Actress Jeri Ryan accused ex-husband Jack Ryan of insisting she go to
"explicit sex clubs" in New York, New Orleans and Paris during their
marriage -- including "a bizarre club with cages, whips and other
apparatus hanging from the ceiling."

Jack Ryan wanted her to have sex with him while others watched, the
star of "Boston Public" alleged.

The Republican U.S. Senate candidate dismissed his ex-wife's
allegations as "ridiculous accusations" and "smut" that she was
dishing out without concern about how it would make their young son
"feel about his parents or himself."

Those were the key revelations in documents from a 2000 and 2001 child
custody battle that a judge ordered unsealed Monday.

A former investment banker, Jack Ryan declined to revisit the
allegations Monday, saying he stands by his earlier court response.

And Ryan insisted he did not mislead anyone by arguing he was only
trying to protect the couple's 9-year-old son and suggesting the
documents contained nothing embarrassing.

But at least three GOP leaders are fuming over the disclosures, saying
they do not square with what Ryan told them to expect.

State Republican chairman Judy Baar Topinka believes Ryan lied to her
by suggesting the papers contained nothing embarrassing, a source
close to Topinka said.

Former Gov. Jim Edgar was stunned to hear about Jeri Ryan's
allegations after Jack Ryan called Edgar over the weekend to describe
the files, but made no mention of the sex clubs.

Based on that characterization, Edgar told reporters earlier in the
day the files would not likely sink Ryan's campaign.

"Edgar kind of feels like he took this guy at his word and is kind of
stunned it could be different from what he was told," the source said.

And Downstate U.S. Rep. Ray LaHood (R-Ill.) called on Ryan to step
down.

"I think there's no way the people in Illinois will countenance the
type of information and activity he was involved with."
