome results of Chris Brown's alleged assault on her has been leaked on the internet at, where else, TMZ.com.

Those of you who are curious enough can head over there and find it. I looked at it, and then felt oddly ashamed that I had, so I won't post it or link it here.

Apparently I wasn't the only one: Gawker has posted an article about the sites that did run the picture, Rihanna's privacy rights as an abuse victim, and how sites are only exploiting it to get traffic (and, paradoxically, ends with a defense of their own choice to publish the photo).

The real question is who leaked it, as supposedly only the police had access to it. That's resulted in the LAPD embarking on an internal investigation that might (hopefully) result in somebody getting fired.

UPDATE: This article claims TMZ paid $62,500 for the photo.
