billionaire family will sue son's girlfriend for releasing photos of abuse

[Demovictory9]

You think you're the man but you‘re not': Shocking audio of 'drugged up' heir 'beating his college girlfriend as his billionaire family announces they will SUE her for releasing photos of the abuse'

Melissa Gentz, 22, has shared audio from her alleged attack at the hands of Erick Bretz, 25, who she claims brutally beat her at his Tampa apartment

'You do not accept the man who has more dominance than you ... you think you're the man of the relationship. But you're not, you're a woman,' he screams

Gentz can be heard crying in the audio, which she released along with photos of the alleged bruising caused by her boyfriend of two months

That move prompted Bretz's billionaire family, who own a supermarket chain in Brazil, to say they will sue the college student
Bretz was arrested that night while sleeping at the apartment, and booked on charges of Domestic Battery by Strangulation and Tampering With a Witness

He has entered a not guilty plea and lawyers for the heir did not respond to multiple requests for comment

1. Someone tell me that she has left that goon

and is sheltered somewhere in a safe place.

please

[USALiberal]

2. What would be the basis for suing? nt

[dawg day]

3. It's just an attempt to threaten her further

Good for her to tape and photo it.

[Blue_true]

5. Yeah. She likely will counter sue and win. nt

[a kennedy]

38. Hope Michael Avenatti will take the case......

[gratuitous]

6. They're wealthy and she's not

Meanwhile, the media convene a series of all-star panels to ponder the question of why women don't report their assaults right away. Republicans in Congress ruminate about legislation that would punish women for reporting assaults that don't result in a conviction beyond a reasonable doubt in a jury trial and that survives every conceivable appeal.

Okay, maybe that last sentence isn't 100% factual. Yet.

[dixiegrrrrl]

11. "Indian schoolgirls beaten for resisting boys' sexual advances"

This could be where we end up.

25. She took advantage of that poor boy's affluenza, he's suffering from all this you know

[Neema]

41. Yeah. I hope she doesn't ruin this poor boy's life.

🙄

[still_one]

30. That is what I would like to know. I hope the asshole who did that is in jail

[peggysue2]

4. Any man who does that to a woman deserves . . .

a very long prison sentence.

That being said, Brazil is on the cusp of electing Jair Bolsonaro, a right-wing extremist often referred to as the Tropical Trump.

So, I guess, any outrage is possible. Even smashing a woman's face.

[Separation]

15. Yea, I saw a report on that

He has basically promised to clear-cut the rain forest down there to make more room for soybeans and cattle.

[peggysue2]

37. John Oliver did a withering

report on the man last night. It's as if the entire world is having a nervous breakdown with some of these right-wing goons being installed.

This will not end well.

[lostnfound]

20. Maybe a Scarlet letter "A" for asshole on his forehead

Abuserss getting angry when the abused one exposes what the abuser has done are the worst.

[peggysue2]

36. Ooooo

I like that suggestion!

[TeamPooka]

39. Applied with a branding iron

[LoisB]

7. No wonder he's an asshole with a family like that. Does his daddy beat his

mommy too?

[pecosbob]

8. Given the standing of the family

I doubt she will have any trouble finding someone to represent her.

[SunSeeker]

9. Seems like a pretty obvious SLAPP suit.

Hope she moves to dismiss any such suit and recovers her attorneys fees.

[marble falls]

10. Does he have a law degree? There's got to be a Federal Bench smewhere.

[lunatica]

12. She is paid to have those bruises. She's a professional bruisee

[ProfessorGAC]

13. Man, Soros Really Gets Around!

Some nut will blame him for her release of the photos! I just know it!

[malaise]

14. Well done Melissa

Let him sue. You can't lose.
Exposé these entitled monsters.
Lock him up.

[BigmanPigman]

16. The parents must be related to the fucking moron.

All they can do in their defense is to take the offense and sue, sue, sue. Cowards in bullies' clothing.

[cwydro]

17. Some pictures show the black eye on right side, some on left.

Just picture weirdness?

[jmowreader]

19. Probably just flipping the image in Photoshop

[Whiskeytide]

21. I suspect a couple of them...

... we’re taken in a mirror.

[cwydro]

27. Ok, maybe that makes sense.

It just stood out to me.

[kcr]

44. Mirrors? How do they work?

[ornotna]

31. DailyMail is notorious for that

They frequently post pictures flipped like that.

[firstwife]

18. Pretty sure they have no basis to sue,

but they do have money. As we say in the business, Anybody can sue anyone else for anything. If he knew she was taping, and there is video/audio of both of them, and she releases it, I don’t see how it would not be thrown out of court. But we are in the legal twilight zone nowadays...

[Mendocino]

22. Effluenza

This lawsuit stinks.

[cwydro]

29. I think you meant Affluenza.

But yes.

[PaulX2]

23. Hey Brazil Me Too

Your turn....

[ck4829]

24. Billionaire Boy: "I'm the REAL victim here"

[trueblue2007]

26. @MichaelAvenatti should be her lawyer !!!!!

@MichaelAvenatti YOU SHOULD BE her lawyer. Please help her. Billionaire family will sue son's girlfriend for releasing photos of abuse. his billionaire family announces they will SUE her for releasing photos of the abuse'

[FakeNoose]

34. Great idea - Avenatti would be perfect

Thanks for the opportunity to cue up my favorite Avenatti gif!

[trueblue2007]

45. i sent a tweet to HIM and also posted regular tweet on my feed

[cwydro]

28. Brazil Haas a huge problem with violence against women.

A recent video showed a woman murdered by her husband. It’s sickening.

[Hoyt]

32. He won't get anywhere with that BS. Hope he spends lots of time behind bars.

[dflprincess]

33. "Alleged bruising"????

It might be legally correct to say the "bruising allegedly caused by her boyfriend". But there does not appear to be anything "alleged" about her bruises.

[ProudLib72]

40. Man's violence against woman

Simple statement of fact, but so difficult for the reporters to write it. We should start using the term "alleged" to describe reporters, lawyers, and politicians.

[grantcart]

35. Has Trump apologized to Brazil yet?

A STUDENT has shared photographs of the horrific injuries she endured after her millionaire lover allegedly battered her over a revealing Instagram snap.

Melissa Gentz, 22, an undergraduate student at the University of Southern Florida, had been dating Eric Bretz, 25, for three months before he allegedly beat her on September 23.

Sickening snaps show a large cut across her forehead, the left side of her face completely bloodied, and her bloodshot eyes after the alleged attack.

Melissa claims Bretz became irate after he saw a photo of her wearing a black spaghetti strap top with her hair tied up.

She told police he threw her to the floor, kicked her in the face and wrapped his legs around her throat to cut off her air supply, the Tampa Bay Times reported.

Not real bright of them.
