In an effort to rubbish claims of abuse made by an
ex, a millionaire has released a video footage which shows the woman hitting
herself in a rage.
Scott Mitchell, 45, was previously accused by ex,
Mary Hunt, 29, of physical & psychological abuse telling reporters she
suffered a black eye at the hands of the Florida business man. but the video
presented by Mitchell's lawyers seemingly shows Ms Hunt having a meltdown and
beating herself up.
The Florida businessman previously accused Miss Hunt
of stealing $2.1million worth of jewellery from the safe in his massive mansion
following their split last summer.
In response she claims Mitchell gave her black eyes
and bruises before breaking off their wedding in August. But Mitchell's
attorney Todd Foster told FOX 13:
“The explanation for the black eye is now very
different.There is no evidence that he ever beat her. This video now
demonstrates that she is striking herself in the same area of the face and head
that they allege Scott struck her.”
Mitchell’s legal team have now hired a former FBI
forensic expert to study the footage.
Hunt has spoken out about the alleged abuse in the
past.
She told the TV station in June: “There were so many
times when I wanted to give up, but I couldn’t do it anymore and I think about
how much he would have wanted this.”
Earlier this year, Mitchell filed a lawsuit against
Hunt and her parents, The lawsuit is claiming costs to recover stolen items
plus damages for a total of $4million. He claims Hunt's parents helped her hide
his jewels which include 99 three-diamond necklaces, 147 gold rings and 172
loose diamonds.
Mr Mitchell's lawyers also produced CCTV footage
allegedly showing Ms Hunt stealing valuables from his mansion, but Ms Hunt's
lawyers have contested the images, hiring a video expert who suggested the
footage could have been doctored. Ms Hunt's legal team have also released
private security footage, showing Mr Mitchell having an angry meltdown on his
drive way, in an attempt to demonstrate his fiery temperament.
Mitchell and Hunt dated for two years, within the
time, Mitchell claimed he paid for everything, including her mortgage, credit
card debt, health insurance and let her drive his 2015 Mercedes Benz.
