The lawyers of UFC President Dana White are trying to dismiss a lawsuit surrounding an alleged sex tape against Joshua Ramos
According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal UFC, President Dana White filed court papers seeking to dismiss a lawsuit that names him as a sex tape extortion victim. The suit was filed in April by Ernesto Joshua Ramos, who recently served prison time for attempting to extract a businessman. Ramos also named the UFC as a defendant in his lawsuit.
Ernesto Joshua Ramos, 42, served time in federal prison for trying to extort $200,000 from UFC President Dana White, claiming that his live-in girlfriend Spearmint Rhino who is a stripper was involved with Dana White. He had claimed that he has the entire video of Dana White and his girlfriend on his phone as proof. The lawsuit alleges that, in Brazil, the woman used her cellphone to secretly record her and White having sex.
Dana White didn’t pay the Ramos
Ramos met White in his Las Vegas office to make the exchange in money for video, but White had already contacted law enforcement. FBI agents secretly recorded the transaction and Ramos was arrested shortly thereafter. After getting out of the matter, Ramos filed a civil suit against White for reneging on a 2016 agreement they allegedly made before Ramos pleaded guilty. Ramos claims White failed to pay him $450,000 to keep quiet about the case to protect his identity.
Dana White lawyers said that they are trying and hoping that the case will be dismissed. While talking to the Las Vegas Review-Journal they said “Some parties never learn,” White’s lawyers said in court papers filed on Monday evening. After pleading guilty to a felony of attempting to extort defendant Dana White and spending nearly a year in federal prison, plaintiff Joshua Ramos now seeks this court’s assistance to complete what he could not finish the first time — separating Mr. White from a substantial amount of money. Just because Ramos is carrying out the latest scheme through the artifice of a civil lawsuit does not make it any less proper. Fortunately for the court and defendants, Ramos’ attempts at civil extortion are just as inept as his prior criminal endeavors.”
