Yet another bombshell has dropped in the aftermath of the now infamous Ray Rice incident.
The New Yorker is reporting that the gossip news outlet TMZ paid over $100,000 to get their hands on the footage of Ray Rice's elevator assault on his then-fiance Janay Palmer. According to the paper, TMZ received the footage from a security officer at the casino where the incident unfolded. The guard reportedly taped the footage on his cell phone and called the news agency's tip line. Four days later, video of Rice dragging Palmer out of the elevator was posted for public consumption by TMZ.
