Jennifer Williams may no longer be on “Basketball Wives” but the drama that went down between her and Evelyn Lozada is still a big controversy the show may never be able to move forward from. In fact, it’s one of the main reasons Jennifer got the boot from the show in the first place, but getting slapped on national television also led Jennifer to pressing charges on Eveyn’s close friend Nia Crooks and even considering filing a lawsuit. Although Jennifer has reportedly dropped the lawsuit, Nia’s fate regarding possibly serving jail time has now been decided. According to TMZ, Evelyn’s friend won’t serve any jail time. The site reports:
TMZ broke the story … Nia was charged with misdemeanor battery by the Broward County State Attorney’s Office after she pimp slapped the S**t out of co-star Jennifer Williams — and it was all caught by VH1’s cameras.
Nia faced up to a year in jail, but decided to strike a deal with prosecutors (good idea considering the whole “on tape” thing) … and pled no contest.
In exchange she was sentenced to the following: 1-year probation, $645 fine, and ordered to write a letter of apology, stay away from Jennifer and undergo 13 weeks of anger management.
As for Jennifer Williams, she took to Twitter again to make her feelings known about the situation and claims Nia sent the story in herself to TMZ hoping to extend her 15 minutes of fame. Jenn tweets:
Welp, we guess it’s safe to say Jennifer and Nia will never be friends again.
She should have went to jail. Bird.
Another reminder as to why Basketball Wives should not come back for another season.
Cosign.
Nia wasn’t even worth a tweet…
She really wasn’t.
I forgot about all of this! LOL!
I have no interest in this show’s return. VH1 should have cancelled it. Nobody cares anymore and the people who were actually likable were kicked off the show.
Nia CROOKED WIG Crooks need to sit down somewhere. She’s no longer relevant and that ratchet show should have gotten the axe a long time ago.
Girl good bye. Forget jail, you should have gotten slapped right back. And you would have had it been the RIGHT person that day and not Jenn’s scary a-s. The nerve of you.
So I guess Nia will be on the next season. Ugh. I don’t think I’ll be watching.
I have a feeling these ratings are about to be a tragedy. LOL.
LOL at Crooked Wig…Ha you’re a mess girl.
Somebody always beating up on her TALL A@$ she better learn KUNG FU or sum
