Joe Francis sues Jayde Nicole for threatening to kill him

wenn5370746

Remember back in August when King Douche Joe Francis publicly beat Playmate Jayde Nicole in a club? Radar has video of the incident which is very upsetting to watch, and shows Joe coming up to Jayde from behind, viciously yanking her back by the hair, punching her in the face, then throwing her to the ground and kicking and stomping her. His reason for the from-behind attack? She threw a drink at him. And get this: now Joe is suing Nicole.

Responding to media reports that Joe Francis will sue Jayde Nicole and Brody Jenner over a nightclub melee, Nicole’s attorney Ron Richards tells RadarOnline.com exclusively that the move is just another example of the Girls Gone Wild Founder’s need for retaliation.

“We will be responding with an Anti-SLAPP motion as this lawsuit is retaliation for her exercising her right to file a police report for being a victim of a crime,” Richards said. “Joe Francis can try and bully her all he wants but she won’t capitulate.” Anti-SLAPP lawsuits attempt to protect the rights of persons who engage in protected speech and aim to shield such persons from forces who may try to intimidate them into silence.

Richards says Nicole was exercising her free speech by filing a police report. Nicole claims Francis pulled her hair and knocked her to the ground while Francis claims Nicole threatened to kill him. He has also said that he was fearful for his life, claiming he saw Nicole reach for a bottle which he believed she was going to hit him with.

RadarOnline.com exclusively obtained the disturbing surveillance video from the incident at Guys & Dolls. Nicole does not reach for an object at any time during the tape.

Jayde logically filed suit against Joe back in September. Joe Francis’ criminal history is so long, sordid, and complicated that I can’t even begin to get into it. It seems unreal that this guy isn’t locked up. The worst part of this case is that the D.A. has decided not to file charges against Joe. Or Jayde, since she threw the drink at him. In fact, the D.A. seems to think it was just an eye for an eye, since he claims Jayde threw the drink “without provocation.” Which apparently in the City of Los Angeles makes it okay to beat the living sh*t out of someone. Because the act of throwing a drink – while technically an assault – is on par with a vicious beatdown. Bravo L.A.

    Jayde Nicole is such a non-person to me. But I really can’t think of anyone I consider to be a bigger douche than Joe Francis. Nothing’s going to come out of any of this.

  2. Snurby says:

    She looks like a cross-eyed hooker.

  3. jess says:

    how old is she? and why does she have such a bad eye job?

  4. GatsbyGal says:

    Wow, her face looks 10 kinds of messed up. Weird.

    But still, can someone please just “accidentally” hit Joe Francis with their car already? The world would be so much brighter without him.

  5. Firestarter says:

    I could care less about who is suing who, my main concern is, how in the hell did she make it to be Playmate of the Year? She is just ugly and all kinds of freaky looking, IMO.

  6. Snarf says:

    Not to get too grade school here, but I saw the video too and she did indeed “start” it. Frankly, they should both be thrown in the slammer for good measure. As for his lawsuit against her, it’s just a ploy to get her to call off her dogs (lawyers). Trust.

  7. Trillion says:

    Where the hell does this girl think she’s gonna pull her face to when she hits 39?

  8. Beth says:

    Joe really needs to growup. Although Jayde shouldn’t have thrown the drink I don’t see how that justifies being punched and kicked.

  9. LolaBella says:

    @Firestarter, ITA she is ugly and there is obviously some sort of wonk-eyed situation going on.

    In other news Joe Francis is a uber-douche.

  10. WTF?!? says:

    Nice lips, Jayde.
    She’s a total fug, looks like Teri Hatcher’s “challenged” younger sister. She needs to wear shorts that don’t feature her ass hanging out the bottom.
    And underwear.
    But Beth, if you watch the video, she also slapped him across the face. His actions were hugely inappropriate, but she laid her hands (and drink) on him first.
    After all this dies down, they’ll probably end up dating.

  11. Cat says:

    Thank you Beth! His method of revenge was cruel and uncalled for; hers was mean but silly and harmless. Wet head= hair pulling and beating? If someone dents your car and you shoot them, is that legal and proper retaliation? Or is is Rihanna’s fault for hitting Chris Brown then having the crap beat out of her? No! There’s such a thing as too much revenge. Why the heck can’t we punish both for their respective crimes and be done with it?
    That being said I can’t say I like her either. She looks like a jacked up Teri Hatcher.

  12. RAMONA says:

    Has anyone noticed the similarity between Jayde and the Kardashian sisters??

    HMMM…makes you wonder what Brody Jenner is thinking….

  13. Brandy M says:

    I’m sorry but this girl is just beyond nasty.

  14. YoMomma says:

    I do not like Joe Francis. I would like to see someone punch him in his mouth and knock out all of his fake dental work. No one should have teeth that perfect.

  15. crash2GO2 says:

    So her face is a bit asymetrical. That’s not what they are looking at in Playboy anyway.

    I can’t believe the DA is not filing charges. That video is extremely disturbing to watch. She pours a shot glass on his shoulder and he responds by ripping her from her seat by the hair and throwing her to the floor, then punching her in the face.

  16. la chica says:

    what’s wrong with her face? did Joe Francis cause this when he dragged her hair? did he pull too much on one side?

  17. Melanie says:

    I saw him compare himself to Gandhi when talking about one of his stays in jail. He’s an uber d bag.

  18. auntie git says:

    Someone needs to put a bullet in Joe Francis’ head.

  19. Sigh. says:

    First glance, thought it was Teri Hatcher.

    Which could be a compliment to Hatcher on “youthful” looks, but alas, no, it is a total dig on this broad looking hella old.

  20. Lantana says:

    Who wants to put Joe Francis, Jon Gosselin, Joe Jackson, Michael Lohan and Roman Polanski in a mini van and push it off a cliff?

  21. Praise St. Angie! says:

    Joe Francis is going to piss off the wrong person one day and end up dead in an alley.

    he’s been such a douchey jerk to so many people, I’m actually surprised it hasn’t happened yet.

  22. Firestarter says:

    @Lantana-I DO, I DO, and could we add Balloon boys parents too?

  23. Icecat says:

    Well I was going to comment on her face and what the eff happened to it.. But you all beat me to it so…

    I concur with EVERYONES comments here!!

  24. TaylorB says:

    Setting aside for a moment this pigs stomach turning personality, considering what Joe Francis does for a living I would think he should be used to women ‘threatening’ his life on a daily basis. There isn’t enough Brasso on the planet to polish the turd that is Joe Francis.

  25. connie says:

    i realize its been said but i have to agree with everyone, she looks jacked!

  26. Lantana says:

    Firestarter – Why yes! Balloon boy’s parents! I am so glad I said it was a mini van 😉

  27. jule says:

    I will get the minivan!!!

  28. original kate says:

    she should sue the surgeon who did that to her face, along with joe francis.

  29. JANE says:

    ARREST THAT CREEP!

  30. SARAH says:

    Something about her face just isnt right…heck, everything about her just doesnt seem right at all!
