J.Lo Video Scammer Headed to Jail
The Wedding Planner would never stand for this kind of behavior.
One of the two men who allegedly tried to scam Jennifer Lopez into paying $1 million for her stolen wedding video pleaded guilty Wednesday to attempted grand larceny.
A copy of the video chronicling Lopez and Marc Anthony's hush-hush June 2004 ceremony was in a laptop that had been sitting in Anthony's Cadillac Escalade when the SUV was stolen in New Jersey in October 2005. The vehicle was recovered, but the computer stayed missing.
Before contacting Marc Anthony Productions, the alleged extorters reportedly tried to pawn the video off on a handful of celebrity media outlets, but there were no takers.
Tito Moses, 31, admitted in Manhattan's state Supreme Court that he tried to finagle the million-dollar payoff from the couple and that he and his alleged partner in crime, Steven Wortman, 49, eventually negotiated a price of $250,000 with a man whom they thought worked for Lopez and Anthony.
Alas, that man was an undercover detective and police were quick to slap the cuffs on Moses and Wortman when they showed up at a diner in December for the exchange.
Wortman, who, according to police, threatened to destroy the laptop if he didn't get a million bucks, has pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy, attempted grand larceny and criminal possession of stolen property, per the felony complaint filed by prosecutors. His case is pending.
Justice Bonnie Wittner stated in court that Moses would get between one and a half to three years in prison for his crime, but that she would hold off on sentencing until he had faced the music for another ongoing case related to the 2005 Escalade thievery. Then, she said, he could serve the two sentences at the same time.
