in Scandals by

ht_mike_sorrentino_101011_mnLooks like his 15 minutes of fame is being extended but for all the wrong reasons. Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino of Jersey Shore fame has been indicted for alleged tax invasion. For those not familiar, Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino was a reality tv star on the MTV show The Jersey Shore. He was the resident meathead who went to the gym and started drama with all this other cast mates. It seems like the drama didn’t end once the show ended, Mike Sorrentino’s troubles keep on coming.

The Jersey Shore alum and his brother Marc Sorrentino are up on charges of filing false returns and one count of conspiracy. This is not the first legal charges brought against both Mike and Marc. The 34-year-old and his brother Marc Sorrentino were originally indicted in September 2014 for tax offenses and conspiring to defraud the United States after allegedly failing to properly pay taxes on $8.9 million in income. This last week, both brothers were indicted on additional charges. The new charges included tax evasion, structuring and falsifying records, as announced by Acting U.S. Attorney William E. Fitzpatrick for the District of New Jersey and Acting Deputy Assistant Attorney General Stuart M. Goldberg of the Justice Department’s Tax Division.

Mike’s attorney has made a statement for his client expressing his client’s innocence. “Michael Sorrentino will enter a not guilty plea on April 17, 2017, and will vigorously contest the allegations in court,” Sorrentino’s lawyer, Henry E. Klingeman, said in a statement to PEOPLE. An arraignment on the indictment is scheduled for April 17 in Newark federal court.

This is not a surprise to those who have been following the The Situation’s legal drama. He has been in and out of trouble for years now since his rise to reality tv fame.  If the brothers are convicted on all charges he could end up in prison for up to 15 years, while brother Marc could do 20, plus restitution and supervision after their release. It could take years before the final outcome is determined but we will be following his latest legal drama and update when we have any news!

 

Nathan Griffith Claims that Ex-Jessica Henry is to Blame for Fight that Lead to his Arrest

in Scandals by

nathan-griffith-jessica-henryImmediately following his release from jail, Nathan has now given his side of what happened that night and it conveniently doesn’t mention anything about him choking her.  He was arrested for domestic violence last week for allegedly choking Jessica but he claims it didn’t happen the way she and her roommate claim it did.

For anyone that missed it, Nathan was arrested for pinning her to the bed and choking her during a heated argument. Nathan since has been released from jail and tried to explain what he claims happened that night. In an exclusive interview with The Real Mr Housewife, Nathan pretty much lays all the blame on the tumultuous relationship and the fight that night on Jessica. He says that she started the drama that night and that he was the one who tried to keep everything civil. The fight started at a bar they were both at and he said that, “She started fighting with me and flipping out on stuff. I told her I didn’t want to argue. I’m tired of drama. So, finally, I left the bar because she was causing a scene. I ended up going back to the bar and asked her if she wanted to talk. She said, ’No, get away from me.” So I left. On my drive home, I was thinking that maybe her and I could work something out, so I went to her house.”

He claims that she was not at the house when he arrived so he waited for her to get back so they could “talk” about what happened. He knocked on the door and she let him him. He then explains that they started fighting and yelling more over a text message conversation that Jessica had with a friend about another man. Jessica then started screaming for her roommate Alex. Nathan conveniently left out the part where he choked her. He says that Alex the roommate just laughed at them and them to sleep it off and talk about it in the morning. He said that Jessica started to cry so he left.

Since this interview, Alex the roommate has come out with a rebuttal to his version of the events. Her statement via Facebook:

“I really really hate drama but let me set something straight.

Nate Griffith failed to mention the details of his story. He let himself into our home without consent from anyone when Jess wasn’t home. We keep the doors locked specifically because of his behavior. I guess someone forgot to lock it. He must have also forgotten the part in his story about having Jess pinned to her bed on top of her covering her mouth to keep her from yelling for my help. I asked him to leave and when he did he proceeded to bang on MY bedroom window cursing at me at 3am because I was showing Jess my cell phone as well as the side door windows holding her phone in his hands as incentive for her to go outside and speak with him. And that’s a very very short cleaner summarized version. God this is annoying.”

Well, it’s hard to believe Nathan’s version. This is exactly what happened with Jenelle and although she is no peach, Nathan seems to have no problem putting his hands on women. He is the common denominator in both relationships. Plus, if she left him at the bar, why go to her house? He needs to just stay away from women in general.

 

Teen Mom OG Star, Tyler Baltierra, complains about MTV’s Editing

in Shows by

tyler_baltierra_couples_therapy_sessionTyler Baltierra is currently biting the hand that feeds him and allows him to be rich for no other reason than he happened to knock a girl up when they were 16 years old. He is currently threatening to quit over how he feels he is being portrayed on the tv show Teen Mom OG.

Tyler is not the first Teen Mom franchise star to threaten to quit. Both Jenelle Evans, Leah Messer, Jeremy Calvert and Adam Lind have all threatened to quit over what they consider inflammatory editing by MTV to create ratings. However, none of these individuals have actually quit yet and we doubt that they ever will.

Tyler’s beef is over the fact that a current episode makes it look like his wife Catelynn Lowell was at home with him when she was in fact in Rehab in Arizona. Both Catelynn and Tyler went on to Twitter to express their displeasure with how the show was edited. Catelynn tweeted, “Funny thing is I wasn’t even there. [See] how editing can portray false things?”

A fan asked Tyler via Twitter if he would ever consider quitting Teen Mom OG, and he responded with  “Absolutely!” he wrote. “I’m just a pawn for their ratings, which they manipulate any storyline to get ratings.”

Trying to muster up sympathy for a kid who makes more than most Americans is difficult. Especially a kid that gets paid to basically sit around on his couch and complain and his employer.
