Joe Francis accuses prison guards of abusing him

Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis has accused prison guards of abusing him behind bars.

The sex tape entrepreneur, who claims to have bedded Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, and Tara Reid, is in jail awaiting trial on tax evasion charges.

Francis claims guards at the Grady County Law Enforcement Center in Oklahoma, denied him food and blankets and threatened to strap him into a chair naked for 48-hours.

Francis stayed at the prison for a month earlier this year as he was being transferred from Florida to Reno, Nevada.

The allegations were made last month in court papers by his attorney, who was trying to secure him bail, The Oklahoman newspaper claims.

Bosses at the prison have denied the allegations. "Mr. Francis was treated like every inmate that comes through the Grady County Law Enforcement Center," jail administrator Shane Wyatt said.

Francis has become a multi-millionaire through his 'Girls Gone Wild' videos.
