    DAYLOG (2/2/04 Early)
    Feb. 2nd, 2004-

    (Reuters)- Miss Digital World deletes herself after nude photo appears to press.

    Internet Police today say they found the hard drive space where Aki Ross's Body has been found. Ross, crowned Miss Digital World, disappeared after winning the title, when the controversial website www.akirossnude.com opened up days after her crowning. Police say that members of Ross's development team could not find her anywhere. Police started the investigation moments after members of SquareSoft said she was missing, and was no longer found in the backups.

    Police and authorities found Ross several days later in an abandoned and dilapidated part of an ancient server farm, the victim of an apparent self-inflicted deletion. CSI was dispatched to the server, but said there was little to investigate, as much of her was already overwritten. The lone artifact of her deletion was a READ ME file she left, explaining the pain of her nude renders had caused her, and that she never imagined that something so innocent in the early parts of her film career would come back against her later.

    Aki Ross was four years old. Her film credits include Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within and nothing else. The other cast members of Final Fantasy could not be reached for comment.
