It is clear that the subject is only extortion of a public figure to take money and benefit from his fame
First reported by Mediaite,
Dustin Hice claims Lemon assaulted him in July 2018 at Murf’s
Backstreet Tavern, after Hice had wrapped up a bartending shift at
another bar. But CNN says Hice resorted to filing the lawsuit only after
a failed attempt to extort Lemon.
According to Hice’s complaint,
he came across Lemon while out with friends at the tavern, and offered
to buy Lemon a drink (a “Lemon Drop” to be precise), which the TV
personality declined. Hice says the two men stayed socializing with
their respective groups of friends and had no further interaction until
Mediaite, citing “an associate of Lemon’s,” says Hice asked Lemon for
$1.5 million to keep quiet. Hice also took down his social media
accounts the day he filed the lawsuit, but Mediaite says it found an
Instagram post from January 2017 from what is believed to be Hice’s
account “[showing] him posing in front of CNN’s headquarters in Atlanta
along with the caption: ‘touring the #CNN center today…or as #Trump
would say ‘the home of Fake News’ lol.’”
