convicted to prison for being a drug mule, whilst in her playmate bio left a very unpleasant impression,an anarcho-communist who wanted a violent revolution and to change the world. So she smuggled lots of heroin to ruin potentially many lives. Glad she got caught.

Your information is incorrect.
She was a pacifist, and never advocated for the violent overthrow of the government.
She was arrested, with he boyfriend, at the Greek/Turkish border and charged with attempting to smuggle Hashish into Greece. She was not a "drug mule", and never had anything to do with heroin. She said she had no idea her boyfriend had hidden hashish in their car, but admitted that she would not have objected had she known.
She spent 8 months in a Greek prison. Her boyfriend escaped before his trial, abandoning her to her fate.
Upon returning to the United States she returned to school, earning a bachelor's degree in design, and master's degrees in architecture and in Urban Planning.
She served, for a while, as City Planner for San Francisco, and opened successful architecture companies in San Francisco, and in New York City. She was a remarkably successful business woman.
She died of cancer in 2006.
American actress Francesca Root Dodson is her daughter.
